I am pleased, and a bit nervous, to announce that My Tank is Fight! is now available for preorder from Amazon.com. Who the hell preorders a book? You, hopefully! Ever preordered copy of My Tank is Fight! boosts our sales stats through Amazon and will increase the exposure the book receives. I’m not expecting a number one seller from this book, but I’d sure like to beat out “A Grandmother’s Guide to Fonts and Borders”.

My Tank is Fight! is a humorous pulp-history look at more than 20 unusual or insane inventions of the Second World War. Each chapter features a detailed examination of the real history and technology behind each invention and all 19 chapters are linked by fictional narratives. The book is also lavishly illustrated, with 18 full-color illustrations by Josh Hass, and more than two dozen detailed black and white illustrations by Mike Doscher. My Tank is Fight! is not a dry analysis of the forgotten weapons of war, it brings those weapons to life.

"My Tank is Fight" is an upcoming book from Something Awful and Kensington Publishing. Zack Parsons is adapting and expanding his series of articles that look at the most bizarre inventions of the Second World War with a generous portion of humor. Detailed black and white illustrations by artist Mike Doscher and lush color artwork from Josh Hass will bring these ridiculous inventions to life. Many of these strange inventions have never been professionally illustrated before!

• The P. 1000 "Ratte" - A German super tank so large that it used a cruiser turret with two huge naval cannons.

• The Seeteufel Submarine - A midget submarine with tank treads that could drive on land or along the bottom of rivers.

• The Nazi Space Program - A multi-stage rocket booster, reusable spacecraft, and plans for an orbiting space station.

• The Project C - A huge flying aircraft carrier laden with a half-dozen jet-powered German suicide bombs.

• The Christie Flying Tank - American efforts to combine a tank with an airplane.

• The P. 1500 "Monster" - The biggest cannon ever made stuck to the biggest tank ever made. What could go wrong?!

• Plus an orbital bomber, a nuclear weapon aimed at New York City, a submersible cruiser, a super aircraft carrier made out of ice, early infrared scopes, anti-ship missiles, and many more inventions!
