Capt Joseph Jablonski

Joe Jablonski passed away suddenly in May 2014 from natural causes. He left behind several unpublished manuscripts including LandFall. His wife, Darlyn Jablonski, and son, Peter Jablonski, are very excited to have published LandFall posthumously as one of Capt. Jablonski's great aspirations was to get more manuscripts published (prior to LandFall, Three Star Fix was published in 2002 and Pirate Nights, a NY Times Op-Ed piece, was published in 2013).

Capt. Jablonski grew up in Nebraska, graduated from the US Merchant Marine Academy in 1970, then pursued a career in the merchant marines. He rose to the top of the ranks and retired after sailing several years as Captain of APL's MV President Kennedy containership in 1998. Capt. Jablonski was a lover of life. He loved dinner parties, travel, tennis, scrabble and adventure. He is greatly missed.

We are very grateful to Michele Orwin of Bacon Press Books and we hope that you enjoy LandFall. It and Three Star Fix are also available in audiobook version on Audible, Amazon, and iTunes.
