Print-On-Demand Sensation, Jeremy Robinson, Has Second Novel Published Through Breakneck Books

Barrington, NH — October 7, 2006 — Breakneck Books, a publisher of fine action/adventure thrillers has published their first novel, “Raising the Past” (Trade Paperback, 308 pages - $14.99) by Jeremy Robinson, the author of The Didymus Contingency, a print-on-demand success story and Barnes&Noble.com bestseller now available in three languages.

Raising the Past, Robinson’s second novel, is a science based thriller touching on the topic of free will, and has been touted by James Rollins, New York Times bestselling author of Black Order and Map of Bones, as being, “a rollicking Arctic adventure that explores the origins of the human species. …it starts with the excavation of a frozen mammoth in the wilds of the Canadian tundra and ends with a pitched battle for the future of mankind. A story not to be missed!”

When asked about his novel, Robinson said, “I really love how Raising the Past turned out. Having a blurb from James Rollin’s, my favorite author, is wonderful, but I’m really looking forward to hearing what the fans think. It’s their opinions that mean the most to me.”

“This novel takes readers to the frozen Nunavut region in Canada where readers will experience a much more frightening and dangerous story than in The Didymus Contingency,” Robinson added. “While The Didymus Contingency was a Christian thriller, Raising the Past is a mainstream thriller and the result is a much darker…more intense story.”

Breakneck Books will publish ten books in 2006/2007, is currently open for submissions and would love to hear from other local authors. They consider thrillers of all genres, but especially those similar to James Rollins, Douglas Preston or Michael Crichton. Submissions can be made via e-mail at: e-mail protected from spam bots.

Robinson will be making two appearances in October. On Tuesday, October 17th at 7:00 P.M. at the Barnes & Noble in Newington NH, Robinson will lead a writers group discussing his non-fiction work, POD People – Beating the Print-On-Demand Stigma, a book about self-publishing. On Saturday, October 28th from 12:00 P.M. to 4:00 P.M. at Waldenbooks in Rochester NH, Robinson will be signing copies of Raising the Past and greeting fans.

About Breakneck Books:

At Breakneck Books, our goal is simple: to entertain our readers with some of the best action/adventure thrillers written today. As fans and voracious readers of great authors like James Rollins, Douglas Preston, Lincoln Child, Michael Crichton, Steve Alton, Matthew Reilly and Dan Brown we know how precious few books in this genre are produced each year. The supply isn't meeting the demand and we here at Breakneck, the only publisher to specialize in action/adventure thrillers, intend to change that by publishing high quality, breakneck-paced thrillers (mixing in bits of religion, science-fiction, history, real-science, mythology and technology) sure to keep readers turning pages into the wee hours of the night.

Raising the Past Synopsis:

FROM THE ICE…
A mammoth, flash frozen in solid ice 10,000 years ago is brought to the surface by a team of scientists. An act of sabotage frees the giant from its icy tomb and reveals the secret held inside.

OUT OF THE MAMMOTH…
The body of an ancient woman, cloaked in furs, slides out of the mammoth's belly. But it is not the woman that holds the team's attention…it is the object she is clutching…a device created by an advanced civilization.

THE HUNT IS ON…
The device is accidentally activated, summoning forces who seek its destruction. It is the key to mankind's salvation and freedom from the men behind the curtain, pulling the strings and leading humanity towards destruction.
