Sci-Fi
DREAM STATE
Castle Bridge Media
“Dream State is a story of survival, blending Lord of the Flies with Yellowjackets, and adding a dash of Fantasy Island just for fun. Loyalties will be tested, horrors seen, and not everyone will make it to the end. A powerful, gripping story that will make you think twice about that next island retreat.”
—Richard Thomas, author of Spontaneous Human Combustion
"A savage, hard-hitting tale which asks the question: Is survival worth it if you become a monster in the process? Great stuff!"
- Tim Waggoner, Multiple Bram Stoker Award-winning author of We Will Rise
SPECTRUM
C&R Press
“Martin Ott’s Spectrum is a wonderfully thought out jump down a futuristic rabbit hole filled with tantalizing imagery, rich characterization, and well crafted prose. I wasn’t sure where it would all lead but trusted that in Mr. Ott’s capable hands, it would not disappoint. Hang on tight, you’re in for one hell of a ride.”
– Dani Kollin, Prometheus award winning author of The Unincorporated Man.
Spectrum plugs us into a futuristic world where nothing, even skin color, is quite as it seems. An imaginative and poignant Sci-Fi romp, Martin Ott has penned a gritty yet rousing journey of self-discovery and love. Unforgettable characters are taken on a roller-coaster of a ride from the beginning to the ‘crisping’ end.
- Ethan Reid, author of The Undying Trilogy

SHADOW DANCE
Regal House Publishing
Shadow Dance is a powerful dance of language, a shadow of history, military trauma, and a unique coming-of-age tale of a man's own past and attempt to move forward. Martin Ott has created yet another masterpiece full of suspense, beauty, and heart. This book is chilling, wonderful, a must.
--Kim Chinquee, author of Snowdog
"Ott's prose crackles and sizzles. There's never a dull moment, right to the riveting end. It's the kind of novel Hemingway might have written had he been alive today.”
Erik Martiny, author of Night of the Long Goodbyes

Story Merchant Books

INTERROGATIONS
Fomite Press
"In these wide ranging stories and fables, Martin Ott proves himself the wise interrogator. While his characters cling to denial Ott - amused by their suspicions, lies, and self delusions - gets past all resistance not through force but rather his skillful probing and keen knowledge of the human heart."
—Diane Lefer, author of Confessions of a Carnivore
