Synopsis

Neanderthal Sunset captures the final days of a brave and noble species as it nears extinction. The fossil record is unclear. Did Neanderthal speak? Did he laugh, have music, feel love? Did he interact with Homo sapiens or get killed by him in mortal combat or get pushed to extinction on less marginal lands? This book answers some of those questions in a carefully researched fictional setting. Meet Strong Arms, leader of the clan, a hunter with strong muscular hands and tawny, reddish-brown hair. Predator species have spite hardwired into their behavior. Killing the competition before it grows up is always a good genetic strategy for any meat-eater. Now, take one that's smart, adaptive, and a consummate tool-user, and you have the makings for a conflict of monumental proportions. It's man versus Neanderthal in the mountains of Iberia. Only one will survive. You may be surprised by which.

A review of The Railguns of Luna from the prestigious SCIENCE FICTION CHRONICLE (June 2001):

Steven Burgauer writes old style science fiction in which heroes and villains are easily identified, the action is fast and furious, and the plot twists and turns uncontrollably. His newest is the story of a crack team of military specialists who discover that the brilliant but warped Cassandra Mubarak is planning to use advanced scientific devices to seize control of the world. To stop her, they must infiltrate her heavily guarded headquarters and rescue the fair maiden in distress. This is action adventure written straightforwardly and not meant to be heavily literary or provide pithy commentary on the state of humanity.
Don D'Ammassa
