Good Guys, Bad Guys, Sad Guys, and Giants

About the Book

As a disaster worker, a chemical weapons response consultant, a SWAT instructor, a kayaker, a climber, and a lover of adventure Vin D'Angelo has filled his life with rich experiences and colorful companions. His adventures have shown him a surprising world peopled with good guys, bad guys, sad guys, and even some giants. He has drawn upon his memory of them to write this, his third, compilation of short fiction about people with whom he would share a campfire.

There are no campfires in these ten stories, but there are some real characters. Zeke Anson returns in a story about disaster and rescue. Will Kennedy falls in love with a woman who leads him through a revolution to a revelation that he's a better man than he thought he could ever be. A man who found love and lost it struggles back from the edge of insanity. The Last Soldier and the Jazz Singer learn about sadness in war. Rich, in his wheelchair, remembers the goodness that came from another war. Ed Duncan loves a ghost; Ned fights savagery; Dick knows horror; and Streak discovers giants. They'll all share their marshmallows if you'll light the fire.
