Bob Finley dips his writer’s pen into many pots: science (especially oceanography); nature (especially wilderness backpacking and photography); and a smidgeon of fantasy, especially ‘what if’ explorations of things that lie just at the blurry edge of possible.

United Cherokee States of N’America: The Knower mixes terrorism, Native American history and post-apocalyptic survival into a military culture that has to find its way in a new and dangerous world.

Nice Doggie unceremoniously drops the reader into the southwestern Virginia high country, with its vast meadows and mountain balds, its semi-wild ponies, boulders and blueberries and…in Nice Doggie, a wild dog pack that’s killing off a group of experienced backpackers, one at a time, as they literally run for their lives through the mile-high backcountry.

The Victoria Stone explores the underwater world of Marcus Justin, the billionaire pilot of the world’s only civilian nuclear research submarine. The Victoria Stone follows him from his undersea home off Miami Beach across the Atlantic Ocean as he tracks a nuclear terrorist who holds the world…and his friend…hostage.

United Cherokee States of N’America: The Knower is available as a Kindle e-book now. Its sequel, the second of a trilogy, is in production. Nice Doggie and The Victoria Stone are also now available. The Victoria Stone is also available in paperback.

Coming soon is The Angel Express, a fantasy novel in which God hires a recently-brought-back-to-life smuggler of illegal aliens to drive a special ambulance that inserts also-recently-revived ‘saints’ into special job openings around the country.
