    Tony Valdez liked an update for Disintegration

    Here’s a little excerpt of what I’m editing, with its not to Arthur C. Clarke.

    ***

     Rene sat himself at another console and ran his hands blindly over the controls with accuracy borne of countless repetition.  “So, I hear you’re an engineer.”

    Daedalus shrugged.

    “We definitely need someone like you.”

    “It seems like you need a lot of things, here.”

    “Alors.” Rene screwed up his mouth. “I don’t even know what I’m looking for here. And I wouldn’t trust this shit to find it for me, anyway.”

    He punched up the surveillance from the corridor where Sargas escaped his cell.

    “Look at this,” he called to Daedalus, who brought his attention to the scene of Sargas stepping out of the cell only to be bombarded by weapons fire.

    “Wow,” Daedalus remarked as he watched the energy blasts fail to cause any damage. “What do you suppose that is?”

    “Looks like he’s got some kind of force field … some kind of disparate energy that negates our weapons. But he’s got no tech on him … I mean, he’s naked. Unless it’s up his ass or something.”

    Rene was not far off, although the technology wasn’t located in only one place within Sargas’ body. The Von Neumann nanomachines in his blood self-replicated and could be secreted through his pores, coating his skin, then activated via nervous response to act as fractal camouflage that effectively rendered him invisible.

    “Some kind of massive kinetic discharge is all I can guess,” Rene continued. “EM interference. I don’t know. That … or magic.”

    “Psh… Magic,” Daedalus scoffed.

    “What’s the difference, really?" asked Rene. "Like telepathy is easier to get your head around? It’s all magic; it’s all incomprehensible shit that defies explanation. The word is just the catch-all for ‘I don’t know how the fuck he did it—’ Holy shit! Look!” Rene pointed at the screen as Sargas metamorphosed into the fierce, naked alien creature.

    “How do you suppose he did that?” asked Daedalus.

    Rene shrugged. “Je ne sais pas. Maybe some kind of camouflage that let’s him project different appearances.” Again, his inference was correct; the nanomachines could also transmit a holographic image of whatever the host desired to project.

    “Do you know who that is?” Daedalus asked.

    “It’s the same guy as before, just … different.”

    “No. That ... whatever it is … looks just like Darek Marseh.”

    “The red Emperor …” Rene said, unconvinced. “You think he’s masquerading as a, uh, well-hung human male?”

    “All I know is that thing looks like every representation of Marseh I’ve ever seen or heard of. The drawings, the word-of-mouth accounts.”

    Rene sighed and got up from the console. “So, what now?” 

    Daedalus asked. “Let’s go find His Royal Highness.”

      Tony Valdez liked an update for Tantalus Depths

      Lore Update:

      While most of the Colonial Hegemony’s more successful colonization efforts have taken place in humanity’s native solar system, such as on Mars, Luna, and Europa, they have also had some significant success colonizing worlds many lightyears away. While these worlds do not appear directly within the pages of Tantalus Depths, they may hold pieces of a puzzle eons in the making...a mystery that lies deep within the depths of Tantalus 13...




      Would you like to be immortalized in the Colonial Hegemony’s charters? At the end of Tantalus Depths’ campaign, whoever refers the most people who place pre-orders will have an exoplanet named after them. You can be a part of this cosmic mystery. Don’t miss out.

        Tony Valdez liked an update for Rise

        Rise received its first industry review!  It was posted on Monday, but I just found out about it today.

        "Science fiction makes "Their world exploded" literal in this ensnaring SF mystery set on various fragments ("shells") of a shattered planet that still orbit around its glowing core. Set up by the Ancients, the shells host colonies of humans who depend upon the infallible technology of their ancestors to survive. But it is starting to fail, and Logwyn, a scribe, is sent by her dragon queen to interview four outsiders from different shells and cultures to piece together why. Armed only with a box whose contents she has not dared to view, Logwyn tries to draw the others out and gather up their separate but linked accounts, hoping to understand why the Ancient computers are losing data. Guthrie neatly if straightforwardly weaves together the four stories, letting events repeat without contradiction (no Rashomon here); his worldbuilding is complicated enough, including the characters’ ability to rewrite the "code" of reality, to require some simplicity of plot. Raising more questions with every answer, this volume should intrigue readers enough to look for the sequel."   Publishers Weekly

        So exciting.  In other news, Inkshares is working hard with Amazon and Barnes and Noble to get the kinks in the release worked out.  Rest assured if you have friends that want to order from these two sites, they still can, especially if they’re after the Kindle version.  They can also go in to a Barnes and Noble store and order a copy there if it’s not already on the shelves. (I can’t believe I get to say that now!!)

        Don’t forget to leave your own reviews and ratings on Goodreads and on the kindle version on Amazon.  And I’m still looking for some unique pictures of where people are reading Rise.
         
        Check out who got his copy reserved!
