Intrepid Force: Invasion

by Timothy D. Wise

The adventures of the Intrepid Force continue in this second volume of the series. The attack on Venus Base had been stopped. Corbalew's plan had been defeated, but that was only beginning. With only a single ship outfitted with nightmarish technology unknown to late 21st century science, Corbalew had been able to destroy Venus's defenses in a matter of minutes. Now an armada of these ships has surrounded the Earth and rendered planetary defenses useless. Still weary and healing from their last battle, the Intrepid Force struggles to understand the mystery of the phantom fleet and, if possible, to find a weakness. Who or what is Gogue, the mysterious warlord who leads the invasion? He claims to be the Antichrist, a figure from Christian prophecy, but is he really? Aided by Neema, a young woman who claims to have come from a dark and terrible future, the Intrepid Force works to unravel the mystery and free their world before Neema's future becomes their own reality.

About the author

Timothy 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.
