An unholy adversary has escaped its ancient confinement deep in the Arctic Ocean. It’s loose on the Earth, seeking a chronowarp so it can open a portal to its homeworld, thereby unleashing its kind upon the unsuspecting human race. It’s up to Logan and Field Agent Jenna Jones of the Counter Alien Unit to stop the force of unmitigated evil. But Logan has lost his extraterrestrial stealth ship to hijackers, who use the Galactic Guard tech to aid the enemy. The fate of the world rests on one man outwitting and outfighting a thing more powerful than anything he ever imagined. THE CHRONOWARP is the second book in the Invaders Series, a novel of science fiction adventure by bestselling author Vaughn Heppner. The series starts with book 1, INVADERS.
I was born in Canada and remember as a small boy crawling in my snow-fort. I closed my eyes, and when I tried to open them, they were frozen shut. I didn't panic, but wiped away the ice crystals, unglued my eyes and kept on building my tunnel. Those were great days! I moved to Central California before seventh grade and couldn't believe I lived in a land where oranges grew on trees and you could pick grapes from the vine.
I used to wonder what I wanted to do with my life, what kind of work specifically. I was miserable not knowing and bordering on desperate. Then one day a friend gave me his typewriter. I began working on a novel. A different person told me it was much easier on a computer, so I bought one and began getting up at 4:30 A.M. each morning before work, writing for three hours. My eyes were unglued once again as the pang of misery left my gut. I knew exactly what I wanted to do: write. So now that's what I do, I write, and write, and write, and I love it.
I have read alot of Vaughn's science fiction and particularly like the sometimes humorous angles that he utilizes. It makes reading his works more relaxing and really....who needs an overly serious plot. I would love to see the series continue.....Logan can use a few upgrades, but that is more within the pervue of the author. Please keep. writing good science fiction Mr. Heppner.....you have helped me through a few boring weekends with your writing. I look forward to seeing more soon. Thanks! Review of The Chronowarp by Vaughn Heppner.
So book 1 was acceptable even with its sketchy technology and magical sci-fi threads. Unfortunately, the narrative fails to deliver in book 2 and instead of a storyline that might be plausible we are given a mishmash of conflicts producing a very high body count from collateral deaths, some most gruesome. The story no longer makes any sense and should be returned to the shelf.
I really enjoyed the 2 book series. I liked the Characters and humorous and dangerous personalities. I would like to see this series continue. The books were also entertaining, adult, and kept me guessing on how much possibilities the plot contained.
I love the way the stories combine, well written, BUT, I am a man that does not tell. So I will not tell anyone what to look for. Just read the series in order, and maybe, just maybe, Mr Heppner will have the next book done. Well worth the wait. Trust me.
Sci-Fi readers no matter what book you select by this Author you are in for a treat. His books have distracted me from my rotator cuff pain! Thank you Mr. Heffner.
Most books go downhill after the first book, I was pleasantly surprised that this one did not. It was a pleasant read for a couple of days. Looking forward to the third book,and I will be sure to look for more works of this author
Exciting, intriguing and very enjoyable series!!!!
Congratulations to Vaughn Heppner for this amazing series. It’s hard to find such an interesting and exciting author who not only writes intelligently but also provides top rated plots, characters and excitement in the stories.
A couple of times I almost put this book down even though it is so well written . Cause the main character is so dumb.. then I remembered he was a Marine.
Worthy continuation of the first book. The feel of a 40's gumshoe novel, pre-sapiens hominids, gangsters and government agencies was a hoot. There isn't much by way of plot or heavy character development. He doesn't do that well in any of his books.
He's managed to still avoid the misogyny of some of his other books (that 1940 view of women is almost necessary to fit the gumshoe theme) and the overtly racist dialogue that made me stop reading one of his books.
It's one slapstick scene sliding into the next and they fit logically. It's light and fast, no thought required.
