gbondoni

Cover reveal for The Malakiad, coming soon from Dark Owl Press. This is a humorous fantasy novel in which we reveal what it was really like to be a Greek hero, and also the unfortunate truth about why the name of Kopulus, the greatest of the Greek heroes, has only reached us through indirect means…

Plus, a pink sea monster.

As I know everyone is going to want to read this one, I promise to let you know as soon as it’s available!

But first, that cover…

Splinter Launched!

My novel Splinter has been released. Set in the same universe as Outside, this sequel stands alone and explores the themes of artificial intelligence and the future limits of humanity.

Here’s what the publisher has to say about it:

Have Humans lost their Humanity, and Can an Artificial Intelligence Save Them?

The Tau Ceti colony is a Utopia, but tension lurks below the tranquil surface. The peace of the colony is shattered when the Unity spacecraft returns from Earth bearing shocking news.

Rome Permek, computer officer on the ship, returned with a stowaway: Emily Plair, an artificial intelligence from Earth’s cyberworld. But the colony is not the quiet refuge they hoped for. Some in the colony see her as a threat and will resort to anything to have her eliminated.

The colony erupts with the questions: Is artificial intelligence truly alive? What rights do they have? What constitutes a good life?

Follow Rome and Emily as they traverse the broken paradise colony, orbital habitats, virtual environments, and distant worlds.

This book is a sequel to the author’s novel Outside.

THE GEEZER EXPRESS SOLD TO ANDROMEDA SPACEWAYS!

Most times, the sales I celebrate most are the ones that pay most. But some magazines become an objective. Today, I am delighted to announce that, after years and years of trying, I’ve sold a story to Andromeda Spaceways Magazine.

This is something I’ve wanted to do forever, and now that it’s finally happened, I’m ecstatic.

So why was this mag so important to me? Well, back when I started writing, they had the best (by far) online submission system on the planet. Being in Argentina meant snailmail submissions were very tough to do (both because of huge cost, but also because most post offices don’t carry International Reply Coupons). So ASIM’s author-friendly sub system put it at the top of my list.

The story is entitled “The Geezer Express”, and its sale has allowed me to cross off one of my bucket-list items.

Titanic Terastructures Published

The Titanic Terastructures Anthology has launched. This one contains my novella “Land of Opportunity”, which is part of my cyberpunk cycle and is pretty much an origin story for the character that later became Sked (as seen in so many stories and as a character in two novels).

I’ll probably have to put together a collection of his adventures in a year or so when all the rights revert.
