I have had the pleasure of meeting a bunch of great authors over these years of blogging. From the very well-known (fan-girl much?) to those just starting out on their writing journey. Book/reader events are a great way to find new-to-you authors — I highly recommend checking them out. Early this year I met an up-and-coming sci-fi author, Barry Kinservik. If you love this genre, or know someone who does, have a look at his book, Decimation Force.
Here are the first 2 lines:
“Shut it down! Shut it down!”
Join Decimation Force on their harrowing adventures to defeat the Kaiborg Menace!
At the height of a destructive and bloody world war, the world was attacked by an outside source using giant monsters enhanced with cybernetics. These monsters, known as kaiborgs, have caused the battered nations to unite for survival. Their hope lies in the fruits of Project: Decimation Force.
Now, five pilots must utilize the immense power of the five Deci-machines to fight back against the kaiborgs and uncover the mysteries behind them. When all five machines combine into the super robot, Armagedatron, their true destructive power is revealed. However, the war has left deep scars in each pilot and they must confront these scars as a team, or it will destroy them before the kaiborgs can.
Meet Joseph, Alice, Karl, Boris, Jeffery, and the rest of Decimation Force’s personnel as they all strive together to protect the world.
Barry Kinservik was born and raised in South Georgia. He developed a love of reading in fourth grade with Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events. Barry hasn’t stopped reading since. He has always had a love for hero tales and stories of epic struggles. While he attended Georgia Southwestern State University, he realized that he not only loved stories, but that he could enjoy writing about them as well. He was awarded the Dolores Randolph Capitan Award for best creative writing. All of these events helped Barry to decide on a career in writing.
When Barry isn’t writing or working at his day job, he can usually be found playing video games. It is no wonder that Barry enjoys the story lines of the games just as much as he does actually playing the game.
Barry enjoys stories across many forms of telling such as: Music, video games, graphic novels, books, and movies. He is drawn to the similar and different ways each of these modes tells the story and how the same story alters between different modes. Some of his favorite stories are Dark Souls (video game), Berserk (manga), Neon Genesis Evangelion (television and movie), Metalocalypse (television and music), Gilgamesh (classic hero tale), Frankenstein (novel), Transformers (television, movies, video games, and comics), and the Bible.
