PRESS RELEASE


The Mac Sisco Trilogy is a cabalistic thriller series following the exploits of NSA agent Mac Sisco. Book one, Apogee, is now available everywhere books are sold. Book two, The Typhon Affair, will be released ON 31 March 2023. Lou is currently writing The Maslow Conspiracy, book three.


NSA Director Admiral James Clausen wakes to an urgent call. His worst nightmare has become reality, that the Typhon cabal is still operational. Intelligence agent Mac Sisco and Team Apogee are again called upon to save an unwitting world from global domination, and the final countdown has already begun. With a cryptic text from a questionable source as their only lead, Sisco and Apogee embark on a desperate, global mission to bring down an evil empire intent on nothing less than subjugation of the entire planet.


What Reviewers Are Saying about

THE TYPHON AFFAIR


 "Riveting, particularly terrifying because of its current-day context. A fast-paced, high-octane thriller that fans of this genre will adore."

— The US Review of Books


"Earle's ability to dovetail political cat-and-mouse games with social inspection lends a realistic tone and attraction to The Typhon Affair that places this thriller on par with the best of established genre authors.

— Midwest Book Review


"Tense, smart, fast-moving action thriller…. Woven skillfully into the twisty plot are questions about courage, ethics, integrity, loyalty, duty, and patriotism, adding relevance and substance to the narrative. A striking, fast-paced tale loaded with interesting characters, crisp dialogue, bullets, and bloodshed."

— The Prairies Book Review

Things of Little Consequence: An Esthetic Inquiry

To Be Released in 2023

Poetry


by John Casey


Things of Little Consequence is a purposeful and unapologetic exploration of circumstance, sentiment, and thought that is concurrently nuanced, mercurial, and obtrusive. Within, Casey poetically suggests that the human condition is less complex than it is complicated. With introspection, we can come to see that life is not as enigmatic or indecipherable as we prefer to believe.
