Penguins have the reputation of being silly, stupid, avian Antarctic clowns.
The officers were soon overwhelmed and had to make a hasty retreat. Twenty cops repeatedly fired into the mass of the penguin incursion, but as one went down, three replaced it. A single penguin against a car had no effect, but hundreds made quick work of Detroit, Germany, and Japan’s best. The local sheriffs arrived shortly thereafter and gunfire erupted as the deputies laid down suppressing fire to cover those who still had the ability to escape. To give their families a chance to run, men swatted at the diminutive horrors with boogie boards, umbrellas, or whatever they could find. The carnival-like atmosphere of the day turned to carnage.
Beach goers who were enjoying a late spring afternoon were taken completely unawares. Both by Steven Hammond, Clovis, CA, Rockhopper Books. The Warlord, The Warrior, The War, September 2013, trade paperback $6.99 (6 + 112 pages), Kindle $1.99. Rise of the Penguins, December 2012, trade paperback $19.99 (8 + 722 pages), Kindle $3.99. Killer penguins are rising up in a war against humans for world domination! Is Steven Hammond serious? Judging by his hilarious Facebook page, hell, no! But his Rise of the Penguins series (published through CreateSpace, no matter what he says about Rockhopper Books), is so straight-faced that it is a good example of Rambo-type take-no-prisoners military fiction. His goal: to drive the human presence away from Antarctica and to exact revenge for the atrocities of the past against penguinkind. From this race a powerful leader declares himself Overlord and unites the penguin clans of the world. An ancient race of penguin has reemerged. Your rating: None Average: 3.8 ( 4 votes)
