The future of the galaxy-spanning Reich depends on it, so Sloan is offscrewing, swearing, and shooting his way across interstellar space. lt's action, adventure, and disgusting gelatinous aliens as only Victor Gischler can create them.

Reviews

Victor Gischlers Gestapo Mars is the literary equivalent of filet mignon with a side of fries and a cold, cold beer. Hyperviolent, oversexed, full of crazy ideas, packed with action, and delivered at breakneck speed, Gestapo Mars brings together the best of what sci-fi pulp has to offer and then sprinkles enough smart ideas and humor on top to make it the kind of book even those who think theyll hate it should read. -HorrorTalk

Will no doubt please those readers hoping for a space-futuristic story that sharply veers from the norm -Popwrapped

"Gestapo Mars will light your fire in ways other space operas wont. It wears its inspirations well: Buck Rogers (obviously), Barbarella, and the climax is straight out of Star Wars: A New Hope, complete with gelatinous aliens, the Coriandons the spanner in the Nazi works" -Project Fandom

"crazy, sexy, and action-packed." -Bookgasm

"These are the very adult adventures of an irreverent action anti-hero whose derring-do will keep you in stitches." - Count Gore

"Gestapo Marsknows what youve come for, striking its targets with a laser beam right through the bullseye. Gratuitous sex Check. Muscle-bound, gun-toting ultra-violence Check. Nazis using their mega-ship to fire a broadside at a fleet of invading snot-aliens Check. Outlandish fun from start to finish."--Nudge BookGeek

"Sci-fi yarns don't get much wackier." -Publishers Weekly

The action is fast, furious and irreverent...sanity has left the building -Sanford Allen

"A non stop (and fast) romp of action, sex, and funny parody, set in a galaxy that is completely mis-managed by its goose stepping government." -Atomic Moo
