Eastgate: A Robert Hoon Thriller (Robert Hoon Thrillers Book 4)

Product Information

Didn't think that we were going to be having a zombie in this book but by the cover art, I wondered. I tried to push the idea from my mind, but Hoon—because this is what he does—soon forced his way back in.

If you’ve ever thought that Die Hard would’ve been improved by making Bruce Willis’s character a psychotic, foul-mouthed Scotsman in his mid fifties, then this is the book for you! I want to warn readers that this story is violent, bloody, brutal and full of language, the language just as strong as the others, and if not more violent, by far more gory.After being repeatedly beaten, shot at, blown-up, and tortured, Hoon is looking forward to spending a quiet Christmas drinking heavily in front of the TV, while pointedly ignoring the older sister who has invaded his home. It is an excellent read for fans of Reacher and Bourne, or anyone who loves great action flicks or books. Conversely, I haven’t read the Jack Logan books (that these are a spin-off from) and don’t think that mattered - although of course now I fully intend to, as Kirk’s humour is right up my street. Well I worked with publishers for about ten years writing kids’ books, but ultimately it was by accident that I got into self-publishing.

Then we went away on holiday, and Space Team started outselling all my kids’ books, but I’d done no marketing for it.Lesson learned … “reviews are good, but take time before falling for something based on the reviews”. I am looking forward to reading more of the Logan and hopefully Hoon novels and books from Kirk’s other pen names. I put on some quizzes, I’d recorded videos with a wee Santa hat, and loads of them got together on the Facebook group to chat and spend Christmas together. Like most kids’ authors, most of my income came from doing school events, and I got asked to go to a school in Elgin and talk about how kids can publish their own books. And having ripped through both of their series and slowing working through all of Mayhew’s others works I decided to give this one a try.
