The Art of Discount Travel: Your Guide to Cheaper Flights & Cheaper Nights by Bill Anthony
About The Art of Discount Travel: Your Guide to Cheaper Flights & Cheaper Nights by Bill Anthony
No matter your travel style, the focus of this book is to help you spend less on flights and accommodations. To that that end, the author Bill Anthony presents dozens of tips and strategies. Some are super simple and can be put to use immediately. Others have a few more parts, but none are complicated. Each is thoroughly explained. And all are quite workable.
Tucked among various humorous, but spot-on observations, the author shares personal experiences that prove fancier lodging and a comfortable class of service on flights can occasionally cost less than budget hotels and economy tickets. It’s all a matter of knowing where and how to find sweet spots and sweet deals, including several simple strategies for scoring free, or almost free, flights.

Author Bio:
The signs were there and they were easy to see. As early as age 6, Bill Anthony revealed a passion for travel. When away from home, he was never homesick. And “are we there yet?” was a question never asked. For Bill, every step of the journey was interesting.
Family treks up and down a chunk of the USA’s Eastern Seaboard were fun, but he yearned to experience much more of the world. Age and economics were the barriers of his childhood, but going to college marked the end of age as a stop. Officially an adult, he was left with a single, sizable barrier. He simply did not have enough money to satisfy his wanderlust. He noticed that this seemed to be an obstacle held in common with most college students, as well as many working adults.
So he set about finding ways to substantially lower the cost of travel, and to do so regardless of the style or class of travel chosen. Hence, his preference for the word “discount” rather than “budget.” Years later, he named his freshly-outlined travel seminar “The Art of Discount Travel” and followed suit in naming his first book.
Shock and Awe
When the most dangerous jihadist group yet, Al DERSH, has apparently planted atomic bombs in New York, D.C., and L.A., a league of heavily armed fundamentalists, the Holy Jesus Christ Militia, claim that they are the only ones that can prevent the imminent destruction of the U.S.A.. As the nation’s elected officials are too busy with kinky sex and hard drugs, General Aaron Khan, the newly appointed head of the Defense Intelligence Agency who is of Palestinian Catholic extraction, has to figure out what is really going on while there is still an America left to save.

It was a job they’d give to anybody because organized gangs were attacking armored cars with AK47s and RPGs. I made a feature length film satire of reality TV in which a wino, a whore, a criminal, a security guard, a top model, a CEO, and a bourgeois literary lady are locked up in deserted warehouse and forced to torture, execute, and cannibalize each other.

Nor any dumb enough to try.
But there was a woman who could. My ex-wife, Evie.
And she did. F*cked me up real good.
Thanks to her, I gave up my dream of racing, but I can’t run from fate forever.

With my focus on the road, the last thing I need is a distraction, but that’s just what Laina is.
My best friend’s little sister feels off limits, until she isn’t.
Perfect curves and a smile that could melt hearts, this woman has me wanting to say yes from the start.

Angela Sanders is an International Bestselling author, wife, Mommy, and retired Navy Chief. She spends her days writing, editing, reading, or all three. She left the political world for the things that dreams are made of: books!
If not for several authors taking her under their wings, she wouldn’t be writing today. She was literally forced to publish her first book. Not because she didn’t think she “could” do it, but because she was afraid someone might actually read her work.
This box set, The Hybrid Coven, is a spin-off of her very first series, Delphine Rising (all set within the same world.) If you enjoy this set, look for her other works and be sure to find her snark and humor while reading Delphine Rising. Those characters were created from a much younger version of herself, her sister, best friend, and her own mamma. *snickers*

Tangier Bank Heist: An Interzone Mystery
About Tangier Bank Heist: An Interzone Mystery
Right after the war, Tangier was the craziest town in North Africa. Everything was for sale and the price was cheap. The perverts came for the flesh. The addicts came for the drugs. A whole army of hustlers and grifters came for the loose laws and free flow of cash and contraband.
So why was I here? Because it was the only place that would have me. Besides, it was a great place to be a detective. You got cases like in no other place I’d ever been, and I’d been all over. Cases you couldn’t believe ever happened. Like when I had to track down the guy who stole the bank.
No, he didn’t rob the bank, he stole it.
Here’s how it happened . . .
