 Author Robert N Macomber has a new novel which is now available for pre-order in hardcover, The Darkest Shade of Honor, due for release on 15 March 2010.
This eighth novel of the Honor Series begins with Commander Peter Wake, of the U.S. Navy's Office of Naval Intelligence, at New York City in 1886, where he meets two intense young men who will dramatically influence his life: Theodore Roosevelt and José Martí. Presented with a secret coded message, he deciphers it for Roosevelt, and soon wishes he hadn't.
Returning to Washington, he is assigned to follow up on the secret message and uncover the extent of Cuban revolutionary activities between Florida and Cuba, along with investigating rumors of Spanish government agents operating in Key West. Most of all, this is to be accomplished quietly, to prevent international embarrassment for newly elected President Grover Cleveland, the first Democrat in the White House in 25 years.

 Author Sean Thomas Russell has a new novel which is now available for pre-order, A Battle Won.
Winter 1793 - the Reign of Terror rips through revolutionary France, as every able-bodied man is pressed into military service. The city of Toulon has turned itself over to the British, the red ensign of Lord Admiral Hood's flagship Victory, offering a defiant symbol of protection to its people.
In Plymouth, Master and Commander Charles Hayden is summoned to the Port Admiral-his orders are to return to the ill-fated frigate HMS Themis. Placed in temporary command, he is to join the escort for the last convoy of the season-braving the wintry seas to supply Hood's fleet in the Mediterranean.
