Download or read book A Fairy of Anneliese Glade written by Michael A. Gibbs and published by Virtualbookworm Publishing. This book was released on 2004-06 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A Fairy of Anneliese Glade" is the title of one of twenty-eight fantasy, ghost, and science fiction stories created for the thinking reader or anyone whose thoughts have wandered beyond the limits of perceived reality. Into these stories have gone unending hours of research, imaginings, and mental pictures drawn from the author's experience and expertise. Here are the trials, adventures, and mistakes of fictional characters whose breath of life is as believable as their situations. Although the stories share the common aspect of deviation from the norm, each is different in setting, conflict, and emotion. Pre-Colonial America becomes as real in these pages as do the inhabitants of alien worlds and present-day spirits. Each story's basis (whether history, legend, or technology) was carefully researched and dissected to produce an unexpected realism to the characters and their environs. An achievement resulting from years of experience and study, "A Fairy of Anneliese Glade" is a "must read" for those of us who have a slightly tilted view of what is, what was, and what might be.

Download or read book Resonance written by Chris Dolley and published by Book View Cafe. This book was released on 2005-11-05 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I have read a lot of science fiction and have gone through tons of plots, so when I find one that is unique I certainly take notice. Resonance is one of those books that has it all. Interesting plot with plenty of mysteries and twists, characters you care about, and solid writing that strings it all together." -- Jeffrey Miller Graham Smith is a 33 year old office messenger. To the outside world he's an obsessive compulsive mute - weird but harmless. But to Graham Smith, it's the world that's weird. And far from harmless. He sees things other can't...or won't. He knows that roads can change course, people disappear, office blocks migrate across town - all at night when no one's looking. Only by following a rigid routine can he lessen these effects. If he walks the same route to work every morning and catches the same train, and keeps himself to himself, then there's a good chance his house will still be where he left it when he returns home in the evening. Then he meets Annalise Mercado. Annalise Mercado hears voices. Sometimes she thinks they're spirit guides, sometimes she thinks she's crazy. But then they start telling her about Graham Smith, the danger he's in, and how only she can save him. So begins the story of two people whose lives appear fragmented across alternate realities. And how, together, they hold the key to the future of a billion planets... REVIEWS: "Resonance is a tremendously accomplished book ... and immediately raises Dolley into the ranks of writers to watch. It's a head-over-heels romp through ever-changing realities, crammed with great set-pieces, excellent hooks and some nice one-liners." -- Keith Brooke, Infinity Plus "This is one of the most original new science fiction books I have ever read. In fact, as an inspired new take on a familiar SF idea it's original enough to stand comparison with "The Time Traveler's Wife" or "Memoirs of an Invisible Man. If it is as big a hit as it deserves, it may well be this book which becomes the standard by which SF stories about ... are judged." -- Marshall Lord "...you get carried along thinking the story is going one way and off it veers in another direction. I don't know about you but I like being surprised by a story. I enjoy having an author keep me interested in the story and caring about the characters. Dolley does a great job of pulling all the elements together to keep you reading. Highly recommended." -- Gayle Surrette, SFRevu "An exceptional first novel." -- Robert M. Tilendis, Rambles "RESONANCE is outstanding, creating unique, believable protagonists and compelling readers to follow along in an outstanding adventure."-- Midwest Book Review "I loved Resonance ... the writing is clever, the concepts are ingenious, and the characterizations are first class. Both Graham Smith and Annalise Mercado stick with you as people long after the book is finished. And with all the stories I read, that is amazing." -- Jerry Wright, Bewildering Stories
