Ancient Rookie was originally started as the sixth book of my action/adventure “Asps” series. However, along the way, I fell in love with the back-story characters and turned it into a sports-fantasy book before I knew what I was doing.
While it does have some elements of an action/adventure novel, it is what it is—a sports-fantasy book about an old guy (Navy, retired) who is in an auto accident. Before the book is finished, we have bionics, baseball pennant races, trades, and—ultimately—the World Series.
