message 51: by Brenda (new)

Brenda Clough I've been writing fantasy and SF for some years now, and have wandered far. Got sucked into neo-Victorian thrillers for a while! But now I'm back, with a time travel trilogy.
I've always written about power and the abuse of power, and you admit that if you want to be abusive time travel is the way to go! Jack Wragsland originally starts out with the idea of proving Charles Darwin is a piker. Surely time travel is more cool than the theory of evolution...

James Shirk Hello everyone, My book "The Rise of Cathenfahl" will be free during the week Jan 21 through Jan 25. It was written as an accompanying novella to my four-book saga "Merkim's Promise".

Here's the blurb: Dariana, a girl of faerie-human parentage, is born into a world where she cannot stay. As a child, she is taken to the faerie world of Tir fo Thuinn where she is raised by Merrows. Little does she know that upon becoming a young woman, she’ll be forced to spend the rest of her life working as a scullery maid in the basement kitchens of the Merrow Sanctum.
There, year after year, she languishes under the brutal rule of Grocy, the kitchen overseer. However, a recurring dream—one that promises the opportunity of a new life for all mixed-blood servants—fills her with hope. Dari is unsure how to achieve her goal until she meets an enigmatic young man who helps develop her potential.
Armed with a new vision she proceeds, but her plans fall prey to others as they seek to use her efforts as a means to achieve their own unscrupulous ends. Schemes are hatched and tensions escalate. A murderous act during a royal gala changes everything. Now Dari’s dream, her fate, and the fate of all her sister servants hangs in the balance as she fights for her life and her dream.

Here's the link. I hope you enjoy. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MRLE0ZI

Pat Powers The Adventures of Jinkie Jenkins, Insterstellar Sex Reporter: Books 1-3 of the Jinkie Jenkins Adventures, Now In One Exciting Volume!



Click here to buy the book

I've combined “Jinkie Jenkins, Interstellar Sex Reporter – Assignment: Durango 3” and “Jinkie Jenkins on Sexquest Station” and “Attack of the 100 Foot Virgin” into a single tremendous volume, “The Adventures of Jinkie Jenkins.” It's 108,000 words long, and while some people would say it won't make you richer, thinner and smarter, there's no scientific evidence that it WON'T. And that means it WILL make you richer, thinner and smarter, by Occam's Shaving Brush.

Jinkie Jenkins is the story of a virginal young wannabe investigative reporter who is hired by the Interstellar Inquirer and put on the interstellar sex beat by her shady editor. She wants to cover the kidnapping of Alderan, an entire planet, supposedly done by the Borkistani pirates. Instead of tracking down the pirates, she finds herself encountering rump plug plopping contests, herds of wild ponygirls, sex slave training pens, and hucow stampedes, and she buys a sex slave on the cheap and becomes a 100-foot naked virgin giantess. That's the sex beat for ya.

(Yes, hucow stampedes! You know how many other stories have hucow stampedes? None of them! THAT'S how original this story is!)

Seriously, “The Adventures of Jinkie Jenkins” is seriously funny science fiction, and it's sexy as hell, too. How funny and sexy? Well, suppose you time traveled into the present and met a woman with the sexiness and looks of Estella Warren, and the funny of Tina Fey. You'd have to marry her, right? Well, that would be Iliza Schlesinger! Or if you're a woman, suppose you met a man as handsome as Ryan Reynolds and as funny as Stephen Colbert. That would be … Ryan Reynolds!

So go out and marry Iliza Schesinger and Ryan Reynolds, they're already married to other people in THIS timeline, but hey, this is science fiction and alternate timelines, right? And in the MEANTIME, buy this book! It's just like having Iliza Shlesinger for your wife, or Ryan Reynolds for your husband, if they were into sex slave fantasie -- but in book form. And this book is a LOT easier to get than Iliza Shlesinger or Ryan Reynolds. (I'm not saying they like to play hard to get, mind you, it's just that this book is REALLY EASY to get, I mean, totally slut-level easy, especially if you have Kindle Unlimited.)

By the way, this book is banned on the planet Alderan. And they've got their reasons. No need to go into that here. Read the book and find out why!

Μιχάλης This is not my book, but it is written by a friend, not sure if it is supposed to go here:
Drakon Book I: The Sieve
description
For free on Amazon from today to February 10.

It is a grimdark historical fantasy novel series of four books (all four are published) about a man who is raised in a barbaric tribe. Book 1 starts with the children being tested in order to cull the weak (and culled they are) in a brutal sieve.

