THE RIFT, my new novel, is here!
THE RIFT is finally here! I'm happy to report that the eBook and paperback editions of The Rift are available on Amazon as of today, with the audiobook to follow in a month or two.
This novel is my first collaboration ever, a team-up with the esteemed Joshua T. Calvert, and we're excited to learn what you think of it.
Happy reading!

“The universe was infinite, and there were most likely an infinite number of universes. To sit on one tiny planet in an ocean of infinite infinities and believe you understood anything about the true nature of existence and reality was absurd.”

“Presidents could be fickle and arbitrary. Each new one with wildly different visions and priorities. And when all was said and done, they were nothing more than civilians who managed to get donors excited enough to give them money, and then win a popularity contest. They weren’t the smartest or best trained that humanity had to offer, and they didn’t have the best judgment. The truly brilliant, truly gifted, wanted little to do with politics.”

After what seems like an eternity--at least to me 🙂 -- my new novel, UNIDENTIFIED, is finally out! It is now available as an eBook (enrolled in Kindle Unlimited), and a paperback, and I'll let you know when the audiobook is available. This one is a science-fiction thriller detailing the compelling evidence that UFOs are here, while offering a mind-blowing fictional take on the reasons why.As always, if you read this one and enjoy it, I'd be grateful for your help spreading the word. Also, if you get a moment, please consider writing a few sentences in a Goodreads review box so other readers will know what's in store for them.
Thanks! Happy reading.

Hi. I am a pathetically poor user of Goodreads, and I have no idea what I'm doing. The sequel to my book, WIRED, is now out, and I'm trying hard to find ways to alert WIRED readers that it is available. Since it became a NY Times & USA Today bestseller, I've been inundated with people writing me asking about a sequel, and I told everyone I would let them know, but I'm a poor organizer and I didn't keep track of who contacted me as well as I thought I had. Anyway, if anyone out there ever sees this, and you know someone who has read WIRED, please let them know. Thanks! All the best, Doug.P.S. and if my attempts to alert readers are working better than I think, and you've already seen something about this through another channel, sorry to be such a pest.
