If you'd like to promote other sci-fi books that you've written that are not time-travel-related, this is the place to do it.

I suggest at minimum offering a link to the cover of your book, a link to your book, and a blurb to make us want to go out and buy your book immediately.

Nigel Mitchell My scifi/comedy novella, "Flying Saucers"

Mortog Flethrax is eager to make his mark in the Xenon Empire that rules the Galaxy. Mortog's first assignment is an insignificant little planet so pathetic that even its inhabitants call it dirt: Earth. With his devoted robot soldiers and textbook from class, Mortog plans to rule the world in less than twenty-four hours. He doesn't count on Jeffrey Foster, a convenience store clerk whose best friend happens to be a highly trained intergalactic freedom fighter. Jeffrey will be forced to rise up and save the world.

Phil D'Amato, NYC forensic detective, is caught in an ongoing struggle that dates all the way back to the dawn of humanity on Earth--and one of his best friends is a recent casualty. Unless Phil can unravel the genetic puzzle of the Silk Code, he and his loved ones will soon be just as dead.

Winner Locus Award for Best First Science Fiction novel of 1999.

"As a genre-bending blend of police procedural and science fiction, The Silk Code delivers on its promises." -- Gerald Jonas, The New York Times Book Review

"As twisted as a double helix. " -- Wired

"D'Amato is an appealingly savvy character, and Levinson brings a great deal of invention to the endeavor." -- San Francisco Chronicle

"hard to put down, easy to pick up again. " -- San Diego Union-Tribune

Dr. Phil D' Amato returns from The Silk Code, winner of the Locus Award for Best First Science Fiction Novel of 1999, with another blend of biological science fiction and hard-boiled police-procedural mystery.

Memory itself is the suspect in The Consciousness Plague - more particularly, loss of memory, in slivers of time deducted from a growing number of individuals, which plays havoc with everything from the investigation of serial stranglings to candlelight dinners. D'Amato, NYPD forensic detective, investigates a spate of unusual cases and finds evidence of a bacteria-like organism that has lived in our brains since our origin as a species and may be responsible for our very consciousness.

A new antibiotic crosses the blood-brain barrier and inadvertently kills this essential bug. Phil himself falls victim to this memory hole, and must struggle to get the proper authorities to pay attention before everyone loses so much memory that they forget that they forgot in the first place.

"more nearly reaches the heights of Isaac Asimov's classic SF mysteries than those of most other genre hands who attempt them manage to do these days" - Roland Green, Booklist

"Levinson's intelligent blend of police procedural and speculative fiction should appeal to fans of mystery and science fiction" - Library Journal

"Intriguing speculation, solid sleuthing, and agreeably baffling suspects" - Kirkus

The Villain & The Golden Apple by Ken Doggett The Villain & The Golden Appleis a collection of two Science Fiction novellas and a short-short, priced at $2.99 for the ebook version.
In the first novella, THE VILLAIN is a member of the Enclave of the Villainy who goes outside the rules. Using his power for just the “party displays” practiced by the others was not enough. Forging his own path, specializing in Illusion, he violates not only the rules of his Enclave, but of society itself. Now, after years on the run, he must use his illusions, and all of his skill to defend himself against its power.
THE SECRET OF LIFE, THE UNIVERSE, AND EVERYTHING, a short-short that explains pretty much everything.
In the second novella, THE GOLDEN APPLE is a prize asteroid fought over by both Earth and its former colony, Mars. But it appears that the squabbling factions have crossed paths with the wrong man. After he loses everything to the war, he finds a drastic way to end it.

Stan Smith | 3 comments Just wanted to let everybody know that my book, "The Search for Bryant Hunter" (http://www.amazon.com/The-Search-For-...) will be part of a "Kindle Countdown" promotion starting May 5. The Countdown runs through May 11. The book will start at $.99 on May 5 and increase to $1.99 on May 7, $2.99 on May 9, and reach full $3.99 price on the end date of May 11.

Here's your chance to get a 4.5-star reviewed book for a moderate price! Mark your calendars.

When mysterious billionaire industrialist Morgan Hunter's son Bryant disappears from his
megayacht Sirene under bizarre circumstances, the businessman organizes a search for the boy, spearheaded by ambitious journalist Kristin Ewell.

Joined by marine biologist Ike Neumann, physicist Stephen Minter, and diver Duke Duquesne, the searchers embark on what is supposed to be a routine exploration of the ocean off Baja California,
seeking the answer to Bryant's disappearance.

But when incredible lights start to appear at night, and the truth behind Morgan Hunter's dangerous past is revealed, the search becomes anything but routine.

Was Bryant's disappearance the only reason for the search? Who--or what--is causing those lights and the dazzling daylight displays? Who is Morgan Hunter, really?

As the search grows ever more eerie and menacing, Kris, Ike, and the others realize there is much more beneath the waves than they ever imagined.
