4 Best Fun Links – that’s a high mark to meet. Let’s start off with a bang. Free books for everyone! That includes my own, Zombie Turkeys.

You don’t know what books I have? Check my books page.

4 Best Fun Links – Your Second

Andy Zach’s Cover Artist Ian Bristow at work

Ian Bristow and I are collaborating on my next novel, Secret SupersThe cover reveal is this Friday. Check my Facebook page for more details.

Next, something silly.

4 Best Fun Links – Your Third

It’s time for some amazement. Enjoy!

Next bit of wonder for you follows.

More wonder follows.

You don’t believe zombies’ eyes glow red? Check out this picture of a flock of zombie turkeys at Navy Pier in Chicago, from Zombie Turkeys back cover.

If you’re not impressed by a 110,000,000 million year old tapetum, how about the current photos from Pluto?

Have you heard about the teen who built a fusion reactor? That’s my next link.

Finally, I have an 80 megapixel picture of the moon for you.


4 Best Fun Links – Your Fourth

Then we have these next fun links:

I also like this one.

I mention Paranormal Privateers. Here’s a chapter icon:

Have some more fun with this following cartoon.

Continuing with the funny theme in links, we have this one.


4 Best Fun Links – Your Last

Yes, I know this doesn’t add up to four links. I didn’t think you’d mind some extra.

I belong to the Sci Fi Rountable group on Facebook and weekly they ask for writers to contribute their best 100 word samples around a theme. This theme was character description.

My contribution from Paranormal Privateers follows.

“We’re in trouble,” General Figeroa said to the assembled team—paranormal patriots, John Smith’s capuchin ambassador, and the alien AI, Wilhelmina “Minnie” Wallace. 

She’d whipped up a portable droid, a golden metallic humanoid, obviously female. She made her robot an exact copy of Marilyn Monroe. She slouched in a chair at the table in a white dress. Her glowing blue diamond eyes captured everything for three hundred and sixty degrees around her. Her third eye, located where the occipital bone was, peered through shiny blond hair.

“What now?” Diane asked.

“Are you referring to my computed .019 percent probability of victory against my former overlords?” Minnie asked.

from ‘Paranormal Privateers’.

Win 3 Free Books from Author Andy Zach

Win 3 Free Books from Author Andy Zach–how? The first book you can win is Paranormal Privateers. I describe the contest in my Facebook post below.

Here’s another hint on winning the book: who is this on the hoverboard?

Speaking of Paranormal Privateers, here’s another related item:

I just thought of a way to give another book away–become the 500th or 1000th person to like my Facebook page above, or my Zombie Turkeys page below:

All you have to do is send me a screen shot, like this next screen shot:

3 Free Books

Then I’ll look at my like count and if you’re 500 or 1,000, I’ll send you an ebook of your choice.

Here’s another ‘cool’ video from the Zombie Turkeys page:


Win 3 Free Books from Author Andy Zach – The Second Way

I feel guilty about this way. But it’s worth the guilt. This method can give you up to four books. My Life After Life Chronicles and my soon coming Secret SupersMy book launch date is March 29.

3 Free Books
Life After Life Chronicles

What is this magical, mystery method?

Nope, not creating a world-famous pop hit. Just review one of my books and post it on Amazon or Goodreads. Contact me when the review is posted and then I’ll send you a book of your choice

This means you’ll get four free books for four reviews.

Note you do not have to give a favorable review. Oddly, some people prefer to see some low rated reviews. Amazon cares about the number of reviews rather than the average score.

Some authors try to scam people and Amazon by bribing people with books on the condition they get good reviews. Other people try to making a living giving favorable reviews in exchange for money. I don’t want any of that!

As much as I hate 1 star reviews (I’ve gotten some!) I take solace in that everyone is different. Not everyone will like everything. Even CS Lewis, the author of the Narnia fantasy series, gets dozens of one star reviews.

I got a new review of Zombie Turkeys the other day. Let me give it as an example:

5.0 out of 5 stars

Love it

February 24, 2019

This book was really good. It kept me wondering what would happen next. Can’t wait to read the next one.

Here you go, the very first link. I laughed and laughed as I watched this. I remembered some scenes from my childhood, fifty years ago. Others I’ve never seen. Have you seen these scenes before? Let me know what you think in the comments or contact me. I’ve got a free ebook for the best comment.

My dad had subscriptions to Popular Science and Popular Mechanics and I always read those magazines through the 60s and 70s. I was tickled to find this article in PM. It was so interesting! Do you think so?

Did you know I like tea, as well as funny zombies? Check out my new video next, where I talk about both.

9 Great Links For You – The Fourth

I’ve played basketball since I was 18 and I’ve followed basketball since I was 13. Now I’m following a great college talent, Zion Williamson. Here’s the best video of him so far.

I meet a lot of great authors. One of them, Zachry Wheeler interviewed me. If you’ve followed this blog long or not, check it out and see if you learn something new.

Zeedub Bezzies: Travel, Tunes, and Zombie Turkeys with Andy Zach

by Zachry Wheeler | Jan 23, 2019 | Zeedub Bezzies

Zeedub Bezzies is an ongoing series where I showcase talented authors by goading them into random questioning. It’s good fun, a little weird, sometimes awkward, but always entertaining.

My my my, how to describe Andy Zach in simple and conventional terms. A nigh impossible task, but let’s try anyway for our own amusement. Peculiar? Yeah, but that’s par for the author course. Quirky? Most definitely, but that doesn’t paint the fullest of portraits. Delightfully bizarre in a preternatural Lemony Snicket kind of way? Mhmm, that’s about as close as we’re going to get. Andy found it most agreeable to participate in Zeedub Bezzies, so let’s find out more about him.

9 Great Links For You – The Sixth

The next video is six minutes long and boring. It just shows a light pulse moving from the Earth to Mars and back. The awesome thing is, since it’s moving at the speed of light, it gives you a feel for the vast distance between Mars and the Earth, even at our closest approach.

How slow light moves between the Earth and Mars
