BOOKS COMING SOON TO EQUUS PUBLISHING, A ‘PUBLISHING SANCTUARY FOR MEN’:

Jan 1?: LA 2032 Starting Over, by the amazing popular writer Ron Hull. Ron’s latest novel, an intriguing look at LA’s dystopian future.

REVIEW: Ronald W. Hull’s novel, ‘Starting Over,’ unfolds with apocalyptic and dystopian gravity. Set primarily in the Los Angeles area, the story begins in 2032 at the outbreak of a pandemic spread by ‘Amazonia-9’… This novel thrives on the intricacies of “starting over” from the ground up. I highly recommend this groundbreaking cautionary tale. –Eva Pasco, writer in realism

REVIEW: Ron Hull’s post-apocalyptic novel is a dark look at what the world might look like following a global pandemic exponentially worse than what the world experienced with COVID [as] Humanity teeters on the edge of extinction… A gritty, uncomfortable, yet compelling story that reminded me that the end may not come with explosive annihilation. It may just as easily come with microscopic stealth. –Rebecca McKeehan, author, poet, essayist

 

Feb 1: Frenzy, by Glenn Lazar Roberts, audible version.

Mar 1: Invisible Empires, by E.B. Chernyak, trans. from the Russian. A learned study of secret societies in old and new times.

NEWS: I have recently completed the Prequel to Maalstrom, titled Temple of the Double-Sun, a novella of 34,000 words. This work tells the story of the original colonists from Earth as they land on the virgin uninhabited planet Maalstrom with instructions to colonize the planet. Needless to say, things go very wrong. For readers of Maalstrom and The Selk King who were wondering how it all started and why there are occasional remnants of a prior technical civilization, the story Temple of the Double-Sun will answer all your questions.

MAALSTROM by Glenn Lazar Roberts.

Descendant of forgotten colonizers from Earth, the ruthless warrior-noble of the ancient City of Ven, Flores of the Turlicum, plunges into vicious wars on the alien planet Maalstrom. Stumbling into Ven’s forbidden Temple, Flores falls for the beautiful priestess Amina, and unleashes events that threaten to undermine the planet’s fragile inter-species truce. In the tradition of Robert E Howard’s Conan stories and Edgar Rice Burroughs’ Martian series, bloody primitive conflict at its best. Click here for more. . .

“Glenn Lazar Roberts is one of the finest writers of unconventional prose in contemporary fiction. His wonderfully inventive plots and mastery of the language place him in the company of Calvino, Burges, Gass… Roberts has created a world of scary prescience and hair-raising adventure… Maalstrom is not only highly imaginative, it’s a splendid work… Highly recommended.” —C. Thorman, author of Holy Orders

FACTION FOR MEN:

 

NOTE:  THE FOLLOWING WORKS ARE ACADEMIC STUDIES WITH MANY FOOTNOTES:

ISLAMIC HUMAN RIGHTS & INTERNATIONAL LAW by Glenn L. Roberts.

Traditional Islamic law has long been regarded as academic, local in nature, and relevant only as a measure of the inadequacy of women’s rights in the family law regimes of a few Islamic states. In opposition, the author argues that the Sharia is both a quasi-regional customary international law capable of competing with prevailing customary international law, and brings its own international agenda of “Islamic human rights” that compete with and seek to displace “Western human rights.” Rather than acknowledging the rights of Muslims qua Muslims internationally, aggressive proponents of an “American customary-law-of-human-rights school” have responded with a new militant doctrine of “instant customary law” to aid the U.S. in its “war on terror,” targeting the Sharia wherever encountered, and triggering a global “war on Islam.” PLS NOTE: this is an academic work with many footnotes. If footnotes intimidate you, do not buy it.

SHARIA LAW & THE ARAB OIL BUST by Glenn L. Roberts

The delayed development of the Islamic world, in defiance of the formulaic approaches long favored by economists, suggests that traditional Sharia and Islamic values and principles are at least partially responsible for the region’s persistent backwardness. By analyzing the impact of the legal regime of the Sharia on Saudi Arabia during the Arab Oil Bust of the 1980s, this thesis concludes that Islamic social values and the Sharia’s de facto role as an uncodified pre-emptive Arab common law implemented with high regard to precedent by ulama with extraordinary power of judicial review had the effect of accentuating the effects of the Oil Bust, making the theory of the Petrocurse a subset of a larger Cost of Being Muslim. On the other hand, the author concludes that not only is the Sharia not constrained by its nature to playing a deleterious economic role, but that it has broad commercial application, both domestically and internationally, and a new generation of more flexible Muslim economists, lawyers, and financial theorists have pointed the way toward a possible comprehensive modern adaptation of Islamic laws and principles. PLS NOTE: this is an academic work with many footnotes. If footnotes intimidate you, do not buy it.

COMMISSAR & MULLAH: SOVIET-MUSLIM POLICY FROM 1917 TO 1924 by Glenn L. Roberts

This was written with the aid of my graduate research on site in Russia and Uzbekistan. During the revolutionary period the Soviets came into political and cultural conflict with Russia’s Muslims. Despite indications that the majority of Muslims desired political unification based on their Islamic heritage, the Party divided them into separate “nationalities” along narrow ethnic lines, incorporated most into the RSFSR, and attempted to uproot traditional Islamic institutions and customs under the aegis of class war. Resistance took the form of pan-Muslim nationalism, a reformist political conception with roots in the Near East. This conflict not only aborted the export of revolution to the Islamic world, contributing to the passing of the revolutionary era in Russia, but aided Stalin’s rise to power. Soviet policy succeeded politically, defining the terms of interaction between Russians and Soviet Muslims for the next 70 years, but failed culturally in 1921-22, when the Party was forced to suspend its “war on Islam” as the price of political control. PLS NOTE: this is an academic work with many footnotes. If footnotes intimidate you, do not buy it.
