About the Author
Richard Buchko has been a reader and writer of science-fiction since he bought a battered copy of Science-Fiction Adventure Classics for twenty-five cents back in 1972. Those reprints of the 1950’s classic short stories, followed by influences from such masters as Isaac Asimov, Ray Bradbury, and a little later Douglas Adams and Philip Jose Farmer, started a factory of ideas and plotlines that will never be fully realized. “But I’ll try”, he said. Secret Enemies of the Galactic Arm is the first in a series of books set in the years of humanoid expansion through the universe, the Concourse Series. Each book stands on its own as a complete novel, but together they form the future history of humanoid life.
Richard Buchko lives in Michigan with his Julie, his lovely wife of 17 years, and their three children Marc (future artist), James (future chef) and Karen (future hockey player).

SECRET ENEMIES,
By Jeffer Barrows (Houghton MI) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Secret Enemies (Paperback)
There are very few books you can pick up any more that are just FUN to read from start to finish. SECRET ENEMIES has a fascinating plot, unforgettable characters, and a series of locations and situations that demand you keep reading. The writing is crisp, and modern without being full of jargon or ridiculous pseudo-language. This is simply a GREAT book, even if you don't like science-fiction. If you do - LOOK OUT!

A Kind Of Magic,
By A Customer
This review is from: Secret Enemies (Paperback)
One word. Magic! Just a joy to read. It is not just a sc/fi novel. Works on a lot of different levels. Would appeal to just about any reader of any genre. It's bright. Clever. Interesting and a darn good yarn told rather well. It definatly gets a top ten place in my all time greats.
5.0 out of 5 stars
MORE THAN JUST SCIENCE-FICTION,
By
This review is from: Secret Enemies (Paperback)
What impressed me most about this book is that it goes so far beyond science-fiction. It contains adventure, intrigue, romance, mystery, espionage, murder, a little humor, and more. I know the phrase "can't put it down" is over-used, but SECRET ENEMIES is just enjoyable to keep open. I hated to see it end. More! More!
