About this series
The Cyberpunk Detective Series Goes to London!
But in The Electric Sheep Massacre does our detective come back? And, is that before or after someone tries to kill him in the world of virtual reality?
Liquid Cool is the action-packed (and funny), debut cyberpunk detective series.
Liquid Cool is Blade Runner meets the Maltese Falcon. In the next installment of the sci-fi/cyberpunk detective series, author Austin Dragon takes our private detective from the wild, concrete wastelands outside the supercity Metropolis across the Great Ocean to London Prime (that's what they call it in the future) to the most dangerous place in the world—virtual reality, where all of a sudden people are killing and dying.
It's the cyberpunk novel reimagined—an ever-rainy world of colossal skyscrapers, hovercars, flashy neon streets, and futuristic mechanization. Metropolis isn't a bad place, but it isn't a good one either. Uber-governments and megacorporations fight for control of the fifty-million-plus supercity, but so does crime.
Welcome to the high-tech, low-life world of Liquid Cool.

The Sci-Fi Detective Thriller Gets Cool...Liquid Cool! Liquid Cool Book #1 is the FIRST-IN-SERIES action-packed (and funny) sci-fi detective series. Meet a private eye with a cool hat, laser gun, and attitude. But don't touch his red hovercar -- or you could get shot!

It's more gritty action and dark humor than you can handle. In the debut novel that started it all, author Austin Dragon shows why you never want to meet a cyborg in a dark alley. Liquid Cool is cyberpunk reimagined. It's cyber-noir. It's science fiction meets the detective thriller in an ever-rainy world of mega-skyscrapers. Hovercars fly above in the dark, bustling skies and gray people walk below on the grimy, flashy streets of this "neon jungle." Metropolis isn't a bad place, but it isn't a good one either. Uber-governments and megacorporations fight for control of the supercity, but so does crime. It's here we meet Cruz, our private eye (and unlikely hero), in this supercity with a million victims and perpetrators. Sci-Fi Gets Cool…Liquid Cool! So grab Liquid Cool today and begin your action-filled and funny sci-fi detective adventure with Cruz and company! ˃˃˃FIVE STAR REVIEWS "Lots of shooting, lots of crazy maniacs, lots of action and fun!" "I loved this book. It takes place in the future, and what a weird future." "A funny, intelligent (and sometimes crazy) main character…playing detective" "Cool and Smooth." "Too much fun!" "This is probably one of the very best cyberpunk novels I've ever read!!" "Page Turner. Constant excitement. The best in 35 years of reading!" "Delicious Stew That Is Part Sci-Fi, Part Detective, and Part Humor – It is hard to combine two genres into one novel. It is even harder to combine three. Part of the trick…is to know when to back off on each single genre so that the combination, while less than full in any one genre, is a good combination. Austin Dragon uses that trick… this novel would get about three stars in each genre alone, but the combination well deserves five!"

2
