Is this real? For years, Victoria Custer thought she was dreaming.
While big game hunting in Africa, Victoria discovers her powerful and savage past and remembers her soul mate from 1000 generations ago. Her alter ego or avatar of that life - the cave girl - "moves in" so to speak. Refusing to accept that true love dies she begins the search for her lost love, and finds the modern world may hold as many dangers as her stone age life! That's OK, because she vividly recalls that primitive life when there was no such thing as "have a bad day" because they were all bad. Life was a continuous grueling struggle to survive. That new attitude comes in handy. Whether it's the indwelling avatar that attracts them or something else, Vic runs into bad guys and monsters everywhere she travels.
In this first installment of the epic series The Incredible Adventures of Vic Challenger, Vic is attacked by the wildlife, battles heartless slavers, and meets her first hungry cryptid. One lesson learned: you don't need to be brave, you just need to do what needs done - which becomes Vic's motto.
Fast paced and unpredictable, action adventure in the tradition of the adventure pulps of the early 20th Century. If you like Doc Savage, The Avenger (Dick Benson), Nancy Drew, or Tarzan or any other novels by Edgar Rice Burroughs you will love Vic Challenger.
The series is set in the 1920's and considerable research adds to the "realism". Vic's travels are woven into the history of the time, so you may be asking yourself "Is this real?"
"The Incredible Adventures of Vic Challenger" series is inspired by writers like Edgar Rice Burroughs, H. Rider Haggard, Jules Verne, Arthur Conan Doyle and H. G. Wells; and by characters like Nancy Drew, Lara Croft, Alan Quatermain, Doc Savage and his cousin Patricia Savage, and Dick Benson and his assistant Nellie Gray. The writing style has been compared to Burroughs and is also reminiscent of early action driven horror novels by Graham Masterton,
Unless you are already a fanatical fan of new pulp adventure or of original pulp adventure from the early 20th Century, you are going to be amazed. New pulp adventure is unlike anything else you have read lately. Vic Challenger novels are adrenaline pumping fun and her adventures are unpredictable.
