Description
Science Fiction Romantic Suspense At Its Best
Valkerie is tough, beautiful, and has an uncanny knack for survival. Every man on the planet is pursuing her. Yes, every man. The planet in question is Mars, with a total population of four.
Days before a giant dust storm is due to strike their camp, Valkerie is attacked late one night by an unseen assailant.
Fortunately, there are only three possible suspects.
Unfortunately, all three of them are . . . innocent.
About the Book
The Fifth Man: A Science Fiction Romantic Suspense Mars Adventure
is the sequel to Oxygen -- a witty, multi-award-winning roller coaster ride, with a plot that moves at the speed of light and enough geek romance to set your Bunsen burner ablaze.
If you've ever wanted to drive a Mars rover, experience love on an alien planet, or ferret out which of your friends is trying to kill you, then check out The Fifth Man.
Bonus Material: Practical Advice on Writing a Novel
This "Writer's Journey Edition" of The Fifth Man includes three bonus appendices that will delight aspiring authors and readers who want to know the story behind the story. Here's what you'll get:
• Learn how John and Randy develop big ideas. Do you know the "Big Five" story drivers?
• Discover the real meaning of "high concept" and let John and Randy show you their six favorite roads to developing a high concept that will make an editor salivate for your story.
• Watch John and Randy take apart each of the first 31 scenes in The Fifth Man to see what makes each one work -- and which ones could have worked better.
About the Authors
Little is known for certain about John and Randy.
It's a matter of public record that they are award-winning novelists, Ph.D. scientists, and serial entrepreneurs who have perpetrated one crazy stunt after another for the past sixteen years.
Rumor has it that they prowl the night wearing steampunk battle gear to rid the streets of vampires, werewolves, and ducks that poop on your front lawn after it rains.
John and Randy deny all such allegations as "vicious exaggeration."
