“Book Descriptions: The year is 1977. Professor Sherwood has gone missing. Between working at the library and playing gigs in Fort Worth holes-in-the-wall after hours, Steven and his pal Randy set out to discover why, unwittingly summoning a demon and setting into motion a chain of astonishing events that could put the entire world at risk of total destruction.
In the tradition of Roger Zelazny and Jack Vance comes the debut of a deftly comedic voice capable of circling back to dread in a moment, one strong enough to carry the crackle of North Texas before the oil bust, the solitude of youth spent under the wide prairie skies, resolving in a crescendo of album-oriented rock radio and dire conflict between the hard-bitten optimism of the natives of this strange land and something far more alien and sinister.
"As captivating as the works of Jim Butcher. Told by a character drawn with the depth of Jack Vance. It brings to mind my first time reading through the Dungeon Master's Guide. My father would have certainly added JB Jackson to his Appendix N." -- Ernie G. Gygax, Jr.
The second book in the De re dordica saga, Ursula of Ulm, was published August 2024.” DRIVE
