Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Jim Miller is a retired military and later civilian pilot. He was once the Director of Operations for the Presidential Airlift Wing at Andrews Air Force Base. He's traveled to every continent except Antarctica and has lived in Austria, Germany, Japan, Thailand, and over a dozen American cities. Along the way, he's been a student of the people and places and their stories. Now, he is the author of more than a dozen novels of overlapping genres. His historical military fiction novels include Heavy Jets, Vienna, Counter Intelligence, One Last Mission, Stealing Ho Chi Minh's Gold, and Once Upon a Time There Was a War, all derived from personal experience and associations. The more whimsical Terror on the Tundra, Terror in Appalachia, and Terror in the Smokies are just fun looks at what might happen if a pack of giant prehistoric wolves evolved in polar isolation find themselves adrift on an iceberg to begin a southern migration that brings them into conflict with humans. It's often told from the wolves' point of view. And then there are Werewolves Don't Cry and The Old Man and the Werewolf. You can sum up his entire library very simply by realizing that, just because it's life or death, you don't have to take it too seriously. Just enjoy reading.
