Announcing the E-book Publication of HOLLYWOOD IS AN ALL-VOLUNTEER ARMY


 The Second FIXXER Adventure 
 Hollywood is an All-Volunteer Army 

By Steven Paul Leiva 

Is now available as 

 An original e-book novel 

 To be read on your Kindle, Nook, Kobo, iPad, PC, Mac, 
 Not to mention Android and BlackBerry Smart Phones 
(the novel is too sophisticated and witty 
to be read on Dumb Phones) 


Hollywood is an All-Volunteer Army 

Is NOT available as 

A printed and bound book, an illuminated manuscript, a papyrus scroll or a clay tablet 

BUT 

All the text is exactly the same as if it were  
Not one word has been deleted 
or altered due to digital creation!

The totality of the content and the thrills of the story remained unaltered 
and will NOT appear as only 0s and 1s! 


WHAT IS THAT STORY? 

What those in the know in Hollywood really know is that if they need a dark deed done, if they need a sticky personal or professional problem “fixed,” they can call upon the mysterious and dangerous Fixxer. Whether you are a successful comedy film director whose “art” has never truly been appreciated because the country’s most important film critic has held a grudge against you since college, or you are a neophyte and naïve screenwriter who resents the professional blackmail she has just suffered, you call upon the Fixxer. 

For the former, the Fixxer co-ops the identity of a Network morning talk show host and solicits the aid of his personal Prospero, Petey—who conjures up the worst blizzard in Manhattan’s history—to effect a “personality change” on the critic. For the latter, the Fixxer gives her the advice to just deal with the slings and arrows of Hollywood life for, after all, “Hollywood is an all-volunteer army.” But when the beautiful young screenwriter’s body is found in a snowdrift on the frozen Bering Sea, just off the Seward Peninsula in Alaska, wearing a Donna Karan evening gown and high heels, and with her lips burnt off, the Fixxer’s moral outrage becomes his most important client and he goes into action to avenge her death, finding evil plans afoot to “draft” Hollywood into a class war conspiracy. 

Hollywood is an All-Volunteer Army will thrill you with a story that moves from Hollywood to Manhattan to London to the Greek Island of Corfu to a castle by the sea steeped in Hollywood history and, finally, to the skies over California where World War II Spitfires and Messerschmitts dogfight to the death, and wherein the Fixxer, his comrade-in-arms Roee, the Captain (the Fixxer’s personal police officer), Petey, Newsstand Mike, and—most excitingly—Lydia Corfu, a sexy and beautiful Greek actress, film director, tycoon and human typhoon, do battle against the amorality of the universe.


THE BENEFITS OF AN E-BOOK: 

Despite how weighty a tome the book might be 
It weighs no more than the device you are reading it on! 

An e-book is not vulnerable to 
Dust, silverfish, mold and bookworms (except the metaphorical kind) 


SO DOWNLOAD “HOLLYWOOD IS AN ALL-VOLUNTEER ARMY” TODAY FOR ONLY 
$3.99 

AND WELCOME TO THE 21ST CENTURY. 

The first Fixxer adventure, Blood is Pretty, was praised by literary legend Ray Bradbury and Oscar-winning film producer Richard Zanuck, and has been compared to the film work of the Cohen Brothers and Quentin Tarantino. It is available as an e-book for $2.99 from Crossroad Press; the Amazon Kindle store, and Smashwords.
