Alan Lennox and the Temp Job of Doom is a featured recommendation on Barnes and Noble’s Nook blog today! That’s pretty damn cool. Much thanks to Kate Danley for recommending me, and for all the kind words (I smell pull quote…). Click the link and pick up her featured book, Maggie for Hire, for free. It’s the first book in an urban fantasy series about a kick-ass magical bounty hunter – I love, love, love it.
Alan Lennox and the Temp Job of Doom, the first book in the series The Future Next Door, is now FREE! I made it free a few days back and it’s been bouncing around on several of Amazon’s top free ebooks list – staying in the top ten for Technothrillers pretty consistently. If you haven’t tried it yet, you’ve got no excuse now!
Alan Lennox has been assigned yet another soul-crushing temp job, keeping him from his first loves – drinking, playing video games, and looking for a boyfriend. But Alan’s new job proves to be anything but boring when his co-workers start turning up dead. The mysterious megacorporation Amalgamated Synergy has taken a deadly interest in Alan and his three roommates, and the hapless quartet are woefully unequipped to deal with the psychotic secretaries, murderous middle managers, and villainous vice-presidents hunting them down. Their investigation leads them deep into Amalgamated Synergy’s headquarters, but can Alan and his friends stay alive long enough to discover who – or what – waits for them on the top floor?
My first book, Alan Lennox and the Temp Job of Doom, is on sale this week (through Sunday 5/11) for just 99 cents! You can also get it for the Kindle, the Nook, iBooks, or Kobo. Book two is already out, so if you like this one you don’t have to wait for the sequel!

Alan Lennox and the Temp Job of Doom is the first book of The Future Next Door, a contemporary urban science fiction comedic thriller series.
Book One: Alan Lennox and the Temp Job of Doom
Book Two: Caitlin Ross and the Commute from Hell
Book Three: Mark Park and the Flume of Destiny (coming 2014)
Book Four: Dakota Bell and the Wastes of Time (coming 2014)
I’ve had the covers for both of my books redone, and here’s the big reveal! (Well, my mailing list got a peek at Alan Lennox and the Temp Job of Doom earlier this month, but this is the first appearance of the new cover for Caitlin Ross and the Commute from Hell.)
While I love the original covers, the feedback I was getting was that they weren’t necessarily giving new readers the clearest idea of the books’ genres. I’m thrilled with these new ones – I think they just scream “contemporary urban science fiction comedic thriller,” don’t you?
If you’re a fan of the originals, they’ll remain as the covers to the paperbacks for some time yet – these new ones are just on the e-books, for now. But hurry if you want them – I’ll be updating the paperback covers too at some point before the release of book three, Mark Park and the Flume of Destiny, this summer.
Oh, you want to buy them? Thanks! Here are some links for you:

Caitlin Ross is on track to be the action star she’s always wanted to be. She’s got the lead in a new play at a downtown theater, she’s got a handsome, successful boyfriend, and she’s picked up some killer new martial arts skills. But after a missing teen reappears outside her theater, disfigured and violent, Caitlin finds that there’s more to being a hero than just throwing punches. When mysterious portals start hurling her friends around New York City and into danger, Caitlin will have to make the ultimate sacrifice to keep her loved ones safe. If she survives long enough to discover the truth behind their teleporting tormentors, can Caitlin avoid the monstrous fate awaiting her in the theater’s basement?
