Volume 7, Issue 6. In This Issue:Talking Fantasy With John MarcoBestselling fantasy novelist John Marco became known for his brilliantly written battle scenes and his fascinating characters in his award-winning Tyrants and Kings series. His latest book is The Devil's Armor (DAW), the sequel to his new epic fantasy series which began with The Eyes of God, an Arthurian-inspired tale of love, loss, war, and redemption. This new fantasy series has critics raving, and is picking up new readers for the author; The Devil's Armor is a Top Pick from Romantic Times magazine. In this exclusive interview, John talks about his inspiration for The Devil's Armor, reaching out to a female audience, and what he thinks makes a real-life hero. A Conversation With Gary Tigerman Is the government covering up information about aliens and UFOs? Why haven't we been back to moon since the early 1970s? What is the proposed missile defense shield really for? Gary Tigerman weaves conspiracy theories such as those espoused in The X-Files with a series of well-documented facts to create his compelling debut novel, The Orion Protocol (William Morrow). In our exclusive interview, Tigerman discusses his inspiration for his new book, his career as a child actor, his imprisonment for refusing to fight in the Vietnam War and why he thinks that the space program is more important than ever today.
