Trail of the Jaguar – One month anniversary
It’s been a month since the debut of my first novel, Trail of the Jaguar, the first in the Clayton T. Porter adventure series. I’m delighted to report that response has been excellent.
You may recall that I’ve pledged to donate a percentage of proceeds from book sales to the Northern Jaguar Project, to help ensure we will always have wild jaguars roaming the borderlands. I made a $150 donation on Arizona Gives Day, 10% of retail sales.
If you have already read Trail of the Jaguar, and enjoyed it, would you be willing to leave me a review on Amazon? Reviews are the lifeblood of publishing and the best advertising a book can receive. Here is a link (or go to your own country’s Amazon site, alternatively):

Thank you for your support, and I'm eager to hear what you thought of Clayton T. Porter's first adventure—even while I’m working on more Porter adventures. (If there was anything you didn’t like about the book, please email me; I’m happy to hear honest criticism. )
Here are a couple of recent posted reviews:
“It is absolutely fantastic. Thrilling, poignant in moments, and downright fun. I’m savoring every page.”
– Ben Wilder, Ph.D., research biologist specializing in the Sonoran Desert and Sea of Cortez
“I admit to having a bit of sleep deprivation this week. It all started last Tuesday when I received my copy of Trail of the Jaguar. I read well into the wee hours of the morning and finished the novel in three nights. Jonathan Hanson has written a thriller that promises to be a great series. His knowledge as a naturalist, sea kayaker and explorer, weapons expert, tracker, and his familiarity with the natural history of the Southwest, particularly Arizona and northern Mexico, creates a multi-colored backdrop for this adrenalin-laced thriller. His protagonist Clayton T. Porter, just like the Sonoran Desert where he resides, can kill you in all manner of ways. Porter uses his desert knowledge and tactical training to dispatch bad guys by the most satisfying of means. Well-researched and timely, I highly recommend this book and can't wait for the next installment of the Clayton T. Porter series.”
– John Gentile, author of Baja Redemption (1) The Guardians of Gaia
