CSFF August 2010 Blog Tour - THE FAVORITES


FLASH TO THE FUTURE!




Frank Creed's
FLASHPOINT:Book One of the UNDERGROUND
WAR OF ATTRITION:Book Two of the UNDERGROUND



The Writers Cafe Press: www.thewriterscafe.com/projects.html


Author Frank Creed creator of the Christian cyber-punk series the Underground announced plans for two new books in his near-future trilogy - War of Attrition (Underground book II) and Into the Underground ( An Underground anthology set in the Underground world). The expected release dates are some time during year's end.
I enjoyed the first book, Flashpoint, and look forward to more stories from the world of the Underground. One of the things I liked about the first book was that only the bad guys actually kill or badly hurt anyone. The good guys, called Sandmen, use their God-given gifts of projecting a mental blast that blows the fuse of the bad guys' mind and causes the bad guys to black out.

The series struck me as a cross between Matrix and Blade Runner, but with a sactified bent. The two main characters are a video gamer and a hacker. What's not to like with today's techno-savy culture?
















I had the good fortune to interview Frank for the October, 2007 CSFF blog tour and include the link here:

During the series' interim Writer's Cafe Press created a role playing game set in the Underground world.

Hey, Tim, great idea to feature Frank's book. I really am loving this tour--lots of books for readers to learn about.

This is one of my top books too! But I just featured it last month in a different "favourites" tour. I've previewed book two and it is amazing!

A fun cyberpunk dystopia. I'm still trying to figure out how he managed that. One of the things that struck me most about this book was how Frank depicted the persecuted Church joyfully working to attack the poverty and decay in the neighborhood they were hiding, rather than just focusing on their own survival.