It is a bit on the wordy side, but the overall story is epic and dramatic (and brutally violent too)

Born from the Light, on the evening of the Full Moon, they finally came back after 3300 years. When last seen, the sons of Kala, Arul and Gaia were sent from the Otherworlds to end the reign of the merciless Demon King, Mephistopheles. Since that historical time, a new and deadlier presence has arisen. An archaic demon, Moloch, inherited the powers of his family lineage just before the banishing of his brother by the Great Wizard and Mikhae of the El Dynasty.

Humanity has now come to a crux, and all are spiraling toward complete and utter destruction. It is up to Edward, Gene and Christopher to teach the peoples of the lands and to train warriors in the ways of the gods.

Will the help from their Guardian Watchers, a few allied gods and some invincible weapons be enough to overthrow the countless armies that are terrorizing the people from land to land? Find out. Before it’s too late…

W.L. Wright Hello Book Lovers!

I am an indie author and I have a science fiction novel that was written for YA but adults are enjoying it too.

Teenagers Relaa and Macbeth are surviving alone on a dying earth until they meet each other. Together they succeed on escaping to a new planet. Spaceships have been taking earthlings away so they could survive, or so everyone thought.

Earthlings finally become one unified force but not everyone wants a violent solution though it seems like the only way to turn everything around.

Only $3.99 for the E-book to venture into an alien universe.

Gleneley Hi there.

I've written my first novel UNJU - The Jump which is an interesting take on a possible link between lucid dreams and the multiverse.

The story is set on a Earth-like planet and follows the lives of various characters as they are forced to work for the leaders of their world to try to find a solution to their dying planet.

For a sample of the first chapters please visit www.amazon.com/dp/B07NCB2WS3.

This sci-fi novel follows protagonists Kathrine Slater and her adoptive mother Lila Van Bell.

Lila is married to the only son of Michael Van Bell, the ruler of their world and leader of their version of the UN, a corrupt and communistic organisation that dominates Earth A-0-00-0-01 located somewhere in the multiverse. Lila struggles under the domination of her in-laws but perseveres until she has to protect that which is most dear to her.

Kathrine was identified as only one of two people on their planet with a compatibility to join the Jump Program, which Lila oversees. The little girl is ripped away from her own parents, forced to work for the UN and is ultimately taken in by Lila where after she matures and finds love in the arms of a childhood friend.

While Lila’s story is one of perseverance Kathrine’s is of love and sacrifice.

In a nutshell, multiverse, supreme beings, false creators, corrupt villain, love, sacrifice… etc.

NOVA ACADEMY: HEROES & VILLAINS

Superhero SciFi & Fantasy For Amazon Kindle

Nova Academy: Heroes & Villains

Description:

I'm Theo, a super genius and would be mad scientist. I am starting my first year in the super sciences program at Nova Academy for Advanced Super Human Studies. Their program is the best in the nation and the school is one of the few that allows both heroes and villains to attend. That's important because I really do not know which I want to become after I graduate. It really is a tough choice in the world I live.

There are some surprises in my first year. I meet a girl at college, Carly, and she becomes both my new girlfriend and my partner. She is a powerful telepath who turns my understanding of supers upside down when she tells me the best kept secret in the world.

There is also an insane supervillain who kidnaps and enslaves the science students as part of his diabolical plot. I'm not overly excited about rescuing my fellow science students, but someone has to do it and no one else seems to even know the kids are gone.

To have any chance of success, I will need to make some major upgrades to my armor and recruit a team of supers from the Academy.

I finally made the complete series available through Kindle Unlimited. I decided to entice readers further by making books one and two free 15-17 March. Take a few seconds to download a brutal take on the superhero genre. Examine the clues to discover the main hero's identity. Consider how war is fought when one side believes it to be no more than a game among children and the other recoils at slaughter on a global scale. All this and more is on the pages of the Bystanders series!

Blurb time!


ARIADNE

Never play with madness...

Experimental Company bioship, the CSS Ariadne, has cut all communications and launched herself into hyperspace—heading towards enemy territory and certain destruction if she cannot be stopped.

The crew managed to send out an SOS before the Ariadne disappeared. Someone was murdered… but who?

Vatic, a Skilled empath in the reluctant employ of the Company, is drugged and forced to board the rogue ship. He arrives to find the vessel full of corpses, a small band of suspicious survivors, and no explanations.

Our hero soon realises that not everyone who survived is as they seem. There is an imposter aboard, but who is it, and what are their motives?

Vatic must use all his talents if he and the ship are going to survive.

But survival is what the Skilled do best... isn't it?


Here's a few early reviews:

"Another action-packed novel full of intrigue!"

"A great second book!"

"Another fast paced, whirlwind of a story!"

