Book Description:
Publisher: Tirgearr Publishing (September 5, 2014)
Category: Soft Science Fiction
Tour Date: November, 2014
Available in: ebook, Approx. 165 Pages
After 27 years as a newspaper man, Peter Anderson’s career is slipping away… at least it was… until he stumbled upon the story of a lifetime.
Sent to do a fluff piece about lights in the night sky over Arizona, he discovers far more than he ever expected when he comes upon a mysterious young woman held prisoner in a basement. After helping her to escape she disappears before he can learn the truth about who she is or where she came from.
His search for her leads him back to the lights in the sky and leaves him with more questions than answers. The only thing he knows for certain… the only thing he can count on are the two words offered repeatedly by his friend and guide…. “IS BELT.”
Praise for Tegon Maus’s ‘Machines Of the Little People’ (The Eve Project, Book 1):
“Compelling Science Fiction. As this story unfolds the characters are all so amazing, from psychic elderly ladies, to nine ‘sisters’ and sinister spy like characters and agents. Then, if that is not exciting enough, add to the equation a blossoming love affair, secret research projects and deadly weapons and you soon come to realise that this book is captivating from the first page.”-Susan Keefe, Book Reviews by Susan Keefe
“This novel is most extra-ordinary in how the author can take something and logically make it to be something else. One thing is for sure. The Eve Project is filled with unique characters. I think you’ll enjoy this author’s wild imagination! It makes for a good read. “-Kathryn Svendsen, Shelf Full of Books
” The plot is intricate and very cleverly written. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys science fiction or fantasy. It is a quick read that can be read in a single afternoon. I’m pleased that this is part of a series. I look forward to seeing what Mr. Maus will do with this series.”-Belinda Wilson, Amazon Reviewer
“The characters come alive, and the writing is fast-paced and exciting, keeping the reader turning the pages.”-Virginia E. Johnson, Amazon Reviewer
Praise for Tegon Maus’s ‘My Grandfather’s Pants’:
“Brilliantly written and a test of one’s affections. While I found this creative fictional work both hilarious and seriously action-packed, woven within the pages are the internal struggles acted out externally. Not only do I recommend this book as it is 5 star quality, but too do I recommend Author Maus fantastic science fiction delights. An Author with hopefully many more works on the horizon, I rate his creativity to be extremely high.”–Valerie Caraotta Top 1000 Reviewer, Amazon
“ My Grandfather’s Pants is a funny and surprising novel. An enjoyable combination of fantasy and suspense with a touch of romance. The protagonist, Jack is a likeable old soul thrown into a bizarre situation, and the way he handles the bizarre challenges he faces will keep you guessing . . . and laughing. Pick up this book if you want to take a ride on a saucy, madcap rollercoaster. You won’t be disappointed!“- Joseph N. Sidari, Amazon Reviewer
“A rollicking adventure. I laughed and laughed as poor Jack learns to be careful what he asks for as he just might get it–every man’s fantasy of being pursued by a slew of women. Tegon Maus is an amazing writer. You won’t want to put the book down once you start it.”–Terri Valentine, Amazon Reviewer
About Tegon Maus:
I was raised pretty much the same as everyone else… devoted mother, strict father and all the imaginary friends I could conjure. Not that I wasn’t friendly, I just wasn’t “people orientated”. Maybe I lived in my head way more than I should have, maybe not. I liked machines more than people, at least I did until I met my wife.
The first thing I can remember writing was for her. For the life of me I can’t remember what it was about… something about dust bunnies under the bed and monsters in my closet. It must have been pretty good because she married me shortly after that. I spent a good number of years after inventing games and prototypes for a variety of ideas before I got back to writing.
It wasn’t a deliberate conscious thought, it was more of a stepping stone. My wife and I had joined a dream interpret group and we were encouraged to write down our dreams as they occurred. “Be as detailed as you can,” we were told.
I was thrilled. If there is one thing I enjoy it’s making people believe me and I like to exaggerate. Not a big exaggeration or an outright lie mind you, just a little step out of sync, just enough so you couldn’t be sure if it were true or not. When I write, I always write with the effort of “it could happen” very much in mind and nothing, I guarantee you, nothing, makes me happier.
I have consistently placed in the top 3 in 189 writing contest in a variety of genres and I have been featured in magazines a couple of times to raise money for Saint Jude’s Children’s Hospital.
