Sydney is a typical teenager until he kills a boy by accident in a fistfight. Juvenile hall can warp the mind, but maybe Sydney started out warped.
He gets into college, works hard, falls in love with the perfect woman. Vampires kill her.
He picks up arms, goes on a journey of revenge, and quickly learns he's gotten into a war. Besides fighting a war, what did he have left? Others are willing to fight, too.
Vampires are a worldwide scourge. Sydney holds the keys to ending it all and securing peace for humanity.
Horror comedy with a faster pace than any book I've found.
I've known Geoffrey for many years. He is a gifted, sometimes evil, gamer, and has been since youth. He kicked butt in Axis&Allies and Titan I've heard.
His dad wrote software for the military, so it made sense for Geoffrey to get me into it. His first piece of software? A Chemical Weapons Attack Simulator for the USAF. Since then, he's built websites professionally and browser-based multiplayer kingdom games.
That history perhaps explains the action-adventure war focus of much of Geoffrey's writing. In 2003, Juxta, Magi was his first attempt at epic fantasy. The muse demanded a sci-fi war book, so he wrote R.A.E.C.E. Genesis.
Often a strong central character is introduced that must learn and make friends to meet an urgent challenge. Growth, determination, loyalty are common themes set against a fantasy, future or apocalyptic dystopia. The novels are all fast paced and include wonderful dry and flip humor.
Geoffrey is thankful for writing instructors Ed Davis and Tim Waggoner at Sinclair Community College. For five years, he ran an eZine, Untied Shoelaces of the Mind. He keeps a secret box stashed away with a number of print magazines he's in.
Geoffrey does more gardening now. Sunshine is his medicine. He wants a competitive yard. His Kung Pao chicken recipe is perfect in a scorch the earth way. He grows fresh legumes.
I know the Muse still has plans for Geoffrey.
