Mutant Beast Hunter by William Dickey

About Mutant Beast Hunter by William Dickey:

Free 1/11/23 to 1/15/23

It began with what was to be the cure to all of life’s ails, a bio-engineered virus that could reprogram the DNA of any living cell. The virus cured cancer and all variety of genetic conditions, created super crops that ended famine, and caused trees to literally grow into buildings. It was the beginning of a new era where anything and everything was possible. But then, the virus got loose. It radically and continually mutated all life on Earth. Animals and plants got stronger and smarter; some developed abilities beyond explanation. The advantages of technology faded. Humans became easy prey and retreated into a handful of walled cities.
That was a hundred years ago and not much has improved since. Humanity remains cloistered and surrounded by deadly threats. Only one thing keeps them from complete annihilation, the hunters. Only the hunters dare to venture out and gather resources the cities need to survive. Only the hunters dare to keep the mutant beasts at bay. Follow Lucas, a young aspiring hunter from Manhattan, as he learns the tricks of the trade, faces a myriad of deadly beasts, and discovers that the greatest threat to his home isn’t from outside the walls but from within.

Hot Love Inferno: A Series & Standalone of Sci-Fi Comedy (Prophecy Allocation Book 2)

About Hot Love Inferno: A Series & Standalone of Sci-Fi Comedy (Prophecy Allocation Book 2):

Sometimes in life, a multidimensional Basset Hound is the only friend you need…
”Read it in one sitting and couldn’t stop laughing. Gag a minute. Dark comedy at it’s finest!” (Goodreads review)

(This book is the second in the Prophecy Allocation series but works fine as a standalone read. Get the first of the series for free at www.nickyblue.com/freebie )

Perfect reading for fans of Tom Holt, Terry Pratchett, Robert Rankin, Christopher Moore or Douglas Adams.

Why you should read this book:

It explains revolutionary insights into the nature of reality that debunk the myth of free will (probably).
It proves the multiverse has only two parallel universes (depending on your criteria for what makes up proof).
It contains 50% extra innuendo-based gags than Book One in the series. Some of them might be considered funny (again this is relative).
The author achieved a heightened dynamic tension not found in other books. He was heavily constipated during its creation. There may be a link. The author is no way suggesting that this makes it better than every other book ever written.

Warning: The book is written in British English. All British slang terms are helpfully translated for the international reader, along with a short explanation of why British people are a little strange.

What the reviews are saying

“Quirky, original, brilliant – a must-read!”
“A mind-bending, absurdist blast of comedy and action”
“Had me in stitches . Highly recommend!”
” Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy meets Pride and Prejudice and Zombies ”
“The author’s ability to write characters that are believable, different, and set in situations that are far from the ordinary, is remarkable.”
“If you get the chance to read it, please do. I gotta read more now!”
“A funny and intriguing book!”
“I highly recommend this to anyone who loves dark humour ”
” It’s the perfect mix of dark comedy + bizarre fantasy and is unlike any book I’ve read before. I laughed out loud multiple times and enjoyed the roller-coaster read. 5/5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

Departing: A Romantic Sci-Fi Adventure

About Departing: A Romantic Sci-Fi Adventure:

I thought dying in prison was my only option…
…then I was given a choice.

I can either board an alien spaceship with 400 fellow criminals or rot in prison on a freezing Earth.

The spacecraft’s captain, a handsome alien who looks remarkably human, has been visiting me in my dreams for over a year. He has given me the companionship I need during my time locked up in solitary confinement, and the way he holds me in my mind makes me forget the Earth is on the brink of extinction.

But was that nothing but my imagination? The alien in question doesn’t seem to know anything about the hours we spent together.

Humanity will be wiped out soon, and despite all of this, if I get on that ship, I have a chance at surviving.

And I’m a survivor.

Only a deadly disease is spreading among the aliens and has already killed the majority of their population. It appears to be a virus, but as the aliens continue dying despite all precautions, I begin to wonder if the disease is something else.

How do I keep the man I’ve fallen in love with safe? (Even if he has no idea who I am?)

And if he dies, along with the rest of his alien race, how will us humans navigate the unfamiliar solar systems in a spaceship we don’t know how to operate?

But if the disease spreads to the humans on board, none of this will even matter.

Memory Island

About Memory Island:

David is a young man who finds himself on an island in the middle of the ocean. He doesn’t remember how he got there and, through various encounters with people and events, finally realizes the island is in fact a dimensional bubble insulated from Time and Space. Most of what he sees comes directly from his subconscious, and his conscience is eventually led to the understanding of his life purpose: stopping the spreading of the Communitrons before they take all human consciousness. The Communitrons are machines that feed off the minds of their human pilots (Communauts), evolving into sentient Homo Machinas and leaving the humans as empty shells or brainless humanoids.

David manages to leave the island and returns to his time with the aid of Adam, a commonaut, and takes back his role as a futuristic version of Red Cross Official. The world in which David has returned is a huge radioactive wasteland where a few fortified Megalopolis contain the remnants of a technological human society slowly dying.
While on a rescuing mission in the wasteland David meets a special woman, Lucy, who holds the keys to understand the Island, the Communitrons, and the future of human civilization.

Through a mind-triggered, dimensional warp-hole David meets with the scientist who devised the plan who is destroying humanity.

Lucy is the Alpha Mater, the ultimate experiment of the Professor, the first Communitron who evolved taking the mind, the shape and the emotions of a human being. There is only one way to break the seemingly endless spiral of the Communitrons outspread, and that is a sacrifice that David is not willing to accept.
