Just the Beginning?

Justin Spears has a proverbial axe to grind against Alibi Jones. Spears also killed Laurel Eden when she brought him an empty Star Seed. Brutal dude. He's brought Alibi's deranged but telepathically powerful half-brother Hap on board The Hornet's Nest to subdue the place without a (physical) fight... and so Alibi has enhanced himself with the Star Seed Substance to try to stop him! Writer, host and narrator Mike Luoma runs down the story-so-far to catch-up listeners new and old before diving into Chapter Eighty-One of The Star Seeds of Earth!

Free Your Mind, Alibi Jones?

The Star Seed Substance changes – enhances – human DNA, changing people into something more. Or at least different. Alibi Jones is going through those changes right now, having just ingested some of the Substance. He figured he needed to, in order to telepathically battle his insane half-brother Hap, already "enhanced". Their face-off begins in this new chapter of The Star Seeds of Earth! Glow-in-the-Dark Radio has been written and read by host Mike Luoma since 2006, with free, original, independent audio science fiction adventure every episode!

Big Announcement - VATICAN ASSASSIN 15th Anniversary Editions!

Pioneering Podcaster and Independent Science Fiction Author Mike Luoma Announces The 15^th Anniversary Celebration of His First Novel

VATICAN ASSASSIN – With Two New Editions!

 

New 15^th Anniversary Illustrated Print & Special Audiobook Editions Coming In November.

 

BURLINGTON, Vermont – September 12, 2020 - Vatican Assassin turns 15 this November!

Author and narrator Mike Luoma turns to some of his creative friends to help him celebrate, and announces two very special print and audiobook 15^th Anniversary Editions to be released in the anniversary month!

In Print: Vatican Assassin – Illustrated 15^th Anniversary Edition – Artist Federico Guillen (Good Samaritan: Unto Dust, Alibi Jones covers) provides new cover art and ten interior illustrations for this special new edition of the novel. Watch for the cover reveal coming in October!

For Audiobook: Vatican Assassin – 15^th Anniversary Edition Audiobook – Mike enlists his multi-talented friends from the worlds of voice acting, podcasting, writing and narration for a special new edition of the audiobook.

The new edition features in-character voice cameos! Luminaries Paul E. Cooley, Veronica Giguere, Keith Hughes, John Mireau, Starla Hutchton, Dave Robison and Scott Sigler bring their talents into the mix, voicing folks lead character BC – Bernard Campion – runs into in this, his first adventure.

With new cover art, new illustrations for print, and a more colorful audio edition, Luoma welcomes readers back into the world of BC, the Vatican Assassin. He says he isn't revising the text – much. "This is my first baby, you know?" Luoma said. "I don't want to remake the book, I want to celebrate it! That said, there are some tweaks, a few, here and there. Just a touch more polish, and a couple small fixes for continuity's sake, with later books."

More details are at http://glowinthedarkradio.com.

Look for Vatican Assassin's new editions this November from Mike Luoma and Glow-in-the-Dark Radio!

Within Alibi, Without Alibi...

As the technologically advanced race who called themselves The People (a generic term) and are now known as The Ancient Enemy died at the hand of those they'd oppressed, they sent out Star Seeds, loaded with their tech, knowledge and DNA, and the means to alter other lifeforms to become like their own – in hopes of carrying on their race. Alibi Jones is about to deliberately use the contents of the Star Seed they found to alter himself, hoping to in effect "power up" enough to face his insane half-brother, Hap, who has altered himself already. All in the new chapter of The Star Seeds of Earth on this week's Glow-in-the-Dark Radio, written and read by host Mike Luoma. Free, original, independent audio science fiction adventure every episode.
