The J. B. Collins Collection: The Third Target / The First Hostage / Without Warning
Joel C. Rosenberg - 2017
B. Collins together into one e-book for a great value!The Third TargetWhen New York Times foreign correspondent J. B. Collins hears rumors that an al-Qaeda splinter cell—ISIS—has captured a cache of chemical weapons inside Syria, he knows this is a story he must pursue at all costs. With terrorist forces trying to bring down two Arab governments and the U.S. president about to make a trip to the region, can Collins uncover the terrorists’ plot before it’s too late?The First Hostage“The president of the United States . . . is missing.” With these words, New York Times journalist J. B. Collins puts the entire world on high alert. The leaders of Israel and Palestine are critically injured, Jordan’s king is fighting for his life, and the U.S. president is missing and presumed captured. Working with the Secret Service, Collins must locate and rescue the leader of the free world before ISIS’s threats become a catastrophic reality.Without Warning (2017 Christy Award finalist, Mystery/Suspense/Thriller category)As he prepares to deliver the State of the Union address, the president of the United States is convinced ISIS is on the run. But with the Middle East on fire, the Israeli prime minister dead, and Amman in ruins, journalist J. B. Collins fears a catastrophic attack inside the American homeland is imminent. He argues that only an all-out manhunt to capture or kill the leader of ISIS can stop the attack and save America before it’s too late.
The March: A Forgotten Legion short story
Ben Kane - 2018
PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A SHORT STORY, NOT A FULL LENGTH NOVEL. ABOUT THE SHORT STORY’S PRICE: Hello, you lovely people. Odd to talk about money straight up, but I know that some of you might be thinking, £2.49 is a lot for a short story. Let me explain how it works. A rate of 20% VAT (Value Added Tax) applies to eBooks in the UK. This doesn’t apply to ‘real’ paper books. That means 42p of the £2.49 goes straight to the British government. Amazon takes around 5p to deliver the story to your Kindle, then takes another 61p as its cut. The remainder, £1.41, goes in the ratio 75% to Park in the Past* – that’s £1.06 for each story sold – and 25% to me, which means I will get 35p. Not much, but it’s just to cover my time. Once the figures are broken down, the total price doesn’t seem that high, to me at least. I hope you agree. Think of it in terms of a pint of beer or a cup of coffee: they cost £2-4, depending on where you live. This story will give you more enjoyment (I think!) than either of those things, and last for a longer time, and cost you less money. Plus you’re helping to build a Roman fort in Britain, the likes of which has not been seen in almost two millennia! *Park in the Past is an extraordinary project in northwest Britain – near Chester, just over the border in Wales. Set on a 120 acre site in the beautiful Welsh countryside, it aims to build a second century AD Roman marching fort. I’ve managed to raise more than £20,000 for the project, but as you can appreciate a lot more is needed. Please visit the Park’s site at www.parkinthepast.org.uk – and donate if you can. Even a small donation makes a huge difference. Thank you! This is a first for me, self-publishing a short story. It’s been an exciting project since the day I did the poll on Facebook, asking you lovely people which of my characters you wanted me to write about. The character from the Forgotten Legion won out, narrowly, and this is the result. The one hundred and something people who backed the Kickstarter campaign got to read this story almost 9 months ago, but now you can too. Enjoy the story, and please email me if you have any questions about it or anything else – ben@benkane.net Ben

GET DRESSED!” Candice pulled on a robe and slippers and Jimmy pulled on her arm. “JIMMY!” “COME ON MOM, WE DON’T HAVE MUCH LONGER!!” Candice saw terror in Jimmy’s eyes as he released her arm and ran out of the door to the apartment. “Jimmy, wait!” “COME ON!” Candice saw him run down the flight of stairs to the front door of the building and go outside. She ran after him as fast as she could and found him waiting for her outside the entrance. He grabbed her hand and pulled her with all his strength toward the end of the street. She stopped him and said, “WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!” Jimmy released her hand and ran as fast as his legs would carry him. “JIMMY, STOP!” She was forced to run after him and as they arrived at the end of the street, she heard a huge blast over her shoulder that caused her to stumble forward and as she felt heat on her back. She continued chasing Jimmy until he stopped two blocks away. She reached him and lifted him into her arms. She turned around and saw their apartment building and the two buildings next to it burning in huge flames that lept high into the nighttime sky. Her eyes were wide open as she watched the flames begin spreading into the surrounding buildings. She looked at Jimmy shaking in fear of what had just happened and said, “How did you know?” “I had a dream.” Let me know what you think by contacting me at saxonandrew@msn.com Find us on Facebook at saxonandrewsuniverse.
