NAStar Driver (vol. 1)

By C. C. Blake

Here comes Burn Job, red lining for revenge, and Hell follows with him.

Finster was a small circuit rocket race car star, until he got caught in a deadly vehicle fire. The love of his life, Sweetie Sally, has been kidnapped by AstroNazis. The life Finster had is over.

Don't mourn him, yet.

The time is ripe for a comeback. From the low level street race, to the small circuit NASCtar races, Finster is on the move, reclaiming control of his life.

After C. C. Blake's exciting thriller won the Story of the Year Award from Man's Story 2 in 2005, he was approached to write a new series for a science fiction offshoot magazine, Androids 2. Always intrigued by challenges, Blake developed two different different series in a shared universe.

NAStar Driver Volume 1 gives us the first two stories in Finster's saga. These tales blend exciting race circuit suspense with incredible sci-fi action.

"Burn Job and the Artificial Honey" presents a deadly street race between Finster and a sluglord alien. It also introduces the maniacal Fuhrer Brett and his AstroNazis and gives us a hero worth rooting for.

In "Burn Job and the Space Pimp's Wrath" pits Finster against eight other combat drivers in a deadly race on an unreliable race track. Here Finster must use teleporting wormholes to his advantage to defeat the deadly menace called Space Pimp!

C. C. Blake

C.C. Blake has lived across the United States, starting in the suburbs of Detroit, to Massachusetts’ second largest city (Worcester) to the country’s seventh largest city (San Antonio, Texas, that is). He’s has a variety of jobs, working as a substitute teacher, the graveyard shift dishwasher at a haunted Denny’s, lab research monkey and teaching assistant at a second tier college. Currently, he works as an automation consultant for a chemical company on the Northeast side of SAtown (which isn’t as Hellish as it sounds). Blake’s most popular character, irrepressible adventurer Chuck Cave, has appeared in over two dozen stories, including the 2005 Man’s Story 2 Story of the Year Award winner “Chuck Cave and the Vanishing Vixen.” The character’s supernatural thriller stories (which began with the seminal “Cave and the Vamp”) are all being released as a part of Vampires2.com’s initial foray into e-books. These new versions are presented in expanded and revised versions, all are the author’s preferred texts. Be sure to collect them all! In addition to his pulp stories for the 2-Empire (Man’s Story 2, Vampires 2, Androids 2 and Paranormal Romance 2), Blake’s fiction has appeared in several anthologies, including Unparalleled Journeys II (from Journey Books Publishing) and Fearology: Terrifying Tales of Phobias (from Library of Horror Press).
