AMERICA'S GALACTIC FOREIGN LEGION
BOOK 3: SILENT INVASION
Walter Knight
Humorous Military Science Fiction

The saga of compulsive gambler turned legionnaire continues as Joey Czerinski deals with the clever machinations of the Arthropodan Empire trying to take control of planet New Colorado. It's not just a case of a spider that sits down beside her - Little Miss Muffet and the Galactic Foregin Legion have to deal with spiders, spiders everywhere, and the wolves are literally at the door. But with the usual politically-incorrect aplomb, Czerinski and his Legion pals struggle through more serendipitous surprises in this third installment of the miles-of-smiles military space opera.


Saturday, Feb. 25 - Wednesday, Feb. 29...

AMERICA'S GALACTIC FOREIGN LEGION
BOOK 4: DEMILITARIZED ZONE
Walter Knight
Humorous Military Science Fiction

The New Gobi Desert on planet New Colorado is hot-hot-hot, and when Major Joey Czerinski and his platoon are ordered there to check on Arthropodan spider military activity, Czerinski finds it hard to believe the spiders are just building a swimming pool. The spider commander is a royal pain in the rear, and Czerinski's cowboy diplomacy doesn't help the situation. Tit-for-tat one-upmanship escalates the conflict, making the DMZ explosive. A juvie militia leader rises from the dust to complicate things, and with Walmart, McDonald's, and chupacabra thrown into the mix, the absurdity never stops. Czerinski handles it all with his usual politically-incorrect aplomb in this fourth installment of the giggles-and-belly-laughs military space opera.


Thursday, March 1 - Monday, March 5...

AMERICA'S GALACTIC FOREIGN LEGION
BOOK 5: INSURGENCY
Walter Knight
Humorous Military Science Fiction

If dreams really do come true, then habitual-gambling legionnaire Joey R. Czerinski is stuck in a friggin' nightmare as his tour of duty in planet New Colorado's New Gobi Desert drags on. The alien Arthropodan Empire continues secretly supporting spider terrorists on New Colorado, and to fight back, the Legion also supplies the human rebel faction with armaments. But things get out of hand as independence from all rulers - Galactic Federation or Arthropodan Empire - starts looking better and better to a combined insurgency made up of both spider and human rebels. Czerinski finds himself teaming with unusal allies to try and keep things under control as the politically-incorrect humor explodes in this fifth installment of the military space opera.


Tuesday, March 6 - Saturday, March 10...

AMERICA'S GALACTIC FOREIGN LEGION
BOOK 6: CULTURE WAR
Walter Knight
Humorous Military Science Fiction

The conflict escalates as the Arthropodan Emperor declares war on American culture and orders all American merchandise and cultural influences banned north of the DMZ. Things get out of hand, as usual, when Colonel Joey R. Czerinski and his miscreant band of legionnaires fumble the ball. Czerinski overracts and alienates those closest to him, and through it all, the laughs keep coming.


Sunday, March 11 - Thursday, March 15...

AMERICA'S GALACTIC FOREIGN LEGION
BOOK 7: ENEMIES
Walter Knight
Humorous Military Science Fiction

Even the paranoid have enemies - as Colonel Joey R. Czerinski well knows, being paranoid and having many enemies. Some of those enemies he actually calls friends. Snipers on rooftops and scorpions from space - the source doesn't matter, they're still enemies that have to be dealt with. And Czerinski deals with it all in his usual way - by cheating and lying and alienating everyone around him - as the laughs continue.


Friday, March 16 - Tuesday, March 20...

AMERICA'S GALACTIC FOREIGN LEGION
BOOK 8: ALLIES
Walter Knight
Humorous Military Science Fiction

A treaty makes the humans and spiders allies, but before anyone can enjoy peace, the scorpions reappear with a vengeance. Col. Czerinski and his miscreant band of legionnaires help the spiders battle the scorpions. The Legion’s serendipitous screw-up convinces the scorpions to surrender. A new alien species makes an appearance, and a feared nemesis returns, putting everyone on alert as the laughs continue.


Wednesday, March 21 - Sunday, March 25...

AMERICA'S GALACTIC FOREIGN LEGION
BOOK 9: SCORPIONS
Walter Knight
Humorous Military Science Fiction

The Scorpion Queen takes a special diplomatic tour of planet New Colorado, with a secret recipe - er, plan - in mind for the surviving Mantidae. All she has to do is find them. Amid a buffalo drive, Czerinski falls victim to a mysterious illness with a nasty green rash that threatens his life. The Mantid matriarch makes a final bid for vengeance against the scorpions for decimating her race. And, in a strange turn of events, Czerinski gets a new CO as the laughs and absurdity continue in this ninth installment of the seriously screwy science fiction space saga.


