Release Day for #cyberpunk Reboot #scifi


It's release day for Reboot! Woo hoo! I spent yesterday evening loading it up to the retail sites (BTW fellow authors, you can set books up for pre-order at Smashwords and ARe if you weren't aware of the fact - wish I'd known that earlier!). Of course, B&N will likely be behind everyone else, but you can now download my cyberpunk short at the following places -


You can also check out the current reviews at Goodreads HERE, and add it to your to-be-read shelf while you're there. All reviews are appreciated!

Blurb:

“Welcome to immortality in utopia!”

From the moment Damien signed up for a perfect life with ReGen Inc., he didn’t ask any questions. He didn’t want or need to know. But after he’s rebooted this time, there are gaps in his memory he can’t ignore, and people he no longer recognizes are accusing him of betrayal. When someone dies, he’s determined to go looking for answers…but sometimes it really is better to forget.

#Science #Fiction #Fantasy Saturday #70

Created by Misa Buckley

Good morning! Welcome to this week's #sffsat snippet, and a smidge more of my upcoming #cyberpunk release - Reboot. What do you think of the cover?

So here we are with the last ever sffsat. Wow! *sad face* I haven't taken part in many over the last year, but I'm going to miss it. Well, last time I gave you the opening to Reboot, with my rather confused male MC waking up. But what's he waking up to?




“Good. I’m going to remove the eye shield, and I want you to open your eyes as soon as you’re ready.”
“Okay.”
Pressure lifted from his face, and a crimson glow replaced the darkness.
“Whenever you’re ready,” the speaker prompted.
Damien opened one eye but shut it just as quickly when light stabbed into his retinas.
“Just relax and keep trying,” his companion urged.
Several blinks later, Damien could squint into the light. The man who’d spoken was a dark, blurred shape hanging over him.
“Good.” The man shifted away.
Still struggling to keep his eyes fully open, Damien stared up at the ceiling. It gleamed with a pale luminescence that stretched as far as he could see. The whole room was white, and an antiseptic smell filled his nostrils.


Reboot will be releasing on the 31st March at all digital retailers. In the meantime, why don't you check out the other participants in this week's sffsat? Just click on the banner below. :)

#Science #Fiction #Fantasy #Saturday #69


Hello! Long time no see! Welcome back to my first #sffsat snippet of 2014! The last few months have been horrendously busy, with both good and bad news, but hopefully it'll be all sunshine from now on, though no less hectic.

Today I'm going to share a snippet from Reboot, the cyberpunk short story I'm releasing at the end of this month (pop back Monday 24th for the cover reveal!). We begin with a rude awakening for my central character...

Online. Active. Integration complete.
The words printed across his inner vision, green on black. Confusion raged at the back of his mind, coupled with a rising nausea, but a cool, calm part of his brain registered understanding. His last self must’ve been damaged or died. He’d just been rebooted.
“Can you hear me?”
That wasn’t in his head. It came from outside, a masculine voice.
He swallowed, not sure he could frame the words with his throat dry and his tongue a heavy weight in his mouth. He gulped again. “Yes.” His own voice sounded alien to his ears. A growl of a sound.

Unacceptable Risk by Jeanette Grey - Review

My review for this book is now live on the Critique de Book site here. The story had me in tears! Recommended if you like a dark and tortured romance with some gritty scifi.
