Anybody need a DemonTech fix?
Posted: 16 Mar 09 9:28 AM
Soon after I turned in Gulf Run, the third DemonTech novel, in anticipation of a new contract, I wrote the prolog and an outline for the rest of the series. Alas, we all know what happened to that. BUT! I did have the prolog. So when writer/editor Mike McPhail asked me for a story for his anthology of original milSF stories, So It Begins, I showed him that prolog. He liked it well enough to have it lead off the anthology, which has just been released. You can find it at Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/So-Begins-David-Sherman/dp/0979690153/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1237213412&sr=1-1

You'll notice, my name is the lead. Wow.

I hope this get's Del Rey's attention again, they published the series correct? I really hope you get to write another Deamon Tech, it was really good.
The Prime Master read the message again. This time, by the time he finished reading, he smiled beatifically. The message included a great deal of information about the Earthman Army and airpower and their tactics. This was inteligence that would serve the Emperor's army well when it next encountered the Earthman Army. As it most assuredly would.......

Skink, in order for So It Begins to have any impact on Del Rey reconsidering a new contract for DemonTech, the book would have to sell thousands of copies, based on my story being in it. Are you doing your part in getting sales for the book?

Yes. I ordered it from Amazon.com. Still hasn't arrived yet. And I told that ex Force Recon Marine in my class about StarFist, and he's already on book 6! It took him three days each to read one book.

Thank you, Skink! Now if several thousand more DemonTech fans will only follow your example, there just might be another DemonTech novel one of these days.
