Dogs have been with us since we first decided that cave life was all the rage. And they’ve been shaping history right alongside us, not just as pets, but as partners. Such as Sergeant Stubby. This little Boston Terrier is the most decorated war dog ever. During World War I, he warned soldiers of gas attacks, found wounded comrades, and even caught a German spy.

Flash forward to the courageous canines of 9/11. In the aftermath of one of the most tragic events in modern history, nearly 300 search and rescue dogs worked tirelessly alongside first responders at Ground Zero. These brave souls navigated treacherous rubble, locating survivors and offering comfort to rescuers and victims alike. Their unwavering dedication showcased the profound bond between humans and dogs, reminding us of their incredible capacity for heroism.

Going back and around the world, consider the story of Hachiko, the loyal Akita from 1920s Japan. Every day, Hachiko would wait at Shibuya Station for his owner to return from work. Even after his owner passed away unexpectedly, Hachiko continued to wait at the station every evening for nearly ten years. His loyalty touched the hearts of many, leading to a statue erected in his honor—a testament to the enduring faithfulness dogs have shown throughout history.

Dogs aren’t just pets—they’re heroes, companions, and symbols of the best parts of humanity. Their paws have walked alongside us through the pages of history, and their wagging tails have been there to celebrate every victory and comfort every loss. They’ve inspired legends, art, and now, a trilogy that combines all the chaos and joy they bring into our lives.

Which brings me to the next chapter in our adventure. Buckle up (or leash up?), because Book 2 is here and it’s time to get nuts!

GOOD BOYS 2 – UNLEASHED!

The cover of this book hints at some historical element, so I’m going to jump back in time for a moment. Remember Homer’s Odyssey? After 20 years of fighting, Odysseus returned home to find his dog, Argus, clinging to life. Though he was wearing a disguise, the old dog had no trouble recognizing him. Overcome with joy, Argus wagged his tail one last time, and died peacefully.

Writing that brought tears to my eyes because my second dog, Sarah, a Golden Retriever, became riddled with cancerous tumors while I was living in Los Angeles. She was clinging to life. I returned for a visit, spent the day with her, and the next morning she passed. Ouch. Before anyone trolls about dogs not living to 20, my first dog, Buddy, was the same age as me, and died when I was 20. Also, the pooch followed Sarah’s passing, bringing chaos and playing with Thor (Sarah’s companion Golden Retriever) was given a name that reflected Sarah’s passing: Argus. Can you guess which dogs I named? If you’re misty-eyed now, grab the book and dive back into the GOOD BOYS universe! If you haven’t read the first book in the series, you’re missing out! Just read the reviews!

AUDIOBOOK:


Anyone who listened to GOOD BOYS 1 knows that Tom Taylorson not only delivered an amazing performance, he brought the story to life, perfectly voicing the characters in iconic ways. And you can expect the same in Book 2. If you haven’t given audiobooks a try or stopped listening for some reason, I challenge you to listen to these books, performed by Tom, and not fall in love with the story.

THE STORY:

When alien species converge on Earth, each enlisting the help of humans, only one author has the testicular fortitude to envision the madness that ensues: Jeremy Robinson.

In the chilling aftermath of Good Boys: The Lost Tribe, Micah, Jess, and the ever-loyal Golden Retriever, Grover, seek refuge in the snowy seclusion of a New Hampshire farm, along with their new Kynolari friends. But as winter’s grip tightens, so does the Draun’s hold on Earth. The signal sent by the Visionary has awakened the Draun DNA inside two hundred and fifty million humans, the number increasing every day. Nowhere is safe, and humanity is on the brink of unimaginable chaos.

Forced to flee after a devastating attack on the farm, the heroes are scattered, pursuing desperate gambits across the globe. In the sands of Egypt, Praxion’s team seeks to uncover the secrets of Anubis, the Egyptian god of death and the leader of the Kynolari’s Lost Tribe. A second team, led by Chirk, ventures into the heart of Mexico, searching for a lost Incan temple of Xolotl, whose association with death, and physical description, matches that of Anubis. Both teams race against time, guided by mysterious legends and plagued by dangers, both ancient and modern.

Separated from the others, Micah and Jess embark on a perilous journey south, through a transformed America, now a mosaic of Draun-fueled terror, where danger lurks at every stop, and no one can be trusted.

As ancient truths unfold into dreadful revelations, the bonds of friendship, love, and loyalty are tested against the backdrop of a humanity teetering on the edge of annihilation. The quest for hope, the fight for survival, and the battle for the soul of the species are woven into a tapestry of adventure, heartbreak, heroism, and humor.

