A dying heiress desperate to find a cure for her disease...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When these stories collide on the same Martian night the results are not only explosive but deadly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The author of Star Trek: Titan: Sword of Damocles presents an original tale of murder and magic set in a future that is both familiar and strange.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's the cover:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_lP_kaL1JPgI/SzJJJz43_KI/AAAAAAAAAQw/y-SQ3o9wljs/s1600-h/redshiftcover.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 250px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_lP_kaL1JPgI/SzJJJz43_KI/AAAAAAAAAQw/y-SQ3o9wljs/s400/redshiftcover.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5418473734576536738" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;here's the link: &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0031ERD5M"&gt;AMAZON&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's another for all you non-Kindle-using folks:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/7665"&gt;SMASHWORDS&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And here's me wishing all of you a happy holiday season. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seeya in 2010.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11700303-1239593548087442478?l=redjacknews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://redjacknews.blogspot.com/feeds/1239593548087442478/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11700303&amp;postID=1239593548087442478' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11700303/posts/default/1239593548087442478'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11700303/posts/default/1239593548087442478'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://redjacknews.blogspot.com/2009/12/kindle-tastic.html' title='KINDLE-TASTIC!'/><author><name>Geoff Thorne</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TpvUMHfMAz0/TYTgTfpRO1I/AAAAAAAAAUw/MZ_WcCDVApI/s220/winterman%2Blogo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_lP_kaL1JPgI/SzJJJz43_KI/AAAAAAAAAQw/y-SQ3o9wljs/s72-c/redshiftcover.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11700303.post-7304125262164797732</id><published>2009-12-09T11:04:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-09T11:06:58.856-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Comic Book Resources did an article on the me, Todd and PRODIGAL that's up now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do everyone a favor and take a look.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://comicbookresources.com/?page=article&amp;id=23984"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;RIGHT HERE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11700303-7304125262164797732?l=redjacknews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://redjacknews.blogspot.com/feeds/7304125262164797732/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11700303&amp;postID=7304125262164797732' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11700303/posts/default/7304125262164797732'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11700303/posts/default/7304125262164797732'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://redjacknews.blogspot.com/2009/12/comic-book-resources-did-article-on-me.html' title=''/><author><name>Geoff Thorne</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TpvUMHfMAz0/TYTgTfpRO1I/AAAAAAAAAUw/MZ_WcCDVApI/s220/winterman%2Blogo.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11700303.post-1181910182346191077</id><published>2009-11-25T01:04:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-25T01:04:34.818-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Sneak Peek</title><content type='html'>This is only half of the first issue of PRODIGAL: EGG OF FIRST LIGHT.

The purpose of the pairing is for the two of us to tell certain sorts of stories together that we might not otherwise attempt. Our first project is PRODIGAL: EGG OF FIRST LIGHT a two-issue mini series being published by APE ENTERTAINMENT in February 2010.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is what we like to call chock full of fun and ass-kickery. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no spandex. There are no super heroes. There are no secret identities. And yet we think this book will appeal not only to mainstream comic book fans but also anyone who just loves a good old action-adventure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's the cover for Issue one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3492/3971030096_d0603fb091_o.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 573px;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3492/3971030096_d0603fb091_o.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For updates and cool stuff about the creation of this book (and Genre 19 itself) click the GENRE 19 link on the right.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let the games begin!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11700303-4370610933929347573?l=redjacknews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://redjacknews.blogspot.com/feeds/4370610933929347573/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11700303&amp;postID=4370610933929347573' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11700303/posts/default/4370610933929347573'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11700303/posts/default/4370610933929347573'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://redjacknews.blogspot.com/2009/10/genre-of-apes.html' title='The Genre of Apes'/><author><name>Geoff Thorne</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TpvUMHfMAz0/TYTgTfpRO1I/AAAAAAAAAUw/MZ_WcCDVApI/s220/winterman%2Blogo.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11700303.post-4471615159754384430</id><published>2009-07-28T08:45:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-07-28T08:45:46.168-07:00</updated><title type='text'>SPINNER RACK COMICS</title><content type='html'>So I contributed a story to this trade paperback that compiles a year's worth of the excellent HONOR BRIGADE comic book.

Lea, published by Peryton Press. And I really liked it. I thought at first that it was just a collection of superhero short stories, but it is actually a shared world anthology with a progression to the stories that makes sense by the time you've read it all. These are authors with much less fear in them than I have. When asked to do a superhero story, I turned in a modest tale about a relatively low powered teenage girl with a few personal problems. These authors tackle the big issues--right and wrong, power vs. responsibility, and the fate of the planet.

