Roger’s latest novel, Counterclockwise, won the prestigious Fantasy/Science Fiction Award in the 13th annual San Diego Book Awards.
A genre-busting book-within-a-book, Counterclockwise combines elements of alternative history, science fiction and thriller, and features a cop, a spy, a glamorous movie star and a dogged reporter.
It is 1942 and the Japanese have overrun Southeast Asia and most of the Pacific islands. They have to be stopped somewhere or Australia could fall. That somewhere is a place called Guadalcanal.
Scared young Marine Kenny Nielsen is in the thick of it as the U.S. launches its first counteroffensive of World War II at this obscure island. Kenny must learn fast how to be an effective fighting man. Or die.
