THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE!
With the glut of alien stories (Aliens, Encounters, Terminators, Predators, X Files, etc.) in the news, the reader may be tempted to think that the alien scene has been defined. Not so! This book takes a startlingly different look.
Your semi-civilized, other side will be nudged awake by this tale of a Navajo guide troubled by strange happenings in his Farmington, New Mexico community: murderous events and strange dreams. Chaco Rivers Joseph makes a bizarre discovery --- something that will involve him in a war between alien forces determined to be the sole benefactors of the Anasazi heritage.
Characters come to vivid life in this fast moving tale. The reader is transported into a colorful land of small towns, sparse water and wooded mesas. Expect surprises and adrenalin rushes. Rich, brightly hued descriptions delightfully depict local flora and fauna, the landscape and its inhabitants. An unforgettable experience! Your concept of “aliens” will change forever.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
R. Leland Waldrip
After a full career in sales and computer software engineering, Mr. Waldrip, an American University graduate, writes books as a vocation. His novels have a logic and discipline, clarity of style and expression developed through designing logic for large, complex computer software systems. They are vibrant stories of predator and prey, perpetrator and victim, hunter and quarry, as seen from the perspective of a life-long passion for observing people and animals in their native habitat. Whether the novels are set in wilderness (The Last Grizzly), small western town and countryside (Anasazi Harvest), or polaroid, steel and concrete of the city (The Vigilante Virus), his characters embroider these unique stories with vivid color and action.
Mr. Waldrip and wife Linda live with four Jack Russell Terriers in their log home near the Rappahannock River in northern Virginia where he spends his time hunting, fishing, camping, hiking, observing nature, writing and publishing.
OTHER BOOKS BY R. LELAND WALDRIP
THE LAST GRIZZLY --- follow a unique yellow faced grizzly as his dangerous misadventures lead him southward from his home in Yellowstone. Confrontations with man and other beasts are the order of the day as he makes his way to the beautiful San Juan Mountains --- the last wild grizzly in Colorado.
THE VIGILANTE VIRUS --- Dr. Marcus Peterson has had enough. Enough of wife-beaters, child molesters, sex offenders and killers being caught, only to be set free to offend again and again. He invents a biological deterrent and a program to surreptitiously administer it to bullies of a Washington, D. C. suburban area. He has no idea of the maelstrom he is about to loose on himself and his family, the nation’s capitol and the world at large. (Summer 1998)
