About the author
Bill Eckel
9 books12 followersI was born when I was very young. By the age of one, I was walking and talking. My mother spent the rest of her life trying to get me to sit down and shut up. To wit, she gave me a pencil and a piece of paper. Whether or not the rest is history is, apparently, up to you. Be kind.
I am a Navy veteran, musician, and a retired air traffic controller. I have dabbled in songwriting, movie-making, and (yes) comedic performance. I have an album entitled, One Swell Foop, wherein I wrote seven of the nine songs. They're like stand up put to music.
I have attended Midwestern State University and, most recently, the University of Oklahoma where I studied professional writing.

If you enjoy fast-paced sci-fi thrillers, you're sure to enjoy reading this. A future where humans are considered obsolete, and it's literally a fight for survival for humans and cyborgs. The story moves along pretty swiftly, and there's plenty of tension and action to get your heart racing. Just when you think you know where the story is going, there's a new twist thrown your way. The characters are well-developed, and it's easy to like the MCs. Highly recommend for techno-thriller lovers.
