THE JEHOVAH CONTRACT Victor Koman's Prometheus Award-winning novel is back in a new edition! A dying assassin is given one final assignment and one last chance for survival. The job: find God Almighty and destroy Him. The payment: eternal life. With the aid of a mysterious trio of women -- a beautiful lady gambler, an ancient Hollywood witch, and a telepathic hooker -- Dell Ammo breaches the gates of Heaven and Hell to pull the Cosmic Trigger. Before The DaVinci Code, before the Left Behind series, The Jehovah Contract set the standard for adventurous, over-the-edge religious fiction. Hard-boiled assassin Dell Ammo must become a harder-boiled detective in order to track down a God he doesn't even think exists. He enlists the reluctant assistance of blond bombshell Anne Perrine -- a woman with the uncanny ability to beat the gaming tables of the underworld metropolis Auberge. In that crime-ridden realm buried beneath the streets of Los Angeles, Dell discovers an even greater danger -- the religious conspiracy known only as the Ecclesia, dedicated to protecting God at any cost. In a climactic final battle worthy of Philip K. Dick at his most imaginatively paranoid, Dell Ammo clashes with the Almighty in all His varied forms, leading to a confrontation that rocks the universe. "A fascinating concept, imaginatively delivered." -- Ray Bradbury "A most unusual and entertaining work of satirical SF." -- Publishers Weekly "A novel of cosmic -- and comic -- proportions." -- Library Journal "Explodes like a string of firecrackers ... The suspense never lets up ... I highly recommend it." -- Robert Anton Wilson "THE JEHOVAH CONTRACT will surely be excoriated in religious and literary circles, but this damnation of God should be pondered objectively by both believers and nonbelievers. It is a good, thought-provoking effort that is that rarity in fiction: philosophy that entertains." -- Piers Anthony "A parody of a Chandleresque detective novel that can hold its own with Chandler and the best of his followers." -- San Jose Mercury-News "Crammed with elements calculated to outrage nearly everyone...." -- The Denver Post "THE JEHOVAH CONTRACT... is conceptually audacious to the max." -- Norman Spinrad "Audacious ... a fine combination of logic and madness." -- Robert Shea "I wholeheartedly recommend this Mission Impossible/Phillip Marlowe/Mike Hammer/John Milton Faith Opera." -- Philip Jose Farmer Victor Koman's screenplay of The Jehovah Contract has been optioned for film. Ray Bradbury says of him, "Would that there were a dozen more writers like him in the field." Koman's short stories have appeared in publications such as The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, Galaxy, and the anthologies Weird Menace, The King is Dead: Tales of Elvis Post-Mortem, the Dark Destiny collections, and Free Space. He lives in southern California with his wife, Veronica, and daughter, Vanessa, as well as their cat, Kali. Koman graduated summa cum laude from Redlands University in 2001 as a Bachelor of Science in Information Systems. In 2004, he received his MBA from Pepperdine University.

SOLOMON'S KNIFE Victor Koman's Prometheus Award-winning novel is back in a new edition! Ray Bradbury says of him, "Would that there were a dozen more writers like him in the field." Dr. Evelyn Fletcher is a surgeon caught in a maelstrom of controversy. She has secretly devised a surgical procedure that could alter the lives of millions. When the beautiful and successful Valerie Dalton walks into Fletcher's office for a routine abortion, the doctor realizes that she has found the perfect experimental subject. Karen Chandler and her husband sought pregnancy for years with no success. They greet Fletcher's offer of a radically new procedure as a miracle. Karen, with no hesitation, agrees to undergo the clandestine surgery. When little Renata is born and then falls deathly ill, only one person can save her life. A woman who does not even know her daughter exists. Under a barrage of media scrutiny, Valerie Dalton must face the courts with her lover in an unprecedented custody battle. Ultimately, she plumbs the depths of her shattered soul to find the answer to the conflict that rages within her and all society. Solomon's Knife is a masterful and fiery mixture of medical thriller and courtroom drama that fuses every facet of the most violently debated issue of our age. The reality it foreshadows is only years -- perhaps months -- away. Praise for SOLOMON'S KNIFE: "Solomon's Knife... is a species of that too-rare genus, moral fiction. But it is inhabited by real people instead of cut-outs stenciled with a specific point-of-view. I cared about these people even as I was swept up in the fascinating legal/ethical/moral conundrum they faced. Riveting, spellbinding, intellectually challenging, and emotionally satisfying." -- F. Paul Wilson "...an exciting page-turner sure to offend readers of all views.... Rousing pulp-fiction-cum social-prophecy." -- Kirkus "... 