Jezebel Johnston: MASTIFF has set sail!


I just got the news today folks,  that the 7th JEZEBEL JOHNSTON novel, subtitled MASTIFF, is now available on Amazon. For the time being it is only in paperback format, but should be up as a Kindle download quite soon. So stay tuned because this is yet another adventure of our intrepid pirate lass that you won't want to miss!



This is the awesome cover by artist Adam Shaw. There are also 9 black and white illustrations by Airship 27's own in-house artist/setup man, and all around nice guy, Mr. Rob Davis. Here's one of them again, so you can see how drool-worthy they are.



Here is what my publisher, Airship 27 said in their press release:

JEZEBEL JOHNSTON Vol 7

MASTIFF


Airship 27 is thrilled to announce the release of volume 7 in its best-selling pirate queen saga, Jezebel Johnston by Nancy Hansen, “Mastiff.”


Stranded far from her Caribbean homeland, pirate Jezebel Johnston struggles to survive over the alien waters of the Barbary Coast. Through a strange twist of fate, she, and two other freed slaves, Zuri and Amaka, come under the protection of the famous Maratha Indian Warlord Shivaji Bhonsle. The soon to be Maharajah has a strong disdain for foreign interference in his country along with a unique respect for the faith of others and the intelligence of women.


Thus Jezebel and her sisters-in-arms feel a strong obligation to aid the famous warrior by volunteering to participate on one of his seagoing raids against the Mughal overlords. To do so, they will have to become spies, gather information on which ships are carrying what cargo and how best to take them.


It is a dangerous game, one Jezebel and her companions are aptly qualified for, their bravery mingled with their natural charms set into motion a daring seagoing assault that will have serious repercussions throughout the Indian world.


“I’ve pretty much run out of words to describe how amazing this series is,” says Airship 27 Production Managing Editor Ron Fortier. “Nancy writes a sweeping, historically accurate adventure saga sure to entertain any lover of pirate lore. The action never stops and her characters are truly colorful rogues battling their ways across the seven seas.”


Pulp Factory Award Winning artist Rob Davis provides the 9 black and white interior illustrations and the amazing Adam Shaw the beautifully painted cover.

So this is the deal mateys, you buy some of these books, and I'll keep writing them as long as I know I have an audience. When you consider what 2020 was like, isn't a good read that allows you to get away to a different place and time for a while worth a little expense? Writing this one kept my head together when it seemed the world around me was coming apart at the seams, and something scary was in the news daily. So you get your copy as soon as possible, because I am already over 4500 into the next JJ novel right now, and going strong. This is what I do for a living these days, and it's the most rewarding job I've ever had. Sure would like to continue doing what I love right into my old age. So please, if you buy it and you enjoyed it, spread the word. The more readers I can reach, the better for all of us in this small niche of the publishing field. This is 100% homegrown business, and a labor of love for most of us, but we need your support. Thank you, each and every one of you, for your patronage and your willingness to support the kind of fiction and artwork that is hard to find now at such affordable prices.
