Intrepid Force
Intrepid Force is a fast-paced, futuristic action adventure, the first in a series of novels about an elite fighting team in an age of bionics, genetic engineering, and interplanetary travel.
The last time the Intrepid Force fought Gaith Corbalew there were only four survivors out of a team of twenty-two, but they had beaten him. They had broken the back of his interplanetary regime and imprisoned its leader.
Ten years later Gaith Corbalew was freed from prison by an unknown enemy using a nightmarish technology unknown to late twenty-first century science. Bound by a promise, three of the four Intrepid Force survivors assembled a new team, trained them, and outfitted them with cutting edge weaponry. In the first months of the young team's existence they faced a mysterious cult in the swamps of Louisiana, fought computer generated shadows in a terrifying virtual reality world, and faced Gaith Corbalew's army in a battle for the lives of 25,000 colonists on Venus. And that was only the beginning.

About the author
Timothy D. Wise
8 books5 followersTimothy D. Wise says he was born in Florida during the Project Gemini space mission, and his mind has been orbiting the planet ever since.
Tim describes his books as a strange brew of science fiction, fantasy, and horror with elements of romance and humor and some Christian underpinnings. Early influences include Ray Bradbury, Stephen King, C.S. Lewis, and a lot of classic TV and comics. Imagery from his small-town Louisiana and Arkansas background also show up frequently in his work.
One of his first attempts at becoming a published author was when he mailed a hand-drawn Legion of Superheroes comic to DC comics at the age of twelve.
Tim is a university business professor who explores the journeys of dreamers like Walt Disney who somehow managed to transmute their creative visions into realities others could share and enjoy. He tries to inspire his students to develop and pursue their own dreams or to team up with others in doing the same.
Tim went back to school in his forties to pursue a seminary degree in Christian apologetics, a discipline that explores the challenges of integrating faith with evidence and culture. Questions about the nature of souls, evil, science, and the supernatural are staples of both apologetics and the literary genres in which Tim writes, he considers it a natural fit.