'transoption' would neatly put to rest all the outrage surrounding abortion." -- Publishers Weekly "Gripping.... Solomon's Knife is a novel that does what only a great novel can do: It gives us a new context." -- Brad Linaweaver, Atlanta Journal-Constitution "Solomon's Knife is that rare accomplishment, a philosophical novel with characters who seem like real people you can come to care about. Victor Koman has managed to fuse a serious, fair-minded, and sensitive explication of one of the more emotional issues of our time with a page-turner of a story.... Koman's novel will not only entertain readers, it will help those on all sides of the abortion issue clarify their thinking." -- Orange County Register "Aptly named for the biblical story of King Solomon, this novel will be a welcome addition... in light of all the ethical questions it addresses." -- Library Journal Victor Koman has also written a screenplay of Solomon's Knife. He lives in southern California with his wife, Veronica, and daughter, Vanessa, as well as their cat, Kali. Koman graduated summa cum laude from Redlands University in 2001 as a Bachelor of Science in Information Systems. In 2004, he received his MBA from Pepperdine University.

Samuel Edward Konkin III and three-time Prometheus Award-winner Victor Koman present the secret story of Santa's rebel son in the new, full-length children's book: THE LEGEND OF ANARCHO CLAUS. Little Janie White wants a chemistry set for Christmas, but her parents prohibit it. Waiting up until midnight for jolly, plump old Santa Claus to appear so that she can plead her case, she opens her eyes instead to see a jolly, rotund middle-aged elf dressed in black appear on her hearth. He's Anarcho Claus, who brings forbidden toys to non-coercive girls and boys.  Whether it's skateboards, laser pens, dirt bikes, an official Red Ryder carbine-action 200-shot range model air rifle with a compass in the stock, or -- yes -- chemistry sets, Anarcho Claus sneaks out of Elf-Land every Christmas in his sleek black sleigh piloted by C.B. -- a very gruff polar bear -- with reindeer Rudy leading the team with his black-light nose stealthily guiding the way. With Santa and the US Air Force in pursuit, Anarcho Claus spirits Janie away to the North Pole, where she learns that toys are a waste product in Elf-Land and Santa has been dumping them on humanity for his own secret purposes! Wry, wickedly witty and fast-paced, THE LEGEND OF ANARCHO CLAUS is the year-round Christmas gift you'll want to read to your children over and over. Samuel Edward Konkin III is the author of two seminal works on libertarianism and Agorism: NEW LIBERTARIAN MANIFESTO and AN AGORIST PRIMER. Over the course of thirty years, he wrote, edited, and published newsletters and magazines such as Laissez Faire, New Libertarian Notes, and 101 issues of the longest-running publication of its kind, New Libertarian Weekly. Known to his friends as SEK3, Mr. Konkin graduated cum laude from the University of Alberta, serving as head of the Young Social Credit League there. He received his Masters in Theoretical Chemistry at New York University, but left NYU without submitting his Ph.D. dissertation in Quantum Mechanics to pursue his lifelong efforts to promote Counter-Economics and agorism. He founded the New Libertarian Alliance, the Movement of the Libertarian Left and the outreach organization The Agorist Institute. Mr. Konkin passed away Feb. 23, 2004. His body of work is available from KoPubCo. Victor Koman, a native Californian, is the author of several books, including the underground classic millennial-noir novel The Jehovah Contract and his medical thriller Solomon's Knife.  Both novels won the Prometheus Award in their respective years and are available in trade paperback from KoPubCo.  Ray Bradbury says of Koman's first award-winner, "The Jehovah Contract has a fascinating concept, imaginatively delivered," and of Koman, "Would that there were a dozen more writers like him in the field."  The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction calls his unprecedented third Prometheus Award-winning novel, Kings of the High Frontier "an intriguing, exhilarating, thought-provoking and, yes, sprawling novel that brings back the sense of wonder that drew so many of us into science-fiction in the first place." The novel was the first book published exclusively on the Internet to win the Prometheus award.  Mr. Koman lives in Southern California with his wife, daughter, and three cats.
