Congratulations to Steven M. Moore

Congratulations to author Steven M. Moore on a great review of his science fiction book, Survivors of the Chaos.

Civilization passes through a social singularity. The U.S. and E.U. break apart. China collapses. Companies consolidate and expand around Earth and to the far reaches of the solar system, becoming the glue that prevents anarchy as they contract mercenaries to brutally maintain order and ensure profits.

Three reluctant heroes rise above this Chaos. A mild Midwest rancher becomes a vengeful vigilante in the Big Apple; an aging astrophysicist struggles to save alien artifacts found on one of Saturn’s moons; and a tired and reluctant mob enforcer finds a new life aboard a starship on its way to 82 Eridani.

Pulitzer-nominated reviewer David W. Menefee of Bookpleasures.com says of the book, “Readers steeped in current literature will appreciate the brevity of scenes that burst in front of you with a blinding flash of startling detail and then exit as quickly as a comet streaking through the night sky.” You can read the whole review here.

Survivors of the Chaos is available from Amazon US, Amazon UK, and Barnes & Noble.


Taking the Plunge and Writing for a YA Audience

I’ve been writing since my teens; more years than I care to count; and, even as a teenager, what I wrote was aimed at an adult audience.

Sneak Peek: UPGRADE

Upgrade
by Stephen Hise

What does the man who has almost everything want? Brilliant, self-made multi-millionaire Brent Schoenfeld yearns to be attractive. He’s tired of his solitary existence which he blames on his bland appearance. He wants women to want him. Skeptical but verging on desperate, he undergoes a mysterious procedure which promises to transform him into the object of every woman’s desire: a decision that will change his life forever. One million dollars later, Brent sees no difference in his outward appearance. Yet beautiful women are fawning over him and even competing for his attention. After decades of self-loathing, the temptation for physical validation is too great, and Brent begins a sexual juggling act with cataclysmic consequences. Beware your heart’s desire.

Upgrade is currently ranked #1 on the Goodreads Listopia List for Best Well-Written Sexy Books (Sexy without being raunchy, good plots, characters you will like). Available for all eBook formats from Smashwords and in print or Kindle editions from Amazon US and Amazon UK.
