Warning! Hacking books
I have been trying to find out for a little while why my book sales had been lower than they should be. After investigating the area, I found that there are websites that have been and are continuing to offer my books "for free" or for their gain. Basically, I have been ripped off. One of these websites even promotes them as being 'best free eBooks'. One thing I would really like is that the people who received these books send me their critiques. That would be helpful and at least I would get some exchange. I am posting this as a warning to any of you who might also be in the business of publishing your books digitally on line. Keep a good eye out.
Meanwhile, for those who "can afford them", these books were written to entertain and give you new visions on several subjects. Each one of them were written with passion. The price you pay for each one of my books is nothing compared to the amount of hours taken to give you a good story. This is the purpose of my writing.
Do not judge a book by its price.
I hope you enjoy reading them.
Regards,
Claire

Coming Soon!
Coming soon, another book which I am in the process of writing. Here is a little preview of what you can expect:
“It is being said that time and space could be tied to their creator’s stance of what they are to him or her. It can possibly be perceived by those who become the receivers of this viewpoint as something different or the same.” Claire Manning Writer/Author 2016

What her publisher thinks of her writings/Ce que pense son éditeure à propos de ses livres
Here is what her publisher, Lucie Brodeur,
Propriétaire entreprise chez Les productions luca thinks about her as a writer/author:
I would recommend all my authors but especially Claire Hamelin Manning for her hard work writing novels and science fiction. They are full of imagination and so exciting! A publisher cannot but adore her work after reading her texts. I must always reach the end of the story ... without being able to let go. That's saying something. We can feel her motivation! I wish, that all of you who read this, find her work to be as interesting and as entertaining as I do.
Voici ce que son éditeure, Lucie Brodeur,Propriétaire entreprise chez Les productions Luca pense d'elle en tant qu'auteur.
Je voudrais recommander tous mes auteurs mais en particulier Claire Hamelin Manning pour son travail assidu d'écriture de romans et de science-fiction. Ils sont remplis d'imagination et tellement captivants ! Un éditeur ne peut qu'adorer son travail en lisant ses textes. Il me faut arriver à la fin de l'histoire... sans pouvoir la lâcher. C'est peu dire. On la sent tellement motivée ! Je souhaite, à vous tous qui me lisez, des lectures aussi intéressantes et divertissantes.

Comments about my books
THE PROGRAMMER
This is the story of two school dropout teenagers who choose to become professional hackers. Their journey brings them into contact with a series of adventure that neither one could have ever imagined. They come across a secret which reveals why humanity is in the present situation and find themselves in a position where they can change the future course of the planet. It is thought provoking and exciting. It is a no mislead.
THE FORBIDDEN BOOK
This book is a little look into religion and its possible influences on our society throughout the ages. Is the Beelzebub the evil satanic entity you have been lead to believe? Prepare to be surprised at the outcome. I have been VERY surprised.
THE HORRIBLE FATE OF OUR BLUE PLANET
One would be inclined to think words like Armageddon, Pharmageddon, Apocalypse and "God's Wrath " are good words to qualify future dramatic occurrences. But rarely do we hear about plain and strict Hope. Claire Manning has built a short novel which, at first sight, appears to be only fantasy and entertainment, however, it would be a mistake to go on this first impression. Here is a genuine new writer who has something to say and says it very well. A depressing mood and dark thoughts have become " Orders of the day " in many of today's books; Manning uses a highly concise style to express obvious truths while dragging the reader into an eventful journey which could very well become a reality. Her own moral values are barely disguised and it is quite refreshing indeed to take a fresh new look at the actual world and smile with relief at the outcome. Such a viewpoint is cruelly missing and she is to be thanked for this hopeful glimpse into new possible realities.
"Great idea, that will never die - searching for the best in mankind, always trying to be better...this will never die and will always be an interesting subject. Original way of achieving the goal I think this is your contribution to the idea - not just that we have to be better, but also how to get there - really well done. The Si-Fi version may not be acceptable for everyone, but my family loves it (especially me). Your book is very promising and I personally think this is a pretty impressive start. By all means - keep writing because we, the readers deserve to be spoiled by beautiful stories. I actually decided to read it again.
Keep up the good job and let me know where I can sign for an advance copy of your next masterpiece."
PROJECT CARBON COPY
What is behind all the UFO sightings? Get the real story behind the headlines. You will never believe again that we are alone in this universe. This book will give you more information than you want to know and may cause you to have more than a few sleepless nights. Be prepared to be shocked.
THE REVENGE OF THE DRAGON
This is a great story for "children" of all ages, for a mother to read to her children, a grandmother to her grand-children. It contains all the elements of good and evil. Like all children's stories it contains a hero and a villain and the triumph of good over evil. It is set in the orient which lends a sense of mystery and adventure. It is a beautiful story.
TERRA COTTA
Terra Cotta gives a view of a very bleak future for planet Earth. Certainly we are heading in that direction, with pollution and our failure to be conscientious caretakers. But one determined man persists in a quest to resolve the problems of a planet gone bad. He finds some fascinating, sometimes strange, and entertaining solutions. As you may guess, not everyone is on board. A few have a vested interest in seeing the planet stay the way it is. Claire Manning has woven these elements into her story, and you'll just have to read it to find out the details and results.
THE WILL OF SAM WILCOX
Animal lovers will like this story. The story makes you feel what the main character is living and how strangely enough her life change on a dime. A lawyer's will is the cause.
THE ULTIMATE DNA
A parallel world awaits for you. Find out how you fit in this scenario. The last two human specimen are left on their own device to find their way out. They are pure DNA and someone is after them. Multiverses awaits for you. A very surprising outcome!
