August 2006 Book Release Party for Chance Fortune and The Outlaws
Shane signed with PMA Literary and Film Management, Inc in August 2004. By November of that same year, PMA had acquired a deal with Starscape Books / Tor for The Adventures of Chance Fortune series. Chance Fortune and The Outlaws was released in July 2006.
Shane lives with his wife Lesley in Chattanooga, Tennessee and continues to work on the next books in The Adventures of Chance Fortune series, along with several other novels.
Before he was the hero Chance Fortune, he was Josh Blevins, a normal boy from Tennessee. This original story takes place between chapters two and three of my novel, Chance Fortune and The Outlaws. Josh exists on an earth filled with sentient robots, intergalactic aliens, and super-powered heroes.
*Not appropriate for very young audiences
I once did a brief stint as an adult newspaper carrier. The last house on my route was a dark, decrepit piece of work, and had earned the nickname spooky house among my coworkers. Being the imaginative guy that I am, I began to wonder: What if there actually was something evil and netherworldly residing there?
Shane Berryhill's wondrous Saturday matinee of a book, zooms and crackles and pops from page one! If George Lucas wrote young adult novels on an overdose of caffeine and comics, it might approach something like CHANCE FORTUNE. I am an instant fan of this series, and can't wait to board the next rocket-fueled Chapter of Chance and Company. Highest recommendation!"
