    The final four novellas in the saga of Jack Laramie see the fifties fading and the turbulent sixties on the horizon. Jack experiences what the country will eventually encounter, from LSD to murderous government agents. This is Texas Noir as it's never quite been imagined before; Steeped in the traditions of the Old West while boldly looking ahead at a nation restless for social upheaval. Jack Laramie, stoic and pragmatic, takes on each challenge with an open mind and a fierce determination to restore good wherever evil challenges him. Take this final ride with authors Garnett Elliott, Alec Cizak, and the creator of the Drifter Detective, David Cranmer. Praise for Volume One: "Set in the Pinkerton era out west, Laramie battles the elements, his aging mobile HQ, and a captivating assortment of characters and cases as he drifts through Texas doling out justice on thin margins and slim chances" - Richard Krauss, Editor-in-Chief, The Digest Enthusiast "Peopled with characters as dry and dusty as the Texas they're set in, the feeling of noir aesthetics still seeps from the pages" - Mark Stratton

    Somewhere after the 2036 elections, civil war broke out in the United States. In the region now known as South California, the Mutual Organization dictates every aspect of citizens' lives. One family entertains the masses, each member of the family being played by different actors as time goes on. A veteran of the civil war named Teo Paz, who has suffered a severe ringing in his left ear since the conflict, one day notices that each version of the song "Sunshine Manifesto" sounds exactly the same, despite claims by the Mutual Organization that each version of the song is different. He makes the mistake of telling a coworker his suspicion and his life and identity are forever changed.In the tradition of We, Brave New World, 1984, and Fahrenheit 451, author Ronin Heck fashions a scathing critique of modern society in the form of a warning about the future. Heck simultaneously delivers satire and reprimand. If we do not heed this cautionary tale, hope for a human future is all but lost.Praise for SAME SONG, DIFFERENT BEAT: "Ronin Heck's grasp of grotesque future lunacy rivals the very best of Philip K. Dick. It is bleak, achingly vivid and deeply provocative. Like all effective dystopian works, its imagined tomorrow reminds us a lot of today."- Copper Smith, author of Re-emergence: Book One of The Surviving The Blaze Series and Unnamed Future"Grinding and hitching through the trash heaps of a near-future America, Heck summons a putrid-scented world of misguided desire, confusion, and societal brain rot. Same Song, Different Beat exists in that same special category of creative work that includes Dan Erickson's Severance, David Lynch's Lost Highway, and Charlie Kaufman's Antkind."- Colin Jones, author of Project: Sleepless Dream"A deliciously dark and gripping post-apocalyptic tale reminiscent of Philip K Dick."- Mark Richardson, author of The Sun Casts No Shadow

    This debut collection of poetry from John Kojak will make you laugh, cry, and reach for the bottle. His writing doesn't pull any punches or rely on syrupy metaphors. The poems are easily readable and highly relatable to anyone who has lived, loved, and lost. Doughnut Shaded Sunsets is a call to arms against fakery and pretension. Instead of the usual abstractions and vagueness that often fill the pages of modern poetry collections, Kojak's new collection is full of clear-eyed wit and devastating honesty. The writing is razor-sharp and poignant. At times gritty, at times savagely funny, I enjoyed spending time in this world of angst, drunkenness, and lonely ruminations. -C.W. Blackwell, award-winning writer and author of River Street Rhapsody and Song of The Red Squire Doughnut Shaded Sunsets is a biting yet tender, dark yet funny, cynical, and extremely bingeable collection. -B.F. Jones, author and co-editor of Punk Noir Magazine
