BOOK 22: BLUE POWDER WAR
by Walter Knight
Fiction: Science Fition, Military, Humor
In the twenty-second installment
of this preposterous science fiction series, Colonel Joey R. Czerinski still has
his hands full, trying to keep the drug trade and the Arthropodan spider
commander under control on planet New Colorado. After Major Manny Lopez used
the time machine to bring two grade-A cookers from the past to concoct a
special recipe of blue powder to be distributed on New Colorado, the drug trade
has really exploded.
With Legion enlistments down,
the draft is reinstituted, and Czerinski plucks likely victims from every
quarter as his Polish ancestry rears its ugly head in the form of a Polish drug
cartel. Struggling to get the drug lords on New Colorado under control, Czerinski
lands in more trouble with more bad press. The Butcher of New Colorado is as unaware
and ineffectual as ever in handling the situation. Can he keep it together long
enough to make another successful wager on football, this time a game between guards
and prisoners at the local jail?
Familiar faces make appearances
along with new ones – including a talking groundhog. Has Czerinski’s insanity
rendered him the only one who can understand what Mr. Groundhog has to say? Even
as the war on drugs draws to a close and Czerinski contemplates retirement from
the glorious life of a legionnaire, the laughs continue! He’s in for the
duration.

I love the cover art. If you look closely, you can see a cow and trailer home swirling around the tornado. The rodent in the foreground is a cameo for my daughter's pet prairie dog. I wrote other cameos into AGFL-22 for friends. I hope that goes well, humor can be a difficult thing.
