A lone astronomer spies a massive object in space hurtling towards earth at a pace defying the laws of known physics. When word finally gets out to the public, an unrivaled panic clenches the world's leaders - and global chaos unfolds. When Halcyon finally arrives, and it doesn't act as predicted, military, civilian and scientific leaders aboard the International Space Station are left to try and make sense of the aftermath, and the unexplained events unfolding in Halcyon's wake.

Arbra Dale Triplett has been a freelance writer, UFO researcher and journalist - scribbling fiction, advertising, marketing and bad poetry on public bathroom walls for more than a decade. As a military brat he spent most of his youth in Germany, then later served in both the Marine Corps and Air Force. Though originally hailing from the Missouri Ozarks, he and his wife Joni now make their home in Phoenix, Arizona with a mean, fat cat named Langston, and three children that pop in on occasion. Dale is the author of illustrated children's book 'Benjamin Oliver Flanagan' and 'The Halcyon's Wake Chronicles' of which episode I, 'Halcyon's Wake: Faith' is currently available in print and ereader versions. Visit 'The Halcyon's Wake Chronicles' fan page on facebook at https://www.facebook.com/HalcyonsWake, his website at daletriplett.com and follow him on Twitter @DaleTriplett. Look for the second Halcyon's Wake episode, 'Halcyon's Wake: Love' on bookshelves in early to mid 2014.

5,0 su 5 stelle A Wild, Twisted Alien Conspiracy
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 7 ottobre 2016
Acquisto verificato
Amidst juvenile fart jokes, threats of butt hickies, and honest-to-god space sasquatch, I couldn't help but laugh out loud at the epic insanity spewing out of Triplett's brain. Halcyon's Wake is clever, entertaining, and a conspiracy theorists wet dream as Major Zack Dalton rides the wake of the world's greatest disaster, giving his life for what's left of his country-and the world.

Halcyon's protagonists are extremely likable, despite Zack's nonchalant humor that had me laughing throughout the book, Beth is my favorite character. And that's saying something when she's up against a semi-purply glowing, mutant, Marine astronaut, samurai...

Yes, there's that much epic in this book.

I am a sucker for a great female lead. Give me a headstrong woman who can hold her booze and out smart a smart-ass and I am one happy reader. I'm convinced Major Beth Hodgson can take on the Drakos single handedly if she's riled up enough to do so. She's not one to let emotions get in her way, she has a duty to perform and she's going to get it done. I am pretty excited to see her let loose and kick some ass in episode II.

This is definitely a series I will be keeping up with. If you're the type of reader who can sit back and allow an author's imagination to just run with it, then you'll really appreciate The Halcyon's Wake Chronicles. Faith is one wild, twisted tale.

I suppose I owe Dale an apology, which he will dutifully receive once I am able to scrub the traumatizing events of Halcyon's Wake from my delicate mind. He is as cruel as he is comical. Bastard...

Death to the Drakos!

Sci-Fi was never my forte, but I ploughed on regardless, and happily, most of the technical details of space travel, space vehicles, and related 'scientific stuff' was short lived, and a rather complicated, dystopian tale unfolded. Enjoyable, but not the easiest read book I've gone out of my comfort zone with. There are a few strange events that hopefully will be picked up in the 2nd of what is proposed to be a 3 book series, but it's got me drawn in. I'm not going to give away any of the plots, but do give this a try. It has enough twists and turns to keep a reader off balance, and interested.I like the protagonists, who are more your average dweebs and geeks than Superheroes, with a weird sense of humour that gave me a few chuckles.
My only real grouse is the author's overuse of apostrophes, especially in the wrong place, where I got confused until I realised he was meaning plural. For instance, Reptilian's instead of reptilians, friend's instead of friends, etc (If a plural ends in an s, it doesn't need an apostrophe generally speaking). However, as the author gains confidence, and a following of readers, I'm sure this will be ironed out.

I intend to find out what happens next! Why don't YOU give this new Indie author a try!

4,0 su 5 stelle Great Story--Ready for More!

BLUF: I recommend "Halcyon's Wake: Faith" as a fast, entertaining, grab-the-reader-and-never-let-go story.

Dale is a great storyteller. Almost too good, if that's possible.

Let me explain. While it's a necessary talent for writers to use words to generate mental images, Dale's unique ability to do so took me places I didn't necessarily want to go. This was particularly true during the scenes of torture, depravity, and gore that Dale painted in one or two of the latter chapters. I understand Dale's need to paint the antagonists as sickos--that's an important part of the overall narrative--but I would have grasped that concept even with less disturbing prose.

That said, Dale is indeed a great storyteller and he seems to have mastered the art of the cliffhanger book ending. I am anxious to read the continuation of the Halcyon's Wake story.

Get to work, Dale!

I have never had this much fun with a book before. Halcyon’s Wake is insane. OK so have you ever been drinking and things get out of hand? You’re telling a story and some guy across from you starts telling a story that one ups yours. So you tell another, even crazier story. Then the same jerk hits you again with a better one. I’m pretty sure that Dale Triplett was having both of those conversations with himself.

Halcyon starts almost reasonable. Asteroid comes screaming toward Earth. Our planet can’t just dodge it, so there is a modest evacuation, and we are on our way. He has a technically sound knowledge of how modern space shuttles work, so you settle into a comfortable stride and you are moving along just fine. Then he hits you.

“Are you going to let me get away with this?” Triplett asks his reader. He gives you a curve ball that has you slowly nodding your head. “Sure,” you say, “Let’s keep going.” A few chapters later he introduces a new idea. It gives you pause. You stop, look around to see if the room is with you or not, because this idea is kind of out there. It takes a leap to follow, but you nod and keep reading.

“Are you gonna let me get away with this?”

Now you are moving down hill. You are at a pretty hefty trot and things are starting to get a little treacherous. You are in unsafe land now. Running too fast. A bit out of breath. You are in this far, so why go back now?

“Double Dog Dare you to follow me here,” he says.

At this point the idea is so intense, so mind blowing that you can’t not go along. You can only nod and keep running. One dare after the next he gives us. “What do you think of this? This OK, are you still comfortable?” he asks.

No, you are not comfortable, things are moving fast now. Ideas are coming that are out of your control. You are moving so fast that you can’t catch your breath. You get more and more concepts thrown at you, more and more outright brilliant, outright crazy ideas. You are starting to realize now that your author might not be all there. You are starting to see that he has no filter. He will take you places that you are not ready for, give you visions that you could never prepare yourself to see. The book is hot now, running out of control and all you can do is hold on with white knuckle, the wind screaming in your ears, your cheeks flapping as he drags you along into the wildest read you have ever had.

There are things in this book that you will not be ready for. Every now and then, you will look at it wondering if the writer is seriously taking you there, wondering if you can suspend disbelief long enough to finish the book.

Do it. Don’t let this one get away. Halcyon is not an experience that you want to go without.

When you are done, go out and buy a bag of Peanut M&M’s. You have earned them

This book was forwarded to me be an old friend who understands my love of science fiction, and it did not disappoint! It was fast paced, and scifi/fantasy fans will be delighted by the inclusion of many archetypal characters in the story. Throw in a bevy of witty pop culture references and the equation equals an entertaining read. I particularly enjoyed the character of Beth--an intelligent heroine and not just extraneous fluff. All in all, an excellent debut from this author.
