David Robbins ©2015         In the mood for a fun read?Treat yourself to KAIJU SPAWN, a new book from the combined pens---or keyboards---of the hugely talented Eric S. Brown, and yours truly.If you’re unfamiliar with the term ‘Kaiju’, it’s all about monsters. Specifically, it refers to movies, books and comics that have to do with ‘strange beasts’. Or if you want to get technical, we can call it ‘daikaiju’, which is Japanese for really ‘big strange beasts’.Godzilla is undoubtedly the most famous example. Mothra and Rodan and a host of others are in the same genre. It might surprise you to learn that so is THE BEAST FROM 20,000 PHANTOMS, THE DEADLY MANTIS, THE GIANT BEHEMOTH and other monster flicks from the ‘50’s and beyond. Recent examples include PACIFIC RIM and CLOVERFIELD.And lest I forget to mention it, the monster need not be a giant reptile or a gargantuan bug. Yep, you guessed it: King Kong is included in the same category. [I'm a Kaiju? How did that happen? I'm not even Japanese. Oh. Wait. That (expletive deleted) Godzilla. It must be from that time I stopped in Tokyo for some sushi and he got all fire-breath about it. No wonder nobody likes to hang out with that guy.]
In keeping with this fine tradition, Eric and I give you KAIJU SPAWN. Picture, if you will,  a giant creature that  has heaved up out of the sea and is leaving a swath of destruction and chaos in its wake. Then put yourself in the shoes of an terrified father who realizes his young daughter is directly in the monster’s path.That’s the kernel at the heart of our story. There’s a lot more, of course. Chills and thrills galore. Find out for yourself. Get your copy of KAIJU SPAWN today. P.S. And while I’m at it, I’d like to give Eric a plug. He’s the author of the Bigfoot Warseries, The Kaiju Apocalypse series (with Jason Cordova), and the Crypto-Squadseries with Jason Brannon. Some of his stand alone works include Megalodon, Night of the Kaiju, Dawn of the Kaiju, World War of the Dead, Sasquatch Lake, and War of the Worlds Plus Blood Guts and Zombies. His short fiction has been published hundreds of times, including the Onward Drake anthology from Baen Books, the Grantville Gazette, and Walmart World Magazine. Two of his books have been made into feature films- Bigfoot War (2014) from Origin Releasing and Werewolf Massacre at Hell’s Gate (2015) from Ingy Films. He loves to write tales of giant monsters, blazing guns, hungry corpses, and things that lurk in the woods.This is Eric: And to be fair, this is the other author:  [Now if you'll excuse me, I need to duck and run for the hills.]
