Brainjacked

In a future where oligarchy rules, a team of elite cyborg operators from the U.S. Space Force must recover or destroy the wreckage of a crashed communications satellite before it falls into unfriendly corporate hands. But someone hacks their systems, seizes control of their neuroprosthetic limbs, and forces them to kill each other. As unknown, inhuman enemies close in, two crippled survivors must hold out somehow until evac arrives. This is my twelfth published story, appearing in the anthology SNAFU Punk'd.

The McAllister Hall Massacre

Northern Ireland, 1972.  "The Troubles," the bitter war of terror between Catholic republicans and Protestant loyalists, is tearing the province apart. A loyalist religious fanatic targeted by the Provisional Irish Republican Army holes up in his fortified country estate, guarded by a hard-bitten team of mercenaries who once served in the French Foreign Legion. One cold, foggy night they come under attack, but by something altogether more terrible than IRA hitmen and older than Christianity itself. This is my eleventh published story, appearing in the anthology SNAFU Holy War.

The Valley of Death

North Africa, summer 1942. The British Eighth Army is dug in at El Alamein. If the German Afrika Korps can break through they can overrun Egypt and capture the Suez Canal, maybe even reach the oil fields of the Middle East. A reconnaissance team from the 21st Panzer Division ventures into the treacherous salt marshes of the vast Qattara Depression, an impassable quagmire. The Germans learn of a path through it known only by the Bedouins, a route that may allow the panzers to outflank the British defenses. But there's a reason why the Arabs call Qattara the Valley of Death - and marshes, British patrols, and the relentless desert sun will prove to be the least of their worries. This was my fifth published story and appeared in the anthology SNAFU Unnatural Selection.

The Secret War

The Soviet Union, winter 1942. The unspoken conflict had lasted for over twenty years. In the dead of winter, when the nights were longest, the things emerged from holes in the vast, frozen forests of Siberia, hungry for human flesh. Ghouls they were called, but just exactly what they were and why they appeared, no one knew. Stalin's ruthless security troops failed to eradicate them, so the bloody task fell to a special Red Army unit - Spetsgruppa X - comprised of soldiers who were hunters and trappers in civilian life, men who knew how to survive and fight in the primordial wilderness. This was my fourth published story and appeared in the anthology SNAFU Hunters.

All they know is that they will rendezvous with a special SS detachment with secret orders from Heinrich Himmler himself. This was my second published story and appears in the anthology SNAFU.
