September Release - Cold Blooded 8: Rule of Nightmare!

I am pushing near 50K words in Cold Blooded VIII: Rule of Nightmare. My new Nick McCarty and John Harding crossover event will be released in late September. Here is the new cover and blurb.

John Harding's Monsters and Nick McCarty's Unholy Trio crew continue forging the new City of Hope with refugees formerly tearing the UK apart. Ripped from Islam, the people find hope through force of arms, freedom, and independence. The City of Hope's social site revelations of progress begin turning the Islamic world upside down.

After Harding and McCarty's crews return home from mission once again, repercussions from the shadowy Sharia Law financiers hit with a vengeance. Hell bent on destroying the force providing an alternative to Islam's Death Cult, they run headlong into their worst nightmare. The teams cruise to Vancouver for a confrontation with Amir Mohammed Kostler.


Interrogation of Kostler reveals a treasonous connection in the Senate, complicating matters at home. Sonny’s parents again become involved in a political morass, threatening their lives. As Nick’s wife, Rachel, states, Sonny must have been stolen from a hospital by Phil and Clarice. Nick has to figure a way to keep them alive as the Senator they betrayed decides Sonny’s con artist parents are too much of a liability to live.

Thanks, Charles. This one is proving to be as much fun as 'The Isle of Darkness'. :)

I am loving all of your books! Read all of the Hard Case 1-9, and am now in the middle of the Nick McCarty series. Also excellent!

I stay up way too late reading, and only stop when my Kindle runs out of juice. Then I switch to the Kindle app on my phone to continue reading.

Great stories, and enjoy the humor in the midst of all the chaos. Not sure what I will do when I finish every one of your books. I may have to start over again.

(If you ever need help with a blog on your own domain, let me know. I do the sites for Jerry Pournelle and John D Brown so that they can keep writing without worrying about the geeky stuff (so I can read new stuff). Email me if interested. )

Thanks, Rick, I'm glad you're enjoying the novels. :)

Just went from cold blooded book five to book six, what happened? All of a sudden there are all of these extra characters and a whole battle aboard a ship I am missing! Was there a book 5.5 ?

C Enroughty. Here is the sequence for the crossover events in my Cold Blooded and Hard Case series. Readers flooded me with requests for crossovers between Nick McCarty's Unholy Trio and John Harding's Monster Squad. I gave in and began writing them in this order.

HardCase and ColdBlooded Crossover Sequence

1. Hard Case Book 7: Red Waves
2. Cold Blooded Book 6: Red Horizon
3. Hard Case Book 8: Kingdom of Hell
4. Cold Blooded Book 7: Hell on Earth
5. Hard Case Book 9: Isle of Darkness
6. Cold Blooded Book 8: Rule of Nightmare

I would recommend you read the entire Hard Case series, because of the number of characters and their origins. If you liked Cold Blooded, I believe you'll like Hard Case too.