"full of twists and turns like going down a rabbit hole"


About ARIADNE

What do they say about that difficult second album? It’s all true! At least for this sequel to Vatic!

I wanted to give up on quite a few occasions, but knowing you were out there, waiting patiently, gave me all the impetus I needed to buckle on down and bring the thing to fruition.

Book two, has been a hard, convoluted slog, but I’m very happy with the finished result.

I really hope you like it as much as I do.

If you've not read book one, Vatic, it is available everywhere. Amazon: http://smarturl.it/vatic - in all formats (including audiobook - read by the fantastic James Highfield).

All the very best,

Kev

W.L. Wright Hello Science Fiction fans. I just released Iolon Star yesterday on Amazon. As a science fiction fan myself I wanted this novel to have everything that science fiction fans appreciate most.

Journey into a planetary system farther away then will ever be discovered by anyone on earth. Sallo is a Rektarian living on the planet Rektar. He is working on an invention he hopes will win his way into lavish living on SRX-99, a third moon to Rektar.

When he comes home he finds his 512 robot missing and his invention destroyed. Sallo thinks its sabotage but no one knows machines are conscious. Machines are tired of being discarded before their time and no one wants to go to the graveyard anymore. Rektarians love their machines, especially the new models.

Sallo tries to find a solution while geniuses on SRX-99 try to come up with their own plan to turn off all the machines. The security force on Rektar has its own ideas as the machines turn against them all.

Shiulie Ghosh Hello there, book 2 in my Hindu gods-and-demons YA series has just been released, it's called Daughter of Kali: Unholy Alliance and picks up from where my first book, Daughter of Kali: Awakening left off.

Universal link here to Amazon wherever you are - mybook.to/unholyalliance

It's a story full of diverse characters and incorporating some of the Hindu gods and mythology I grew up with (my Bengali grandma would be so proud!!)

It essentially follows a half Indian teenage girl as she navigates life as the only brown kid at school, coming from a single parent family and not exactly academically gifted. Of course that all changes when she discovers she comes from a long line of Warriors dating back to Kali herself, sworn to protect humans from demon-kind. My character, Kaz Deva has been described as a 'heroine for our times' by reviewers.

Available at a special launch price of 99p or $1.29 until April 15th. I'd love feedback from anyone who read book 1 Awakening or won it in the giveaway last September.

Flesh-eating dust mites, Internet Witches, murderous robots, giant scorpions, Biblical demons and sophisticated cannibals – these horrors and more inhabit the future ruins of the United States in the new novel, APOCALYPSE AMERICA! by Michael McCarty and Mark McLaughlin.

Following a devastating nuclear war, America is thrown into chaos. Malevolent Internet Witches use their monstrous cyber-magic to attack the country through its computers. The last hope for humanity rests with Cain, a post-apocalyptic nomad who is determined to find a legendary paradise known as Eden. Cain is joined on his trek by new friends: Galileo, a surgically enhanced rabbit with a human mind; a brilliant robot named RT-Fax; and Miranda, a downloaded Internet Witch who has discovered the joys of being human.

The group is pursued on their journey by the Shadow Man, the demon Legion, and various minions of the Internet Witches. The friends travel across America in search of Eden, and learn that the country has become a dizzying patchwork of bizarre compounds, whose inhabitants are desperate, dangerous, and sometimes, not even human.

Cain and his friends also learn more about why America is hovering on the brink of ruin. Before long, they have reason to believe they can repair the damage and restore the country to its former glory. Can they access the secrets of Eden and save the Earth, before all living things are destroyed?

McCarty’s books include LOST GIRL OF THE LAKE (coauthored by Joe McKinney), CONVERSATIONS WITH KRESKIN, and MODERN MYTHMAKERS: 35 INTERVIEWS WITH HORROR AND SCIENCE FICTION WRITERS AND FILMMAKERS.

McLaughin’s latest paperback releases are EMPRESS OF THE LIVING DEAD: 25 TALES OF HORROR & THE BIZARRE, and the Lovecraftian story collections, HORRORS & ABOMINATIONS: 24 TALES OF THE CTHULHU MYTHOS and THE HOUSE OF THE OCELOT & MORE LOVECRAFTIAN NIGHTMARES, both coauthored by Michael Sheehan, Jr.

This is my first ever sciFi book, of the space opera genre:

The Hakka War (Galactic Ascent Book 1)

The "Look Inside" feature will allow you to read the first fifty or so pages before you commit to a purchase.

