<blockquote>
Daniel Ash wakes after midnight to the cry of his daughter. Just a bad dream, he thinks. She’s had them before. Yet he can’t help but worry when she cries out again as he pads down the hallway. Stepping through her doorway, he expects to find her sitting up in bed, frightened by a nightmare.<br />
<br />
But the nightmare is his. It’s real. And it's just beginning...<br />
<br />
Something is burning Ash's daughter alive. Something horrible that is spreading beyond the walls of their home, and taking no prisoners. <br />
<br />
Thirty seconds later, Ash will discover his daughter isn’t the only one in his family infected, and as his world spins, coming apart at the seams, a team of armed men in biohazard suits bursts into his house.<br />
<br />
But these aren’t the good guys.<br />
<br />
They haven’t come to save Ash’s family. They’ve come to separate them, to finish what they started.<br />
<br />
The problem is Ash refuses to disappear. He wants only one thing: to find those responsible.<br />
<br />
Because humanity is on the brink of execution.<br />
<br />
And man is pulling the trigger.</blockquote>

I've just released the third book in my Project Eden series!<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
A simple push of a button and the world will never be the same.<br />
<br />
Martina Gable returns home from college to spend Christmas break with her family, but the relaxing vacation she expects is not even close to what she'll get. <br />
<br />
Sanjay, a young man in Mumbai who knows more than he should about Project Eden’s plan, will do whatever he can to keep Kusum, the girl he loves, alive and safe.<br />
<br />
A boy named Brandon Ash runs for his life in the hills of Montana, wanting only to see his family again.<br />
<br />
But first there is Daniel, the boy’s father, who watches Olivia Silva’s finger hover over the enter key that will decide the fate of humanity. <br />
<br />
Do you think you’re safe?</blockquote>

<blockquote>
It was supposed to be a fun weekend, a celebration of a marriage and growing family. Alan Lindley couldn't have been happier...until his wife Sara disappeared.<br />
<br />
Asked by a mutual friend to help look for her, Logan Harper is sure he'd discover a wife who simply wants out of the marriage.<br />
<br />
What he finds instead is a woman who didn't exist, a diabolical plan, and people who would do anything to keep it a secret, including taking the life of the person most important to him.<br />

THE PULL OF GRAVITY is a bit of a departure for me as it is not a true thriller. There is definitely a mystery involved, but I think I'd classify it more as a straight lit novel...ish. It deals with a subject that not a lot of people know about, but one I think you'd be surprised to get an insight into. If you don't believe me, ask my parents. GRAVITY is probably their favorite novel of mine. <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/The-Pull-of-Gravity-ebook/dp/B005H1O4DG">GET IT IN THE KINDLE STORE HERE</a></span><br /><br />And here's the description:<br /><br /><blockquote><span style="font-style:italic;">From Brett Battles comes a different kind of novel, one Edgar Award nominated author Tim Hallinan calls, "a mesmerizing thriller of the heart." It's a story of love, tragedy, and those searching for redemption.</span><br /><br />Jay Bradley thought he could leave the Philippines behind. But though he's started a new life, with a woman he loves, he's still tormented by questions from his past.<br /><br />He returns to Angeles City where he once worked as the papasan watching over his bargirls. On the surface he's there to sell his stake in a bar on the notorious Fields Avenue. In reality he's come back to find Isabel--one of his old dancers, and the only person who can answer his questions, and quiet his demons. <br /><br />Because death is seldom an ending, and always haunts those left behind.</blockquote><br /><br />Check it out, not only is it free but I think you'll be happily surprised. <span style="font-weight:bold;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/The-Pull-of-Gravity-ebook/dp/B005H1O4DG">Download it here.</a></span>Brett Battleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03786471378650235415noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20533065.post-12253270084920103802012-03-13T08:00:00.001-07:002012-03-13T08:00:01.544-07:00HERE COMES MR.

<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">THE PULL OF GRAVITY</span> has arrived.
<br />
<br />
<br /><blockquote>From Brett Battles comes a different kind of novel, one Edgar Award nominated author Tim Hallinan calls, “a mesmerizing thriller of the heart.” It’s a story of love, tragedy, and those searching for redemption.
<br />
<br />Jay Bradley thought he could leave the Philippines behind. But though he’s started a new life, with a woman he loves, he’s still tormented by questions from his past.
<br />
<br />He returns to Angeles City where he once worked as the papasan watching over his bargirls. On the surface he’s there to sell his stake in a bar on the notorious Fields Avenue. In reality he’s come back to find Isabel—one of his old dancers, and the only person who can answer his questions, and quiet his demons.
<br />
<br />Because death always haunts those left behind.</blockquote>

