Hilariously gripping Sci-Fi debut

Buckle up for a trip to the distant future and a life and death space race in the Kindle Book Review’s Best Indie Books of 2012 SEMIFINALIST, Bypass Gemini by Joseph Lallo; an Amazon and Goodreads average rating of 4.7 stars.

A Little About Bypass Gemini:

Just when you think you’ve hit rock bottom…

Trevor “Lex” Alexander had it all – a celebrity career as one of the galaxy’s greatest race pilots and all the glitz and glamour that goes with it…until his ties with the mob get him tossed from the racing world and send him spiraling to society’s dregs.  Reduced to nothing more than a nickel and dime currier, when he’s not toting the occasional “questionable” parcel, Lex seems to be coming to terms with his new lot in life…until a mysterious woman sends him on what could be his last delivery.

Epic Potential in Gavin’s Debut

Settle in for a supernatural original in The Darkening Dream by Andy Gavin; an Amazon  average rating of 4.3 stars.

The supernatural just got ridiculous

An alien invasion force realizes its worst nightmare when supernatural pop culture runs amuck on Earth  in Alien Invasion of the Zombie Apocalypse by Ford Forkum; an Amazon and Goodreads average rating of 4.6 stars.

A Little About Alien Invasion of the Zombie Apocalypse - A short story loaded with laughs, the perfect break from paranormal…

An alien race with far more sophisticated science and intelligence (debatable) has forever altered the future of Earth with the spin of a wheel and a quick trip across the galaxy.  What they find are our most popular paranormal icons running amuck causing mayhem and murder…not what the Zyrplexians had in mind (nice scientific superiority).  It’s beginning to end laughs in Forkum’s short story.