Monday, March 26 - Friday, March 30...

AMERICA'S GALACTIC FOREIGN LEGION
BOOK 10: PEACEKEEPERS
Walter Knight
Humorous Military Science Fiction

With Colonel Manny Lopez now in charge, Captain Joey R. Czerinski and his ragtag band of legionnaires are sporting blue peacekeeper armbands and helmets to head off hostilities between the scorpions and the spiders on planet New Colorado. But with nukes and an old foe making a return appearance, America's Galactic Foreign Legion has a full plate - as long as Taco Bell and Pizza Hut keep their doors open, and Czerinski handles it all with his usual paranoid aplomb. The absurdity continues in the tenth installment of the seriously screwy science fiction space saga.


Saturday, March 31 - Wednesday, April 4...

AMERICA'S GALACTIC FOREIGN LEGION
BOOK 11: CEMETERY CITY
Walter Knight
Humorous Military Science Fiction

Colonel Lopez returns to planet New Colorado with an agenda - mining rare metals used in communications and weapons technology on which the USGF is so dependent. The only problem is, the ore vein is located across the border in Arthropodan territory. But Lopez has a plan to get around that little technicality, and it involves Major Joey R. Czerinski's chain of cemeteries. The spider commander takes offense at the Legion's claim-jumping, and Lopez gets caught in the middle of the fracas as the absurdity continues in the eleventh installment of the seriously screwy science fiction space saga. 


Thursday, April 5 - Monday, April 9...

AMERICA'S GALACTIC FOREIGN LEGION
BOOK 12: THE ARK
Walter Knight
Humorous Military Science Fiction

General Lopez returns once again to planet New Colorado with another top-secret mission for Colonel Joey R. Czerinki and his trusty (or not so trusty) legionnaires. A huge spaceship has been detected deep underground, right under the desert oasis of croc-infested Caldera Lake. Czerinski's task is to reach the ship and strip its technology before the Arthropodan Empire finds out what's going on. But as soon as the Legion arrives and starts digging around, the spiders come right behind to start their own tunneling. It's a race against absurdity and a battle of witlessness as the two teams squabble - while progress (Walmart, a couple casinos, Starbucks, and Taco Bell) pop up around them. Tourists, hearing of an ancient ark discovered deep beneath the sand, flock to Caldera Lake by the busloads, hoping to see this new wonder in the twelfth installment of the seriously silly science fiction space saga. Bonus story VAMPIRE IN THE OUTFIELD included at the end - first time in print!


Tuesday, April 10 - Saturday, April 14...

AMERICA'S GALACTIC FOREIGN LEGION
BOOK 13: SALESMAN FROM MARS
Walter Knight
Humorous Military Science Fiction

The zany humor continues with a new star in this thirteenth installment of the screwy military space saga. Born salesman Donald Crisp is down on his luck and short of money. When Crisp accepts a loan from the USGF recruitment ATM, he ends up - of course - enlisted in the United States Galactic Federation Foreign Legion. Oranges for scorpions, semi-sentient penguins, biting Blue Lizards, ghosts from the past, and cheating at cards make life interesting as Crisp chills at the South Pole, then makes a splash in Caldera Lake - all the while, watching out for the Grim Reaper!


Sunday, April 15 - Thursday, April 19...

AMERICA'S GALACTIC FOREIGN LEGION
BOOK 14: EMBASSY WAR
Walter Knight
Humorous Military Science Fiction

The Butcher of New Colorado returns to the spotlight, assigned to protect the lavish new USGF Embassy while acting as a spy for General Lopez and the CIA on the spiders' home world of Arthropoda. Amid riots and sports betting on exhibition basketball games, Czerinski finds trouble has followed him across the galaxy. An old foe makes a surprise visit and wrecks his office. A war ensues over turkey dinner, leaving the scorpion embassy in shambles. Following that debacle, Czerinski and crew get a plum assignment back on New Colorado, guarding a volcano in desert-isle Quenaudenville as he tries to figure out what no-good mischief the spiders are up to now. And just when things couldn't be worse, his terrorist ex-girlfriend shows up with their delinquent son, Joey Jr. This time the loony legionnaires go off the reservation with a game-changing detour!
