Armstrong Dent is the leader of a unique team of special ops agents made up of famous celebrities, each with a highly specialized talent. For example, the team's white hat hacker is a multi-billionaire tech entrepreneur, the team's cryptologist is a best-selling author of conspiracy novels, and the team's linguist is a Grammy Award-winning musician. In all, ten team members rotate in and out of the stories. The series is accompanied by the world's first book series soundtrack with songs written and performed by the author. The book includes a code to download two free songs from the original book series soundtrack.

The Anthology Includes:

Armstrong Dent and the Order of the Copper Scroll - In this novella, the world’s most famous secret agent, and his team of celebrity adventurers, must overcome a terrorist who intends to use an ancient biblical relic to destroy the world. The team will have to transform the opinion of the American government which intends to shut them down or allow a new shadow world government to assume control of the entire world.

Armstrong Dent and the Death of the Sun - Armstrong Dent and his team must unravel a villainous plot to overthrow the United States government by a Mexican drug cartel kingpin who uses children as bait. Dent must atone for an earlier mistake that allowed his most cunning adversary to threaten the lives of hundreds of schoolchildren.

Armstrong Dent and the Guerrilla Revolucion - Armstrong Dent and his team of celebrity secret agents must solve the mystery of a sunken pirate ship before a long-hidden World War II conspiracy is exposed that could ignite a new World War. A famous revolutionary is poised to spark a new worldwide uprising on the back of this history-changing cover-up.

From the Author

Order of the Copper Scroll was, by far, the hardest of these stories for me to write. My original goal with the story was to introduce the characters in a way that allowed me to drop in a little background on each of the characters without it being a book of back story. When the idea came to me to put the team in front of a congressional inquiry, I couldn't contain myself. This book has my absolute favorite government skewer. The "top-secret hearing of the Congress of the United States Permanent Joint Committee on Operational and Informational Transparency" makes me laugh every time I see it. A top-secret hearing on government transparency. It's exactly how governments work from the pompous long name to the arrogance of the committee members.The two interweaving story lines blend together in a way where each cut between present and past are directly related to one another. It's an editing technique that you often see in movies but too rarely see in books. As I wrote this story, every scene played out in my head as if I were watching it on the big screen.
Order of the Copper Scroll was inspired by Orwell's 1984 and Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451. The original working title was Fahrenheit 1984. 1984 degress fahrenheit is the temperature that copper melts. When you read the story, you'll see how this fact plays into the plot.

The Men from U.N.C.L.E Unite with the Avengers and Rin Tin Tin

These short stories reminded me of the several old television series, updated for the 21st century. The Armstrong Dent character is a combination of John Wayne, Napoleon Solo, along with a few dozen more. His team is also diverse and full of twists and turns including a dog that appears to understand English.

I found each storyline fast paced, interesting and intriguing. As to the song lyrics at the end, not so much.

This is a really FUN series. Its full of action and adventure, the characters are interesting and funny. It reminds me a little of the A-Team - a little fantastical, lots of witty banter, lots of action, a team of "superheroes" taking down bad guys. I actually got most of this series for free, but I found that the ones I was missing were definitely worth paying for, and so I did. What's also neat is that each book has a code to unlock a song from a music soundtrack for this series. All-in-all, a fun book/novella recommended for fans of action.

Entertaining and Totally unbelievable

Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2014

Verified Purchase

I got this novella for free after seeing it on one of my free book lists. I did not know the author but thought it might interest me. This book was "The Da Vinci Code" meets "Celebrity Apprentice" meets the "League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" which made it a quick entertaining read but totally unbelievable. The team led by Armstrong Dent is a set of government operatives who have special talents but who are also in their normal lives famous for other talents such as blogging, technological & business savvy, rapping (as in hip hop music), sports, and writing. For example, the rapper known as Lil Sugar in his normal life is a part of the team because he is a gifted linguist who can read and translate every ancient language. In this novella, the President asks the team to solve an ancient mystery that could have apocalyptic consequences. You get an introduction to the team , their capabilities and their mission.

Holy Super Hero Batman!

This book was a fun read. The characters are gritty and at the same time funny. The author has a devilish sense of humor and turns the characters into super heroes that take on the bad guys and makes good triumph over evil.

"Armstrong Dent and the Edge of Earth" by Aéyess, is a fast-moving romp through a dizzying array of adventures. Dent and his team of celebrity agents, lead us onward through political satire, special ops, Indian Jones-style tomb raiding, nuclear threats, Dan Brown mysteries, and technical wizardry. And I may have left a few things out.

Whether you classify this as pulp fiction or something else, it falls into the category of fun escapism that usually only comes with blockbuster comic book hero films. What I enjoyed most about the book was the present-time scenes of the “Congress of the United State Permanent Joint Committee on Operational and Informational Transparency.” Even though Senator Rockefeller was over the top, the dialogue was smart and funny. I laughed out loud in several places.

My other favorite part of the novella was the character of agent Wolf (well if you don’t include Intruder). A technical genius, and then some, she is a strong and savvy female role-model. I would have preferred her skills to be more believable, but again, perhaps creating a caricature was the intent:

“In the last five hours, I have secured over half of the processing power of all the computers of the NSA, Pentagon, IRS, NASA, NARC, Microsoft, Google, and Amazon and written code linking them all together in a massive hypercomputer that can process data at least eighty times faster than the fastest supercomputer ever built. Our own quantum computer and the neural network have had all of their processing power redirected into the hyper-thread. I have converted Chief’s unique code-breaking algorithms into a format that can coexist with the NSA’s algorithms, and for good measure I added in the Kabbalah Bible codes.”

All in all, if you enjoy fast action adventure, there is something here for everyone.

Not worth the effort to read - an overused plot line and not used very well. This might have won the Bullwyler -Lytton award.

The stories are fairly good. Extremely short, lacking depth and real substance. You don't get to know any of the characters except superficially.

This book reminds me of two authors Dan Brown and Steve Berry.

Not heard of Armstrong Dent before but assume he is big somewhere. An easy book to fall asleep to I assume aimed at children and those fans of Arthur's round table who fantasise about perfection
