[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

For those who might be interested, here is my promo blurb:

First Contact.

It's 2042 and aliens have made contact with Earth. Marine Colonel Kyle Martin has been tasked with providing security for the signing of the treaty that will move mankind from lurking in isolation and ignorance and propel them out into the stars.

But another race of aliens has a different agenda for this meeting. Kyle and his Marines are caught in a firefight that leads them into a war against a savage and warlike race. With no allies and utterly outmatched in technology, how will Earth dare fight back? With skill, brains, and a will to survive.

As their foes ready the shackles of oppression, Kyle and his team race to harness every resource they have and a secret about Earth itself may hold the decisive key to victory.

Congratulations, and best wishes for success. I’m afraid I don’t have Kindle, but maybe I can work something out with one of my kids who do.

Congrats and kudos.

Sounds like a plot I’d enjoy. I have 16 sf/fantasy on the shelves; if I like it I’ll give you a blurb.

We’ll forgive the vanity so long as you kick in some of the first day profits to Jim. ;)

Congratulations! I’ll be sure to nitpick all that stuff that you didn’t find in editing. :)

[the invisib1e hand]

Great! Just what the world needs - another book.

just kidding - congratulations!

[momtothree]

Congratulations!! The plot sounds fascinating.... in fact, it sounds great enough to be made into a movie (hope that isn’t insulting to an author?!)

By the by, another author in the Kindle Store is selling books under the name Wilson Harp - those aren’t your books as well, are they?

[WWTraveler]

I will buy it tomorrow. Sounds great.

[JRandomFreeper]

Oh... Forgot... Congrats. I look forward to reading it. If it's crap, expect to catch heck. ;)

Do you have a free chapter or 2 to sample?

Is there a lot of gratuitous sex and violence ?

Geoffrey Chaucer writes Robert Heinlein...

...if done well a work of gifted literature.

I’m sanguine.

A sci fi thread seems like a good place to stick this afternoon's creation.

[Mountain Mary]

WOW, ASB. You have a right to a vanity post. Kudos and may you have continuing success with more writing in the future.
