Editorial Reviews

Lyn Perry
Once an Army Ranger then a member of the Tulon Central Security Force, Jack Brand is now an independent contractor not averse to the occasional bounty hunt or good deed. He's also the title character in "Jack Brand," a collection of stories by John M. Whalen.

I first encountered the Jack Brand stories within the electronic pages of Ray Gun Revival, an online science fiction magazine devoted to space opera. However, there's as much or more Old West adventure as there is science fiction
Midwest Book Review
If there is one thing that never changes, it's the lawlessness of the frontier. "Jack Brand" is a futuristic take on the old western story as titular hero Jack Brand travels across the planet of Tulon to find his sister who was kidnapped seven years ago in an ambush. Along the way, his trip won't be easy as he encounters more than his fair share of unusual individuals out to end him, and perhaps the trickiest thing of all, love. "Jack Brand" is an exciting adventure not to be missed.
