Well, we’re here the morning after the big sports ball game and some of you are commiserating a loss while others are still celebrating. And I’m sure there’s another third who just don’t care about the game whatsoever. No matter what, I hope you had a great weekend.

This Week’s New Releases

Title: Callsign: Talon
Series: Fueled By Fury Book 1
Release Date: 02/10/2025

A scrawny pilot vows to master the art of mech combat…

The Wolverines thought David Wayne was too scrawny to pilot a mech. They laughed in his face, telling him he needed more muscle and, hell, maybe a mustache to be worthy.

But they underestimated the furious spark of ambition that burned inside.

Driven by the sting of their ridicule, David teams up with his sarcastic AI, Tabitha, and a crew of overlooked society rejects, transforming scrap into a weapon that defies all expectations.

He’ll forge his own path by creating a mech unlike anything they’ve ever seen: fast, deadly, and fueled by the pure, unadulterated fury of being told he couldn’t.

Talon is a high-octane ride, where one pilot will obliterate the notion that you have to be a hulking brute to dominate in combat.

The bigger the mechs, the harder they will fall, and David is ready to make them all crash and burn or DIE TRYING.
