Produktbeschreibung

Frankly, I'm a blunt guy.
Some even call me a curmudgeon.
Whatever the hell that is.

In my world, the twenty-fourth century, things rarely happen like they're supposed to. Like running into devious booby-traps or predatory alien parasites. Here, for better or worse, global government is a fact, lunar mining a reality, alien contact and conflict a commonplace, and where brokered certified mercenaries fill the societal role of "extraordinary facilitators."

I, Ian Gregory, am a former United Earth Force Marine master sergeant and certified second-class mercenary. On my honorable discharge, I took a flyer with a corporate outfit and succeeded hugely. First, I got a gene splice, then gained the ability to mind speak. Those abilities catapulted me into a series of adventures that included navigating a Super Raptor interceptor. I finally ended up with a promotion as a U.N.-Geneva ambassadorto an alien planet. Yeah, things rarely happen like they're supposed to.

This volume is the second of a new sci-fi fiction series. For those not familiar with my others, peek inside and find others that include time travel, paranormal archaeology, and age-old rivalries between occult societies.

Autorenporträt

W.J. Cherf has always wanted to write a book without footnotes, to tell a fascinating tale that is so real that his avid readers are left puzzled over what was real and what was Memorex. To craft such a tale takes wit, a love of science fiction, and above all a deep reverence for ancient history and archaeology. All of these qualities are stitched together beautifully in his books, because Cherf has been there, dug that. He's even seen the sun rise from atop the Great Pyramid.
Reviews have been generous:
"Bow Tie: Two Thumbs Up"
"Imagine a dinner party thrown by Tom Clancy, where he sits EE "Doc" Smith next to HG Wells"
"Amazing story, fascinating detail, a fabulous read"
"Cherf has done a wonderful job combining facts from Egyptian history and a fictional story to create a compelling trilogy of intrigue and espionage"
"What an enjoyable experience reading this series!"
With a BA in Anthropology, MA in Egyptian Archaeology, and Ph.D. in Ancient History, Cherf remains current as an elected officer of Denver's Egyptian Studies Society and is a member of a national service organization called SERTOMA, SERvice TO MANkind, that is devoted to hearing disabilities. Living with his beloved wife Sue, they keep Foxbat 1 out in the garage. They enjoy golf, road racing (that's where Foxbat comes in), and cheering for the Cubs and Chicago Bears.
