Cover Reveal and Volunteer Request – The Last Drive – a Sequel to Eternal Road – #newbook

November 9, 2022 · by John W. Howell · in Book Tour · 101 Comments

The Last Drive, a sequel to Eternal Road, is finally done and ready to go to print.

Here is the blurb.

In the sequel to Eternal Road, Sam and James are reunited to look for two souls, Ryan and Eddie. Ryan was killed in Afghanistan, trying to avoid a schoolyard with his crippled plane. Eddie Rickenbacker, Ryan’s hero, is to guide Ryan to his Eternal Home, and now both are missing.

The higher-ups believe that there has been some interference in Ryan and Eddie’s journey by Lucifer, so Sam and James have the task of finding Ryan and Eddie to get them back on the road despite the evil interference. Unfortunately, the machinations designed to prevent Ryan and Eddy from completing their journey takes the pair to horrifying testing grounds. The places visited represent the best work of the Devil. They are the trenches of World War I in France, gladiators at the Roman Coliseum, the sinking Titanic, Hiroshima 45 minutes before the bomb, and the Auschwitz concentration camp in 1943.

This book is for you if you like plenty of action, strong characters, time travel, and a touch of spiritual and historical fiction. So, join Sam and James as they try to find the missing souls while staying one step ahead of the Prince of Darkness, who is determined to destroy all that is good.

I want to avoid all the business and the rush of the holidays, so the release date will be in January. I plan to have a tour and if you want to help spread the word, send me an email at johnhowell(dot)wave(at)gmail.com. If you volunteer, I will provide a unique copy for each post and recognition of your site on mine. I hope to have only one tour stop a day. In your email, tell me any dates in January or early February that won’t work. I will be confirming your date within 24 hours of receiving your email.

Thanks in advance for your offer to help spread the word.

Uh-oh, two missing souls. The places that might hinder them all sound depressing. Lucifer did a great job choosing them. Good luck to Sam and James. If all of your promo sites are filled, wonderful. But if you need another place, I’d be happy to host you. Most of my readers are mystery fans, though. Still, you might reach some new eyes.
