Marc Hartzman I currently working on my 4th book with Quirk about secret government projects. It's called:

"You’re Not Supposed to Know About This: One Man’s Deep Dive into the Government’s Secret Projects to Control Minds, Train Animal Spies, and Secure American Dominance at All Costs"

It's due out in late 2025.
Marc Hartzman I'm a collector by nature. Always have been. My books are generally collections of stories I find fascinating—ones I want to share. That inspires me and motivates me to write. For example, The Big Book of Mars is a collection of amazing stories about the history of the Red Planet, which started with my discovery of a man in the 1920s who claimed he was in telepathic communication with a. Martian woman named Oomaruru. This was a story I wanted to share, as were many others I soon discovered happening around the same time.
Marc Hartzman I got the idea after reading a book about the history of Phrenology and the story of Joseph Haydn's head. I began researching other posthumous tales of body parts and came across the story of Oliver Cromwell's head. I decided to write a memoir for the head, covering all 300 years of its journeys through England.
