KRILL AMERICA
Where do you find redemption for the human spirit? “Krill America” triumphs in a stunning humanity-baring conclusion.
This novel is an essay on human interaction when people with little in common are thrown together and forced to
work toward a collective goal. A story of struggle and the measure of man’s success, KRILL AMERICA is a thriller
rife with “unrelenting tension and suspense." The characters and plot are so real that the impending-death story
of the Galveston research vessel is described by critics as having "I was there" graphic wealth.”
Storied between “The Old Man and the Sea,” “The Flight of the Phoenix,” and “Titanic,” sails the last tour of Krill
America. Stricken crippled in the Antarctic, the ship is adrift and doomed. Chief Engineer, MAX VILLANUEVA faces his torn life and the challenge of
a lifetime with a rattled crew of ragtag survivors at the bottom of the world.

True Backstory for Modern Commercial Radio" demonstrates some common double standards and how much
more complicated a triple standard can be. World-famous Austin music celebrities and recognizable local radio
personalities embody Bryant's description of this genuine 1970s Texas-style nostalgic win. SIMPLE TRIPLE
STANDARD is seasoned with love, passion, and an unexpectedly lethal twist.
Bryant L Herman lives vicariously through stories in the news and privately wonders if his own life story will ever amount to anything nearly as
noteworthy. Relative to where you stand, the answer can be deadly.

hydrogen weapons into west Texas. Their mission is an all-out nuclear-radiation assault on American oil fields.

Facing constant turmoil from production costs, plunging barrel prices, and predictions of a soon-to-be hydrogen-
powered world; a handful of oilmen counter attack. Grit-hardened, these small-town roughnecks reluctantly realize that they are all alone with the
enemy on the Texas desert. Under a looming cloud of nuclear fallout, they defy the imminent demise of not just their individual careers, but
collectively their very lives.

"You brought a gun to the moon?"
