Signal Boost ~ End of August Edition!

Find it Here!


September is almost here! Finally, after a far too hot summer we can look forward to autumn just around the bend. To celebrate, let us have a look at some newer books released that might be right up your alley! NewPub never sleeps!

We will begin with the above book, Body and Blood, by Michael Gallagher. As always with NewPub, it's a weird one!

Here is the description:

Father James Keenan and Father Akono Nwosu are men of faith in a world with its back to God. A world where an umoored humanity stumbles along searching for meaning. Here, every tarot parlor in the Psychic District offers an easy answer, the forces of Hell itself roam the streets and interparish gang tensions constantly threaten to boil over.

The only ones keeping a lid on it all are the warrior-priests who wield the Rite of Exorcism as a weapon in a spiritual war that rages all around us.

Negotiating peace between the local gangs, running the soup kitchen and finishing the parish bulletins were difficult enough. Now kids are disappearing off the streets, churches are being vandalized with an ominous symbol, and everyone has a feeling that strange woman in the Black Hollow Projects is behind it all, but are too afraid to say anything.

Fearing for the safety of their flock, Keenan and Nwosu must now race to discover the fate of the kids, knowing that all of this happening right around a once-in-a-lifetime feast day devoted to an ancient life-hating demon can’t be a coincidence.

Once again, you can find Body and Blood here.

Next up we have the twelfth (!) book in Declan Finn's supernatural cop saga, Saint Tommy, NYPD, called Blue Saint. Since Silver Empire closed up shop, he has had to move his entire series over to Tuscany Bay Books. and it looks as if he is finally back up to date!

This is the description of Blue Saint:

When his local church is destroyed by supernatural means, NYPD Lt Tommy Nolan finds himself besieged by old enemies hellbent on revenge. This time, Hell will see Nolan dead, whatever the cost, and destroy his city with him.

What will Nolan risk to stop the coming onslaught?

Blue Saint is up for preorder now, which you can find here, but the eleventh book, Dark Web, is out today! You can get that at this very moment. The series is still going strong.

Here is the description of Dark Web:

When a Christian internet celebrity is kidnapped, Tommy Nolan must team up with a ghost from his past in order to battle the horrors lurking in the Dark Web, including a drug dealer peddling supernatural powders, Chinese nationals wielding supernatural weapons, and a Private Military Contractor staffed with witches.

No worries, just another day in the life of a living Saint.

Dark Web can be found here.

We covered Kit Sun Cheah's first book in his Saga of the Swordbreaker series, Dawn of the Broken Sword, on a previous signal boost. As of now, the second book has released and it is time to see just what has changed in this crazy universe!

He has attempted to make a series of martial arts magic without the all too common video game tropes of the modern age, something we can all be grateful for. Be sure to check out the Saga of the Swordbreaker series today!

Here is the description for book 2, Lord of Beasts:

When beasts swarm the Central Plains, the city-state of Yudu issues a call for aid. Martial cultivators from across Xiazhou descend on Yudu, chasing dreams of wealth and glory. Among them is Li Ming and his fellow biaohang from Dayong.

Shattered by recent losses, Dayong needs to rebuild their reputation, earn much-needed revenue and expand their influence. But when they arrive, what was supposed to be a straightforward beast hunt spirals out of control.

Old foes and new enemies crawl out of the woodwork. The beasts themselves are acting strangely. And from the shadows comes a plot to overturn the world of the rivers and lakes.

Surrounded by chaos and conspiracy, Li Ming and his allies must plunge into the fray and unmask those who seek to become the Lord of Beasts.

Author's Note: This series is not a power fantasy. There are no LitRPG / GameLit elements, no unconventional relationships, and no sexual content. It is, quite simply, a cultivation story—in the actual sense of the term.

Once again, you can find it here!

Finally today we will take a look at the newest book in Karina Fabian's DragonEye, PI series. This is a series about a dragon named Vern from the faerie world stuck in the mundane and has to make his way as a servant of the good. This is the third book in the series and, as you might be able to tell, has a bit of comedic edge to the proceedings. The first entry in the series was called Murder Most Picante and can be found here.

Here is the description for book three, Nun of My Business:

When a Faerie nun shoves a piece of music under Vern’s nose and insists it’s an evil spell, he has some doubts as to her mental stability. But work is scarce for a dragon detective on the wrong side of the Interdimensional Gap, and if Sister Grace McCarthy wants to pay his bills for a wild goose chase, who is he to argue? Unfortunately, Vern is not the only one with concerns about Grace’s sanity. When a child accuses the nun of hexing her voice, the city is in an uproar, and Vern has to uncover the truth – for Grace, for himself, and for the fate of the Faerie and Mundane universes.

Is the song just annoying? Or is it a summoning spell from the depths of hell? And how does a shell-shocked nun who refuses to sing fit in the equation – and Vern’s life?

You can find Nun of My Business here!

That's it for today! Thankfully you made it through August and even have some killer books to check into next. Sometimes it's the small things, right? Don't worry, fall is just around the corner and we can finally bid this insufferable heat goodbye.

As for myself, I'm still working on the same projects as before, not as as fast as I would like, and dealing with some behind the scenes trouble at the same time. Hopefully we'll get past it and get back on track again. It's been quite the year!

That said, I hope you're having a great summer, and are doing great. We've got some good times ahead, so let's look forward to them!

Up next: September!
