You may remember the novel Phoenix, by Lori Janeski. It was so well-loved that:
Mike Gallagher detailed Pat Tomlinson making an ass of himself over it.
And now, there’s a sequel.
The Press Release reads as follows:
Raven, The Sequel Sure To Give Pat Tomlinson The Vapors, Releases On April 2nd
On April 2, 2024 – Raven: Book 2 of The Carter Files, by Lori Janeski – will be released by Tuscany Bay Books. The follow-up to, Phoenix, which quickly became an Amazon best seller, has already hit the Amazon best-seller list for Crime & Mystery Science Fiction novels.
The book will be available in Kindle, paperback, and hardcover formats. It will also be available to Kindle Unlimited subscribers as well. The blurb for the novel describes the sequel this way:
Revenge is a dish best served in space.
Dozens of children across the Interplanetary Commonwealth have disappeared from their homes. There are no motives, no ransom demands, no bodies, and nothing to connect the victims to each other – except the kidnapper’s signature, a single raven feather left at each scene.
With no progress on the case, it has been reassigned to Special Agent David Carter and his new team of Division 7 agents. Together with his wife, retired agent and profiler Veronique Carter, they must race against the clock--and obstacles within their own agency--to find the missing children before it’s too late.
But the closer they get to the culprit, the more it appears his real target might be them.

Phoenix is currently on sale on Kindle at $1.99 and will remain so through April 6th.
In late 2023, Internet sourpuss Pat Tomlinson – who allegedly moonlights as an author – falsely accused Janeski and Tuscany Bay Books of “stealing” the cover for Phoenix. Once he refused to apologize and even doubled down on the allegation, NY Times best-selling author Larry Correia lowered the boom on Tomlinson and helped propel Phoenix to best-seller status.
Tuscany Bay Books hopes Tomlinson has the time to scour the Internet for another obscure book cover that bears a bird on a blue and black background. While Raven has already qualified as an Amazon best-seller, we’re sure he could help propel it to a No. 1 best seller in no time at all.
A third book in the series, Eagle, is currently being written by Janeski. Tuscany Bay Books is looking forward to publishing it.
