About this ebook

You want gonzo? Oh yea, we got it.

Ivan Pavlov’s greatest creation: genetically modified Soviet Apemen Warriors from the distant past have somehow found themselves in the present day. Their mission: defend Mother Russian or die. The only problem is their spaceship, the Null, crashes not on the Earth, but somehow, within the Earth’s hollow core. Now, deep beneath the planet’s molten mantel, marooned in a massive inland sea, they’ve upset the locals: mutated Atlantean Warriors who’ve long been subjugated and warped by the Esoteric Order of Dagon and their Deep One servitors. Now, if only they could all just get along...

But the Apemen see their twisted and wrecked Null as the last remaining fragment of their beloved Mother Russia, and they’re not about to back down.

Decades in stasis, now Russian Officer Lophyya awakens within the spaceship Null, but immediately he knows something isn't right. Alarms blare and that ever-calm computer voice isn't helping his nerves. Instinct and enhanced intelligence spur the apeman to determine where they are, what has gone wrong, if his Captain lives, and their beloved mates. Their ship, crippled, knocked off course, but their mission paramount, to defend Mother Russia, or die. Their ship has crashed deep within the Earth's hollow core, though these genetically modified Russian Apemen don't know that yet. Lophyya succeeds in awakening his Captain Bahznt, just in time to fend off a sudden attack! Approaching the Null is a squadron of mutated Atlantean Warriors, whose mission it is to determine who these interlopers are, what threat they pose, to take their technology, and destroy them. I can easily imagine these mighty ape-men with thick, Russian accents. The quick fighting action throws Lophyya into pure fight or flight mode. He must fight to survive, and defend his comrades and mates, above all else. Swiftly, this Russian officer, far from home and uncertain of his current footing, learns of the true terrors of the deep. Fear of the unknown will not paralyze these uncanny ape-men of Russia. Rage and blood lust meet head-on with heartless, thoughtless hatred. Who, indeed, fires upon Mother Russia, and in response, who intrudes upon the domain of Atlantis? This feels like the beginning of what could be an exciting serial story, released in installments the way they used to be, "...next week, when we return to the exciting adventures of..." and I'd be one happy reader to discover more of what might happen next in this standoff in the deep!

About the author

Brannon Hollingsworth was born to create. An author, speaker, poet, publisher, game designer, content creator, script writer, art director, and unapologetic Christ-follower, Brannon is a passionate creator and teacher of youth who promotes family-oriented ministries. Brannon is the proud father of five, four of whom are home-schooled. By day, he writes and produces entertainment and educational content from his top-secret, hidden base in north Alabama. By night, he creates new ideas with boundless enthusiasm.

Brannon is the co-author of H20 the novel, the first in the Eternal Elements Series, from AMG Publishers. His other recent works include the comic "Sundered" (for Awful Good Games), “Tenet’s Tale”, part of the mosaic novel Skein of Shadows from Dark Quest Publishing; “Firestarter”, part of The Guestbook, an Amazon best selling horror anthology from Four Fools Press, Angel's Glow, Part 1 of The Peacock Papers, The Truth Is Out There, Cold Vengeance, and Ambush (parts of the supernaturally-laced Tenet's Tales series), Nod, a supernatural shocker, Russian Apemen from Space, a rollicking genre-mash-up roller coaster, Prelude to Okolona, a shocking Civil War spook tale, To Live and Die in Dixie, a massive collection of frightful Southern tales, and last but not least, Robot Dad, which is his first foray into fully illustrated children's' books.

Brannon has also been published extensively in the role-playing industry, writing fiction and designing games for several publishers including: Paizo Publishing, Sword & Sorcery Studios, Green Ronin Press, Bastion Press, Sovereign Press, Necromancer Games, Atlas Games, Fantasy Flight Games, Eden Studios, Skeleton Key Games, Ignitus Innovations, Wandering Men Studios, Dark Quest Games, Ambient, Inc., and Citizen Games. Brannon has also been published in several role-playing periodicals such as Dragon Magazine, Gaming Frontiers, and The EN World Player's Journal. He was also a co-creator and producer of his own card based role-playing game, Untold, called “…a clever idea well executed…” and “Excellent” by Forbes. Recently, Brannon also participated in the highly successful Sundered World Kickstarter by writing the seminal "Issue 0" of the plane-spanning comic, Sundered.

Brannon’s publications are not limited to game design and fiction, however, as his work has appeared in County Extra Magazine and also creates online content, such as educational and entertainment videos for sites such as YouTube (The HowtoDrawandPaint Channel), Udemy, Curious, PublicVine, and others. Recently, a children's video series he wrote and co-created, The PicTrain, was optioned by TBN, the Trinity Broadcast Network, also known as the largest Christian cable channel on the planet.
