Description:

Over one thousand years ago, an alien fleet locked the Antyran star system inside a weird space distortion. Now it is time to find their secrets.

On a beautiful summer morning some 1,250 years before the start of our story, the fleet of an advanced civilization arrived on the Antyran home planet. It wasn’t a pleasant encounter - at least not for the Antyrans, because the aliens burned their ice cities to the ground and locked the whole star system inside a space distortion that held them captive ever since, hiding the stars. After such an awesome display of destruction, they went back to where they came, but not before investing an Antyran, called Baila I, as the ruler of the world.Despite the constant barriers imposed by the long string of Bailas, and the ever-hotter wall of fire created by the light of the star trapped in the distortion field, the Antyrans progressed. After they developed their first fusion engines, they built colonies on the other two planets inside the distortion.And then, on another beautiful day, the discovery of a few fragments from an ancient spaceship buried in a ravine on one of the recently colonized worlds will open up the chest of madness.Gillabrian, or Gill, as friends use to call him, is an Antyran archaeologist. After stumbling upon the terrible secrets of the alien visitors, he finds himself in the unenviable position of being hunted on all the Antyran worlds, and not only there. The path laid before Gill forces him to change, to discover that he has the strength to overcome his fears and make the right choices even against overwhelming odds. But beyond that, he is compelled to explore the meaning of being alive, to glimpse the fine line between life and death, and find how technology would eventually blur their boundary. Being thrown in the river of madness, he will reach the point where any choice is a bad choice, when defeating a foe could open the path for an even greater evil, when the light at the end of the tunnel is the hideous grin of a technological singularity bent on assimilating everything, its tentacles as long as the Universe. Will our hero prevail and find a way to keep the secrets of the Sigian Bracelet?The novel is an action-packed space opera with plenty of space battles, adventures, and virtual fights taking place in ancient times—the players being Antyrans connected to a virtual world of game islands floating in the sky of a giant planet. Being a perfectionist, it took George Tome some twenty years to create the Antyran world, the last ten of which spent on the fifth (and final) iteration.The novel was officially released in 22 Dec 2017 with a FREE Promotion on Amazon.

"If I could be half the person my dog is, I’d be twice thehuman I am." — Charles Yu

Moving on from the trauma of combat in Afghanistan, former Green Beret Captain Sam Dale has just begun to settle down in his hometown of Castle Rock, Colorado. Now the owner of several small businesses, he is unaware that his world is about to be turned upside down. The call comes in at 2:30 a.m. The skies outside have opened up, unleashing a torrential rainstorm. Sam’s small towing company is being tasked with the retrieval of some kind of crashed aircraft.At the site and up close, Sam soon suspects this is no ordinary aircraft. Could it be…some kind of small alien ship? And that’s when Sam comes face-to-face with the pilot—one who goes by the name of Cypress.Sam will soon learn that a massive fleet of warships has recently jumped into the solar system, originating from the planet Naru. Soon, the initial stages of terra-displacement will ensue—the ravishing of Earth’s natural resources and genocide of the human populace. Sam and Cypress discover their goals are more aligned than expected—deciding to work together, albeit reluctantly. First up, they must recruit an army of local townsfolk. Unfortunately, too few of them are only marginally acceptable. Others are downright misfits. While it is time to defend a now totally isolated Castle Rock, it is also time to play offense and take the battle to the alien fleet up in space. Sam will now have to become the man he has fought so hard to leave in the past. The decorated Green Beret, the one with killer instincts and combat skills like few others.

And so, the epic interstellar saga,

The Fallen Ship

, begins…Reviews:

Hometown Boy Rescues Dog, Tows Spacecraft

I had a blast reading an advance copy of The Fallen Ship. Mark Wayne McGinnis and Kim McGinnis have crafted an imaginative, fast-paced, and utterly satisfying adventure. Where else will you find Harper, a restaurant server, Scott, a two-hearted alien, Cypress, a two-minded talking dog, Julian, a bath-robed genius, and dueling AIs–all of which intersect the life of Sam Dale, a perfectly normal, '66 Mustang-driving, decorated Afghanistan war veteran, retired Green Beret, serial entrepreneur, tow-truck driving good Samaritan? Oh–I almost forgot–there are nanites, cops, and donuts too! ("Donut", incidentally, used as both noun AND verb!) You've got to read this book.-C. Duell

The Fallen Ship / Golden Retrievers Rule!

Yes, they do. Lol. Read the book and relish how pups can be awesome. A little simplistic but then again this is a very good book with well fleshed out characters. An alien is forced to merge with a dog named Rocko. Together with an AI named Gia and an ex-Green Beret named Sam, they take on an alien AI who has taken over the minds of a rampaging alien race, intent on destroying all life on earth. Why? Natural resources earth provides. Fast read and well worth the time.- AC

Great alien invasion science fiction with a twist! Lol!

A funny and military-type alien invasion that's going to be very hard to wait on the next book! I usually don't like waiting on a book series, but this book is sometimes funny, sad, and nonstop action I always expect from Mr. McGinnis! I’ll wait for the next book patiently (not), please keep turning out more military scifi books in this series Lol!- KC

Thrilling Military Science Fiction in a Small Town

I love all of Mark’s books. But this one, The Fallen Ship, might be my favorite. Written with the humor of BV Larson and Craig Alanson, The Fallen Ship is a fun adventure scifi romp that is incredible. Besides this book, I would highly recommend Scrapyard Ship, Ship Wrecked, USS Hamilton, The Hidden Ship and Junket - Untamed Alien Worlds. But, who am I kidding… all of Mark’s books are great.- Simon