So I'm looking for 30+ people who would like to receive a free copy of the book in exchange for a review posted on Amazon and wherever else you can (such as barnesandnoble.com, goodreads.com, DorthyL, etc.) The book will be sent to you around the same time it will go on sale, so as soon as you are able to finish reading it, you'll be able to post your reviews.<br /><br />Now before you rush to say yes, note that THE PULL OF GRAVITY isn't like my other books...meaning, it's not a thriller. While there is a mystery involved, it is really more of a (for lack of a better term) lit novel. Writers are often intrigued by the fringes of society, and I'm no different. THE PULL OF GRAVITY is about a former Navy man named Jay who fell into an unplanned life that became very difficult to leave. It's a story of love and hate and tragedy and redemption set in the almost surreal world of the go-go bars in the Philippines. If at first the idea of this puts you off, I challenge you to push yourself and give it a try. I'm pretty sure THE PULL OF GRAVITY will suck you in.<br /><br />So...who's in?Brett Battleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03786471378650235415noreply@blogger.com19tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20533065.post-2350962571231144582011-07-22T18:06:00.000-07:002011-07-22T18:13:44.118-07:00BIG AUDIO ANNOUNCEMENT<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwzCur-kGQK4Ps47lmrdKkh-0MnUzHMft1AqDXQNXoqsKXM61BCI4gMhdBlENyqXLg5TXRFCgpF7RgMinB708sDjUG8M2xvbNowxwr-EfZKw84Fvi8PDHgsnsAW_kJm-uqD0GC/s1600/Sick_Final_200w.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 137px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwzCur-kGQK4Ps47lmrdKkh-0MnUzHMft1AqDXQNXoqsKXM61BCI4gMhdBlENyqXLg5TXRFCgpF7RgMinB708sDjUG8M2xvbNowxwr-EfZKw84Fvi8PDHgsnsAW_kJm-uqD0GC/s200/Sick_Final_200w.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5632349240914105186" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e){}"href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/dZJOHen9Trs/TiofoPIAFoI/AAAAAAAAAnU/KIGd71FrPfo/s1600/LGG_Fin_cover_2_5x3_100dpi.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 137px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwIEphYzZ_SZBhXF3joJZ8TQp3HvyhbqtqClh_S08Uqg0tZer4l8nZvLD531Vzo1S40PgviSPa3Rvz1KL4YpmTjrAJaBcxTXZ9paI3GsQirf0xaONG-SvzAqRkeywuW4vspQtC/s200/LGG_Fin_cover_2_5x3_100dpi.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5632349060095547010" /></a><br /><br />I've been sitting on this for about a month, but now that the contract is done, I'm extremely happy to announce that I've signed a deal with Audible.com to produce audiobooks for LITTLE GIRL GONE, SICK and the follows ups to both novels!

But I want to tell you, you shouldn't. PARADISE PROPHECY is a tremendous thriller. Here's a bit from the book's description:<br /><br /><blockquote>A spectacular thriller inspired by John Milton's Paradise Lost in which the final chapter of the War in Heaven is about to play out on Earth, with the fate of humanity hanging in the balance. <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">The Myth </span><br /><br />When God cast the archangel Satan into Hell, ending the War in Heaven, peace prevailed on Earth. Until the fallen angels took revenge in the Garden of Eden. Ever since, mankind has been in a struggle between good and evil, paradise and apocalypse: the fall of Rome, The Crusades, World Wars, nuclear proliferation, the Middle East Crisis... The War in Heaven never really ended-it just changed venues. For millennia, God's angels have been fighting Satan's demons on Earth, all in hopes of bringing about Satan's greatest ambition, the Apocalypse. <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">The Reality </span><br /><br />Satan has never been closer to his goal than right now. <br /><br />Agent Bernadette Callahan is a talented investigator at a shadowy government organization known only as Section, on the trail of a serial killer with nearly supernatural abilities. Sebastian "Batty" LaLaurie is a religious historian who knows far too much about the other side- and that hard-earned knowledge is exactly what Callahan needs. This unlikely duo pair up for a race across the globe, decoding clues left in ancient texts from the Bible to Paradise Lost and beyond. In the process they stumble upon a vast conspiracy-one beyond the scope of mankind's darkest imagination.</blockquote><br /><br />I read an advance copy and it's not a stretch to tell you I ripped through the pages. This is an electrifying story that runs at a breathless pace. Rob is great at creating characters that aren't cliche or cardboard. PARADISE PROPHECY isn't just a good summer read, it's a good ANYTIME read! <br /><br />I highly recommend it.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.robertgregorybrowne.com/website/?page_id=811">Find out more at Rob's website.</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Paradise-Prophecy-Robert-Browne/dp/0525952233"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Find THE PARADISE PROPHECY at Amazon.com</span></a><br /><a href="http://www.amazon.com/The-Paradise-Prophecy-ebook/dp/B0052RDIDC"><span style="font-weight:bold;">FInd THE PARADISE PROPHECY in the Kindle Store</span></a><br /><a href="http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Paradise-Prophecy/Robert-Browne/e/9780525952237"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Find THE PARADISE PROPHECY at Barnesandnoble.com</span></a><br /><a href="http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-paradise-prophecy-robert-browne/1027752307"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Find THE PARADISE PROPHECY in the Nook Store</span></a>Brett Battleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03786471378650235415noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20533065.post-41855226710861020992011-07-12T07:57:00.000-07:002011-07-12T08:03:29.587-07:00BECOMING QUINN is out!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK_8LF5eiSOKLJnDqvtfvCDrvxL1-v0wlIEpQLDC9zcxverStgn7Zq-biC31GSSd-Cj7GuBuB1efOLUMo29M__4LrW-2xQm_sMXAmZ-7H5rxQ2fOXBQ_uACr0FQGvCT5HSyO_z/s1600/BQ_FINAL_300w.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 222px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK_8LF5eiSOKLJnDqvtfvCDrvxL1-v0wlIEpQLDC9zcxverStgn7Zq-biC31GSSd-Cj7GuBuB1efOLUMo29M__4LrW-2xQm_sMXAmZ-7H5rxQ2fOXBQ_uACr0FQGvCT5HSyO_z/s320/BQ_FINAL_300w.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5628481396518752002" /></a><br />The new Jonathan Quinn thriller, <span style="font-weight:bold;">BECOMING QUINN</span> (a 57,000 word novella) is now available at ebook retailers.<br /><br />Most careers begin with an interview and a handshake.

