AARON SMITH ON THE BOOKCAVE

New Pulp writer Aaron Smith is the guest on the current episode of THE BOOKCAVE; a podcast hosted by Ric Croxton and Art Sippo covering the world of pulps.

(http://thebookcave.libsyn.com/)

It is episode # 244.

Aaron talks about his latest work for Airship 27 Productions, a novella in the new QUATERMAIN - The New Aventures available now at Amazon.com in both hard copy and on Kindle.

McCAULEY WINS AWARD!


Airship 27 author Terrence McCauley has won a Stalker Award for the Most Criminally Underrated Author. It was presented by the blog, Pop Culture Nerd, and more than 1,900 crime-fiction fans voted for their favorite books and authors in the 3rd annual Stalker Award. More information on the award can be found at http://networkedblogs.com/OiPJB

McCauley won the award for his Airship 27 novel, Prohibition, as well as for his other work.

"Sometimes an award is most aptly named as this case. Terrence McCauley is one of the finest new crime novelist on the scene today and it is high time readers discovered this guy."
Ron Fortier Managing Editor Airship 27 Productions

Peter Rozovsky of the blog Detectives Beyond Borders, recently wrote that "McCauley harks back to [authors] Dashiell Hammett and Paul Cain (and to writers and movie makers who harked back to Hammett and Cain). While his book's themes of loyalty, doubt, and betrayal are confined to no one era, the cover of the novel...quite accurately reflects the early- and mid-twentieth-century gats 'n' gloves mythos to which McCauley makes a modern-day contribution."

McCauley lives in Amenia, NY, near the Bronx. He graduated from Fordham University in 1996. McCauley is the Manager of Government and Community Relations for MTA Metro-North Railroad.

The publisher of Prohibition, Airship 27 Productions, is among the leading publishers of the New Pulp Movement, keeping alive the classic pulp literature of the 30s and 40s while producing newer pulp themed titles by today’s brightest writers and artists. The publisher now offers sixty novels and anthologies, and all titles are available digitally via Amazon’s Kindle as well as at several other outlets. Some are available as e-books.

OUR TITLES IN BOOKSTORES




vid Airmen of Airship 27 E-Blast #5

Did you know that your local bookstore(s) can carry Airship 27 titles on their shelves?

The first step is to give the e-address  -
 ( http://robmdavis.com/Airship27Hangar/airship27hangar.html) of our on-line Airship 27 bookstore to the merchant. They can choose as few or as many titles to order as they wish at a special, non-returnable, bookstore discount!

Step two: After they choose the titles they want and the number of copies of each title, ask your bookstore to place their order with Rob Davis at robmdavis@me.com.

In fact, the easiest second step might be just to print off this e-blast with the addresses for your bookstore!!

Onward and upward, Airmen!
