Produktbeschreibung

Awarded the "Seal of Excellence" in Oct 2012, by indiePENdents.org

Posted online (June 2nd, 2018) by a reader in the USA - Just read the first story and dang its friggin brilliant. I totally love how the story is written (especially the spirit photography). Though it's not scary at all but its clearly lot better than twilight and other retarded stories. No wonder why its award-winning book. Great job writing good stuff.

Dear Alan, I have just finished reading The Chronicles of Mark Johnson from cover to cover (you are an excellent storyteller, and I didn't want to put it down once I had started) from Julia Petrakis, Seattle.

From Crystall Schall- Al Place writes many different genres, Chronicles of Mark Johnson is definitely one of his short story compilations to date. This is definitely a do not miss read.

From Yezall Strongheart, author of Restore- Bring 'em' back alive. These stories have been recently polished and the book was given a new face. It finally captures the imagination of Al Place perfectly. Well executed and written, these spine-tingling stories will keep you awake at night. In his noir style, Al Place brings these stories to life and although they are short, they are memorable! The richly imagined character Mark Johnson jumps from the page, as does the other fully fleshed out characters, in such a way that you feel you are there. Nicely done "creep factor" keeps you turning the pages. All around good collection. With this author's talent at telling a story, I can only hope for a novel at some point. If anything that would be my complaint, I wanted more.

From Lisa Lane, author of Finding Poe Although the stories are highly dialog-driven, which is typically a turn-off for me, they contain patches of lovely prose and the characters are interesting and likable. The short stories come together to create a cohesive plot, which I liked. Given the author's stylistic approach and how the stories read, I would love to see him try his hand at play writing and/or screenwriting, for which I feel he would be well-suited.

From Fran Lewis in New York This is a well-written story filled with just the right amount of suspense, drama and intrigue to keep the reader's interest and ready for the next story. Let's find out what Mark is up to next as I begin story two: The Porthern Case by author Alan Place. Just as this ends and what is next for Mark and his team you won't know until the author continues the amazing Chronicles of Mark Johnson. Only author PA Canella knows what's next; and of course THE SPIRITS!

Autorenporträt

I have wanted to be a writer since I learned to read. My reading ability was always at the top of the class and this developed into the talent for storytelling.

In 2011 an injury to my left leg left me disabled and I finally got the opportunity to try to write. The first stories I had published were in a US available only anthology.

The Ghost of St. Mary's and The Rocking Lantern were not only the first published, but the first I wrote. Later that year, I had Old Church Ghosts published on line in the UK. The original version is only availlable in the Special Edition version.

I made my on line reputation for ghost stories, but I also write for the children's charity books by The Peacock Writers.

In 2012, my book Chronicles of Mark Johnson won an award for excellence from the US on line magazine indiePENdents.org. Both this book, and its sequel Wharfemere Finale had rave reviews from New York reviewer, Fran Lewis.

In recent times, my US hit series Forgestriker has sold over 350 e-books in the seven books series, and earned me a reputation for writing sci-fi in the USA.
