Bio’s (Fiction) 1992 [Yet to be Published]

 

Bio’s was a fictional novel about a military police investigator who upon investigating a homicide in Southern California, stumbles upon a hidden government program from the Vietnam War. The scientific program, first creating bioengineered military working dogs for warfare, progresses to creating a small group of bioengineered soldiers.

Hruby based the book upon seeing the last bioengineered, military working dog, left over from the Vietnam War, kenneled at Marine Corps Base, Camp Pendleton, California in the early 1980’s. Hruby stated that the dog looked like no other he or others had ever seen. Its eyes were abnormally gray/green in color and it was known by all handlers as the most vicious dog they had ever worked with.

“Midnight on the Custer Battlefield” is a haunting and dark reveal into the Battle of the Little Bighorn. Follow a minute-by-minute account of this infamous battle including illustrations and photographs that put faces-to-the-names of those involved in this historical and tragic event.

He delves into the mysterious twenty-to thirty minute pause by Custer and his men during the heat of the battle, giving new insight into what most likely was the cause. Also, how Custer most likely died at the Battle of the Little Bighorn which is far removed from the spectacular portrayals often shown in the movies. He leaves us with his conclusion on what really happened that day between the Indians and the soldiers, and why?

“Through my Eyes” is an extraordinary, poetic journey through life, death, lust, love, mythologies, religions, childhoods, dreams, and so much more. It is an odyssey on a global scale by the internationally known poet, George Hruby.

 

A published poet since childhood, this is the first ever released book dedicated to his works.

It includes 72 poems, each one followed by its own ‘backstory’ featuring the composition’s origin, inspiration, and in some cases, hidden meaning. In addition, 25 photographs feature the writer throughout his life. A preface written by JV Lambert chronicles his extraordinary story.

A ‘must-read’ for anyone caught up in the thralls of life.