It's not good.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My friend and sometime mentor, MARCO PALMIERI, was let go from his job at SIMON &amp; SCHUSTER along with 34 others in what was, I'm sure, the aftermath of some furious salary crunching. I know nothing of these matters and won't opine but I do know what Marco has meant to my professional life (and therefore my non-pro life).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had just come in second in the now sadly defunct STRANGE NEW WORLDS contest and had pounded Marco's e-mailbox with pitch after pitch which were each quickly (though not cruelly) rejected.  After what I had thought was a pretty auspicious beginning, I had sunk to the depths that only a person who's had their nose to the dining hall glass and been allowed to watch the feast but not participate can really ever know. That's a sucky place to be, man. Believe you me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then, out of nowhere, he offered me a slot in an upcoming anthology that another writer had vacated for some reason (still unknown to me). I jumped on it and, without going into too much detail, that began what was, to date, the most exciting and mind-wrenching period of my creative life. I got to write that story and one more for Marco and, eventually, my first published novel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you're not a writer you'll not have a real idea of what any of this means emotionally. The word milestone is a microscopic description. Inadequate to the thing it attempts to encapsulate as E=MC2 is inadequate to describe the Theory it's come to represent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We like to claim, some of us, that everything we write is the sole property of our private creative muse, that no hand or eye was instrumental in the carving of the final distributed product that delights (or disgusts, I suppose) our fans. Not so. At least, not so in my case.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Marco is that best kind of editor, in my opinion, he functions like a sort of literary ninja or, maybe, surgeon, using tiny cuts and incisions to the various drafts that shape the whole into things unplanned by the author.  Things unplanned and, again, in m case, often superior. At least that's how he was with me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The 3ish years (aggregate) I worked with Marco taught me more about writing than the previous two decades combined.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And that's the crux. I'm a better writer now, by far, than I was when I met him. Yeah, he did a lot to expand the STAR TREK line both in breadth and depth. Yeah, his tenure will be looked on the way we look on eras of the filmed versions of the property and that with appropriate admiration. But he made ME a better writer and that's what counts to me.  He kicked ass, as they say in my neighborhood. Kicked and took names. I'm happy mine was one of them. Lucky, in fact.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's sort of selfish to say it this way, I suppose, making this thing about him about his impact on me. He's the one with the heavy load right now, after all. But the thing is, you don't really do anything that matters in life beyond leaving your mark on other people. Nothing else matters as far as I'm concerned and Marco certainly made his mark on me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There's no higher praise I think a  writer can give to an editor than "You made me better." More than that, he made it look easy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know things will work out fine in his end of the world. The wheel always turns and to be pessimistic about the turning is to waste one's intellect. An editor I know told me that once, or words to that effect. And they are true.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But this is a closed chapter and I'd like to mark it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's the most important news this week. Something else soon, I think.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Happy Hols, kids.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11700303-4684570995245103399?l=redjacknews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://redjacknews.blogspot.com/feeds/4684570995245103399/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11700303&amp;postID=4684570995245103399' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11700303/posts/default/4684570995245103399'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11700303/posts/default/4684570995245103399'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://redjacknews.blogspot.com/2008/12/well.html' title=''/><author><name>Geoff Thorne</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TpvUMHfMAz0/TYTgTfpRO1I/AAAAAAAAAUw/MZ_WcCDVApI/s220/winterman%2Blogo.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11700303.post-5124401316535037526</id><published>2008-08-05T21:12:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-05T21:16:56.466-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Honor Brigade</title><content type='html'>So, I wasn't sure if I'd posted this already or not but I think not.

There's violence, drug use, sex and more violence. And a lot of so-called &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;strong language&lt;/span&gt;. This isn't a selling point. It's an actual warning to people who like my STAR TREK work and would come here expecting something similar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;DON'T. This is almost the precise opposite of STAR TREK.

Titan. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Time travel, folding space and self-sacrifice all feature, as it seems that Riker and Troi may be separated forever. Geoffrey Thorne uses Titan's multi-racial crew to great effect, and builds on the sterling work already done with this series.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; 3 out of 4&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It sucks that those guys were let go.

It's happening. The virus is in the system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With little or no fanfare I launched Geoffrey Thorne's THE DARK, because I'm a masochist and  because I, apparently, have WAY too much time on my hands. And now, reviews are beginning to surface.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is a sample.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;"First up, I’d like to bring something to your attention. I’ve recently been introduced to a website that’s doing something pretty awesome. The guy running the show is named Geoffrey Thorne and his show is called The Dark. I’m not sure that there’s a definition for what he’s doing yet. Sort of episodic television presented on the internet, I guess that’s a good definition. The stuff they’re putting together is really exciting. "&lt;/i&gt;- A.C. HALL - PAPERBACK READER.COM&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;"Actually , I found it quite interesting. ... I'd say its a nice little project and worthy of a look.

There should be an official announcement around May 1st but I can say right now that it involves superheroes and violence. SHOCKING, I know, but there it is. More details once I'm allowed to spill them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Comic book thing #2: Contracts have arrived and are being gone over. No SPBs, no spandex. Just straight-out scifi in the Michael Crichton vein.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Set: Still on hold for reasons unknown&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Novel thing: Still in process. Should have freedom to give specifics soon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;New thing: A web comic venture, free to all, done by me and another guy I know who's wicked talented. More on that as the launch gets closer. This thing is going to KILL and, best of all, you won't have to pay for it (unless one of the bigs picks us up and then, cha-CHING!).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;STAR TREK: VOYAGER: DISTANT SHORES, containing my story OR THE TIGER (and stacks of others by the other fine contributors), is out in many retail stores and buyable from AMAZON right now. Go buy it. It makes my publisher and my editor like me better when you do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And you want people to like me, right?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sure you do.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11700303-113045081329837576?l=redjacknews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://redjacknews.blogspot.com/feeds/113045081329837576/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11700303&amp;postID=113045081329837576' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11700303/posts/default/113045081329837576'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11700303/posts/default/113045081329837576'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://redjacknews.blogspot.com/2005/10/all-hollowed-steve.html' title='All Hollowed Steve'/><author><name>Geoff Thorne</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TpvUMHfMAz0/TYTgTfpRO1I/AAAAAAAAAUw/MZ_WcCDVApI/s220/winterman%2Blogo.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11700303.post-112880361606523338</id><published>2005-10-08T13:30:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2005-10-08T13:33:36.076-07:00</updated><title type='text'>(not so) Distant Shores</title><content type='html'>An official publication date has been announced for STAR TREK: VOYAGER: DISTANT SHORES. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;November 20th of this year.