This is Quinn’s.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">BECOMING QUINN</span> includes the bonus first chapter to <span style="font-weight:bold;">WATCH ME DIE</span> by Lee Goldberg.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Becoming-Quinn-Jonathan-Thriller-ebook/dp/B005C5Z8KU"><span style="font-weight:bold;">BECOMING QUINN</span> on Kindle</a><br /><a href="http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/becoming-quinn-a-jonathan-quinn-novella-brett-battles/1104240849"><span style="font-weight:bold;">BECOMING QUINN</span> on Nook</a><br /><a href="http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/72840"><span style="font-weight:bold;">BECOMING QUINN</span> at Smashwords.com</a>Brett Battleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03786471378650235415noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20533065.post-50096928074191057282011-07-09T07:03:00.000-07:002011-07-09T07:24:55.685-07:00COUNTY LINE<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1935562525"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsjmMT5yXgkeGLm5xV2cfpgKocxuRa4U_vdlvqHabT3XfZiluKPZtKhk64PeHxlAv0NpY5p2OxK_RUxOJvAUhAVwWIaVQtOz6lQHxGvzOHQeWE8l1PQOFVSxFif0o5cua1OFAH/s1600/COUNTYLINE.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 128px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsjmMT5yXgkeGLm5xV2cfpgKocxuRa4U_vdlvqHabT3XfZiluKPZtKhk64PeHxlAv0NpY5p2OxK_RUxOJvAUhAVwWIaVQtOz6lQHxGvzOHQeWE8l1PQOFVSxFif0o5cua1OFAH/s200/COUNTYLINE.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627353555898116786" /></a></a><br />Have you read anything by BIll Cameron? If not, you should. Because if you like crime fiction, Bill Cameron is, in my opinion, one of the best in the genre. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Lost-Dog-Bill-Cameron/dp/0738709662">LOST DOG</a>, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Chasing-Smoke-Bill-Cameron/dp/1606480197">CHASING SMOKE</a>, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Day-One-Bill-Cameron/dp/1935562088">DAY ONE</a>, and his latest release <a href="http://www.amazon.com/County-Line-Bill-Cameron/dp/1935562525">COUNTY LINE</a>. There are no cardboard characters here. Only a great story that will keeping you engaged through the end. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/County-Line-Bill-Cameron/dp/1935562525">COUNTY LINE</a> is an example of a talented writer at the top of his game, and I couldn't recommend it more. <br /><br />Bill has also just released a collection of 3 short stories called <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Puppy-Love-Noir-ebook/dp/B0058OEBPI">PUPPY LOVE</a>, about the "dark side of young love." The collection is available as an ebook for only .99.

It's a riveting look into the aftermath of disaster, in this case when The Big One finally hits L.A. We see the tragedy through the eyes of a man whose only goal has become getting home to his wife twenty plus miles away. Did I say riveting? Well, I meant it. A GREAT read.

TROUBLE</span>:<br /><br /><blockquote>ARE YOU LOSING THINGS?<br />ARE PEOPLE YOU KNOW ACTING STRANGE?<br />IS SOMEONE CLOSE TO YOU MISSING???<br />DO YOU FEEL LIKE THINGS ARE BEYOND YOUR CONTROL?<br />ARE YOU IN…<span style="font-style:italic;">TROUBLE</span>?<br />When Eric Morrison sees the advertisement, he doesn’t know which is more surprising—the ad’s sudden appearance or the fact that his answer to every question is YES! <br />Not only can’t he find things, but the bullies at school are suddenly picking on him for no reason, and, worse yet, his mother has disappeared but he seems to be the only one who’s noticed. Even his best friend Maggie thinks he’s only run into a little bad luck.<br />But if Eric thinks his life is upside down now, it’s nothing compared to what’s about to happen when Mr. Trouble and the Trouble family arrive to assist him in solving his problems. <br />One thing’s for sure—Eric will never see the world in the same way again.</blockquote><br /><br />It's a wild ride of an adventure, that fun and exciting at the same time! A 14 year old reader says, "It's the kind of book that makes you stay up until 2:00 AM reading because you just can't stop."<br />I know I'm biased, but I think it's the kind of book which both adults and kids can enjoy.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Comes-Trouble-Family-Chronicles-ebook/dp/B0050JL84I"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Find HERE COMES MR.
