#76-Other Worldly Tales #3

Knighthawke-NEW-WEB-ICONKNIGHTHAWKE--VS-NEW-WEB-ICOWe’ve been looking at tales where the setting is an “other worldly” one.  But, what if our main character is “other worldly” and set in our modern day world.  We take a look at such a character today known as “Knighthawke”.  Author Jerry Minchew created Knighthawke as the main character for the book bearing his name and the sequel, Knighthawke: Vanishing Shadows.  Michael is an ordinary young man with ordinary aspirations who is caught in an unbelievable set of events which make him over into an “other-worldly” character.  Take a listen to some samples in today’s podcast!

#75-Other Worldly Tales #2

Cover-AudioOur look into tales of other worlds – even just altered earths – continues today with an in-depth look at The Destined.  This is a tale of evil powers which arise every 700 years or so and threaten earth.  To counter this threat, others are imbued with gifts to fight this evil and set things right again.  This story tells the story of a High School Teacher and a few teens who have been imbued with this power.  The question is, will they know how to use it to save the planet from total annihilation.  It’s a such a fast moving action-adventure-other worldly tale that it’s hard to stop listening.

#73-Of Science & Science Fiction

Amazon coverI’m in the midst of narration and production of the latest science fiction novel by Michael Miller, Second Earth, M-104. This is the third in a series of books about an alien who wishes to destroy earth and the scientists who are battling to keep earth alive.  This battle takes a lot of technology – some of it “other worldly”.  Michael takes the time to share some of this technology with us and how he thinks it might work.

I share Michael Millera sample from the book as well as the author’s comments about writing in this genre and the research which goes into the writing of this exciting book.