Jeremy Robinson, #1 Audible and New York Times bestselling author, returns with a masterpiece of suspense, humor, and heart, where the greatest battles are fought within, and the hope of mankind may rest in the paws of a Golden Retriever named Grover.

STRAIGHT TALK

Okay, time for some straight talk. GOOD BOYS 1 got a raw deal on Audible when it came out. The sales ranks were frozen on the site on the day the book came out and for the following week. Why is this a problem? When my books come out and all you amazing people pick up a copy, the boost in sales rank propels my books to the top rank in its category (usually Sci-Fi) AND gets the books featured on Audible’s front page. No sales rank? No visibility. Because of that lack of visibility, the book didn’t sell as well as expected. Also pretty sure it caused Audible to not send their traditional “New from an author you like” e-mail. But with Book 2, we get another chance to get this trilogy cranking out sales! How can you help? Reviews. Social media posts. Talk to friends. All the usual stuff. Just spread the word!

Thanks again for reading my work and following this crazy journey. If you want to keep up with all the madness going on, come join the Tribe on Facebook. It’s a nearly 5000 member strong group of fans (and myself) talking about the books, and the TV shows, films, and comics to come. Oh yeah, and we give away free stuff every week!

Hope to see you there!

Why Jeremy Robinson Hasn’t Been Responding (Hint: It’s Not Aliens…or a Squirrel)

Hey, amazing readers, fans, and brave souls who’ve journeyed into the bizarre worlds I’ve created! If you’ve been wondering where I’ve disappeared to—whether it’s running ink with gang of sentient squids, abducted by interdimensional sasquatches, or just plain lost in my own fictional madness—the truth is, I’ve buried myself under a mountain of projects.

This year alone, I’ve been cranking out four new novels, five graphic novels, and a screenplay, which has left me feeling like a caffeinated squirrel on a roller coaster. So, if my replies have been MIA, it’s not because I don’t care—I just literally can’t find enough hours in the day!

The Novel Overload: Four Books and Counting

Yep, you read that right: four novels this year. GOOD BOYS 1 – 3 and book 3 of THE SENTINEL: THE HOST. I’m getting started on a new standalone novel titled ARTIFACT. The next three after that are already planned and scratching at my mind, asking for my attention. Told myself I was going to take a break after THE HOST, but I made it just four days before I started going loco. My imagination is a perpetual motion machine. Resistance is futile.  It’s been a full-blown writing marathon of sci-fi, horror, and every bizarre twist my brain throws into the mix. It’s been an awesome ride, but it’s also left me with precious little time for anything else.

Who’s a Good Boy?! You are! Oh, yes you are! GOOD BOYS by Jeremy Robinson – Available Now!

Buy From Amazon Audible

Dogs. What can I say about them? Historically, a lot. They have played a major role from the beginning of my life until now, nearly 50 years later. They have comforted me in my darkest hours. They have wrestled, chased, and fetched and scared the shit out of us.

1984 – Buddy boy Paisley Robinson fell through the ice on a frozen pool. My brothers, our friends, and I were sledding in the Flynn’s backyard. The owner of the pool poked her head up over the fence and said, “I think your dog is in our pool.” We ran around and saw Buddy struggling to stay up in the frigid water. Happily, we rescued him from the pool, carried him up the hill on a makeshift stretcher (a sled), and got him in the station wagon before all nine of us piled in and drove him, through a snow storm, to the emergency vet. Buddy survived but it was a VERY close call.

If you made it here from Free Comic Book Day in Rochester, NH, thanks for snagging a poster or card! If you want to stay up to date on all the comic books in the pipeline, be sure to sign up for the newsletter. I only send them out when new books are coming out, and the comics should start hitting store shelves in late 2024. No exact dates, but we are in talks with a well known publisher and are hoping to tag team these bad boys with them. When that’s done and announced, I’ll do a proper post about the comics. For now, you’re just getting the Issue 1 covers.* Click on each image to see a larger version.

*The Project Nemesis image is not an actual cover. It’s actually just the artist’s first SKETCH of Nemesis!

I’m super proud of Breakneck’s (my publishing company) team of artists: Tiago Palma, Mario Santoro, Augustin Padilla and Manuel Rodriguez, along with our badass editor, Kane Gilmour. With the exception of Nemesis, these are brand new Jeremy Robinson stories, one of which (1001) I’ve been working on for 30 years! If things go well, I’ll be making comics for the next 30.