Humans have finally developed the technology needed to travel to the stars.
But as the exploration and colonization of new star systems is taking its toll on the economy, warships and planet defense are deemed too costly. Governments have been too busy competing with one another on colonizing new planets, and have cut their defense budgets, leaving worlds mostly undefended should the need arise.
This is when the Hakka, a species as ruthless as they are powerful, decide to strike.


The book is on amazon kindle on all 13 current sites. The US version is:

Alex Doiron The Changeling and the Hound

This is my new novel. It is urban fantasy with a Canadian setting. The blurb is below, followed by links to where you can download it from Amazon. The "look inside" feature will allow you to read the first couple chapters before you have to buy it.

Dying is easy. Coming back from the dead, that’s the complicated part. Rebecca is a translator for a secret division of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police that is tasked with controlling supernatural threats. She fights against creatures whose very existence is supposed to be nothing but mythology, while dealing with an identity crisis caused by her death and rebirth at the call of the hunter’s horn. A call she answered as a hound of the wild host.

Rebecca is torn by her attraction to two different men, an RCMP sergeant whose job it is to protect her and a Fey noble who rides with the host. While she tries to navigate her feelings for these diametrically opposed men a sick little girl, who isn’t human, gets kidnapped. This plunges Rebecca into a rescue mission that takes her on a journey to the darkest corners of the supernatural world.

Matthew Summers Hello everyone. :) I'm new here and still getting my feet wet (some of these chat threads are REALLY long!), but I'm looking forward to getting to know y'all better and get some good books on my kindle. :)

But I wouldn't be posting here if I wasn't posting about a novel, now would I? I am a new Author, just released my first book this month. The book is titled "The Draconic Pipeline" and can be found right here on Goodreads.

The Draconic Pipeline

To tell you a little about the book, it's a combination of corporate dystopian sci-fi melded with a fantasy setting. From the blurb:

Wake, eat, work, return, eat, sleep. Day in and day out, all day every day, without fail… Such is the life of a Pipeline Worker, and this was the life of Mark Smith. Until the day it wasn't.

When a Worker's death opens up a literal new world for Mark, he finds that his own existence is not all that he once knew it to be. When forced to admit the truth, he realizes he is faced with life-changing decisions in both worlds… but one wrong move in either could end his trips between worlds and the lives of everyone he knows.


It can be found on Amazon (both Kindle and paperback) as well as most other book carriers out there.

Adam Kveton Hi everyone!
I'm brand new to Goodreads, as well as a brand-new author. Like everyone else, I'm doing my best to get my book out in front of the eyes of readers who might be into it: near-future sci-fi with a strong female lead about people who skydive from space.

Here's a quick primer:
You know that feeling when you're on the edge of a cliff, and you get the urge to jump? There are people who do that all the time, over and over, and from greater heights than any cliff could take them. They are called leapers. They drop from the edge of space, from so high that the fall starts to feel like flying.
There's a girl who wants nothing more than to join their ranks in the farthest reaches of the sky. She'll do anything to be a leaper — to join the industry that saved humanity from a self-made ruin. But it turns out that getting the job isn't the hardest part. Neither dreams nor nightmares prepared her for the places she’ll go, and the choices she’ll have to make.

If you want to check it out, here's a link :)

“From the opposite side (maybe) of the Carlos Castaneda coin ('fact' that was really fiction), this entertaining drama could almost double as a how-to for developing psychic powers (remote viewing, telepathy) and a meditation practice.”

BEST BOOK I’VE READ all year. Bravo.”

“Well done, sir, well done. You’ve written a really good story that’s gotten me thinking about how we view the world.”

“Super Human is a unique version of what it could look like to have a superpower in the real world. The characters are well developed, relatable and yet flawed in their own ways.”

Warwick Gleeson "Piper Robbin and the American Oz Maker"
Warwick Gleeson
Dark and High Fantasy - Adult

Good to be here in the SFF group. Thanks for making this forum available. The weather in Seattle is fantastic this month (for the most part).

The publisher's note re the novel:

"Upon this 80th anniversary of the Wizard of Oz, PIPER ROBBIN AND THE AMERICAN OZ MAKER will officially join the “heretical apocrypha of Oz.” In other words, a work of imaginative fiction borrowing heavily from Oz, but not subject to the confines and strictures of Oz canon. This dark and epic science-fantasy by Warwick Gleeson features three of the most protean and uniquely flawed heroes ever forged in 21st century speculative fiction, and too, a villain that makes Voldemort look like Tinkerbell."

Yes, making the big V look like T sounds like stretch, but this particular duality of the antagonist as both omnipotent Witch Queen and sociopath therapist from California provides an edge that YA material might find a challenge to reproduce. Regardless, it's art (hopefully) and no one opinion rules.

Thank you.
