Loved it! Can't wait for more...

More to come??
 

It was great, right up to the end. Don't leave us hanging there. I certainly hope the follow on is well underway.

Not to worry - the sequel, Hamfist Down!, is almost finished. And there's another sequel after that, Hamfist Over Hanoi.

I would really appreciate any reviews on Amazon, plus Facebook and twitter mentions!

Thanks!

Hi. I bought the book and really enjoyed it. Read chapter 1 of book 2. Looking forward to its completion.

Thanks, Tony! I'm just waiting on the cover from my artist. Sequel any day now!

O-2 Sequel
 

I just got the cover this morning, and I think my artist did a great job!

The sequel, Hamfist Down!, is available now as a Kindle download at http://www.amazon.com/Hamfist-Down-S...ywords=hamfist

Thanks!

George

Thank You
 

Got it, or at least it should be loading.
Thank you, George.

Hi George,
I enjoyed Hamfist down and am looking forward to book 3. These are the first books I've ever read on an e-reader. I have a nook color, converted to an android tablet with the kindle software installed and it worked well. The software also worked well on my phone.

Thanks!
 

Thanks, Tony! I'm working on book 3 as we speak.

Been There books
 

I have enjoyed your books. There are little details that indicate that in fact you have more than some familiarity with the aircraft.
I enjoy these kinds of books, because they tell the story, cover the period of time, and yet don't have the dryness that seems to infect the non-fiction books about warfare, particularly air combat.
When ever I read one, I am reminded of an author I read a long time ago. The book was called "The Few", and not surprisingly was about the Battle of Britain. I remember turning the book over, and the back of the jacket contained a surprise. A picture of the author, and a little information. Makes you wonder.

Thank you for your comments, and for the review you posted on Amazon! It's really been a lot of fun writing these books. I've been living in 1969 for the past several months, and now I'm living in 1972 as I work on Hamfist Over Hanoi.

After my first O-2 tour in Vietnam, I had two additional tours of duty as an O-2 instructor. I ended up with a little over 2500 hours of O-2 time.

Great airplane!

I have read all the books. Did you end up marrying a girl of Japanese descent?

Married
 

There is some literary license taken in the novel, but to answer your question: yes, my Japanese wife and I have been married for 45 years.

George

Working on another sequel right now

P.S. - I'm not really bald, it's a trick camera!

I am well into the second book and they are both great reads. Thank you for your service, firstly, and for your great novels, secondly. I enjoy them very much and will definitely get the third installment.

Thanks for your comments. If you have time, I would really appreciate it if you would post a review on Amazon when you finish reading the books.

Thanks!
