My latest book was published today. Mortal Men is a novel about paramedics in Hartford, Connecticut in the 1990s when a gang war was raging in the city. It is a work of fiction. Here is the official description:
Paramedic Troy Johnson battles trauma and sickness on the streets of Hartford, Connecticut. When a fellow medic is shot responding to a 911 call, a grief-stricken Troy vows to avenge his friend, while struggling to come to grips with his own mortality.
Mortal Men examines the ancient bonding between friends and partners who count on each other to make it safely home. Written by veteran paramedic Peter Canning, author of the acclaimed Paramedic: On the Front Lines of Medicine and Rescue 471: A Paramedic’s Stories, Mortal Men provides a rare view into the real-life world of street medicine and into the lives of the men and women who fight its battles.
The book is available as an electronic book for Kindle, Nook or any other e-reader.
Here is a link to some of the places to buy it. The books sells for $3.99.
It should soon be available on all ebook platforms including Apple and Sony.
I’ll be writing more about the book next week.
Check it out!
No paperback?
Congratulations, Peter, I’m looking forward to reading the book! (e-book)
I will write more about the decision to just do an ebook next week. The short of it is, my agent, felt it was the best way to go, ebook, low-price and if it sells well, then maybe issue it as a bound book later on.
Thanks, Mike, Your book came this week, so I will be reading that and doing a review on it soon.
When does it hit U.K. markets?
Half way though here. Thanks for putting it out regardless of the medium!
Thanks for the comments. It is available in the UK for download through Amazon UK, and likely others.
Purchased and in progress… Actually ran the battery out on my Nook last night because I couldn’t put it down.
