Novelists Unwind Interviews Rick Barry and Jennifer Uhlarik

May 30, 2018

Since we’re on the eve of Memorial Day Weekend, it only seems fitting to highlight Rick Barry’s WWII novels, The Methuselah Project and Gunner’s Run.

However, The Methuselah Project is much more than a military thriller. The protagonist, a German POW, becomes a guinea pig for longevity experiments. By the time he escapes, seventy years have passed but his appearance hasn’t changed.

Fun fact: The cover model is wearing Rick’s bomber jacket. In fact, those are Rick’s shoulders inside that jacket!

If westerns are more your style, then tie your horse to the hitchin’ post and take a listen as Jennifer Uhlarik shares how a Florida gal fell in love with this classic genre.

Barbour Books has published seven of Jennifer’s novellas in their popular historical collections.

Among other topics, Jennifer and I talk about the Sand Creek Massacre, the inspiration behind her first full-length novel which releases next year.

The Novelists Unwind June Giveaway will be announced on Saturday, June 2nd at novelistsunwind.com. Be sure to enter for your chance to win a print edition of an amazing inspirational novel.
