ORLANDO, Fla. — Central Florida-based author Steve Berry has been crafting novels for more than two decades and while he still has plenty of stories to tell, being on the road can get a little tiring.
“I’m a little old for this!” he joked, while discussing his recent book tour, which has brought him all up the East Coast to Atlanta, Baltimore and more during a three-week-long tour to promote “The Omega Factor,” which was released on June 7.
This new book is a departure for Berry, who has been writing books about hero Cotton Malone for more than 10 years. “I’ve done 16 Cotton Malone books and as you know, he’s my guy, [but] this year, he decided he wanted to vacation. He needed to get a year off. He was a little wore out.”
