I had the great pleasure of beta reading this book. It's funny and clever and oddly wholesome for a book that blows up half a town. You've got two more days to back this kickstarter, and trust me, you want to.

Two days left on the #laserblasted Kickstarter. Another $38 and all backers will get a bonus Prohibition Orcs epub.

Please help me purge this blight from my soul.
