Winston Chase and the Alpha Machine

By Bodhi St. John

Winston's biggest fear had always been the school bully. Turns out, waking up to being a half-alien freak was worse. Why? Oh, maybe the bruises that glow neon blue. Or the even higher odds of being rejected by his dream girl. Or, best of all, the sudden attention from gun-toting goons in dark suits.Winston's mom thinks some junk left by Winston's long-missing father in a safe deposit box might make things better. Not likely.It's going to take more than alien artifacts and a plastic baggie of clues to stop a mysterious government organization. It might take Winston giving up everything he's ever wanted. And everyone.Armed only with his wits, his snarky best friend, and a few wicked new abilities, Winston has to stay one step ahead of a lunatic and dive into the past. Otherwise, there won't be a future. Winston Chase and the Alpha Machine is book 1 in a completed trilogy packed with electrifying fun and adventure. Early reviewers rave: "What a great book! The pace is exciting and made me want to keep reading to find out what would happen next." "Mr. St. John did a marvelous job creating characters that come to life. His wit and clever modern references will make you laugh out loud while sitting on the edge of our seat. ... I have started reading this to my class, and they are hooked." "It was very inventive. ... A big secret, many perils, foes, and unlikely heroes [all] sparking the imagination." "Such a unique story. ... I have come late in life to the science fiction genre, but probably because there was not a fabulous book like this, where I could relate to the characters, when I was young." "This book wasn't anything that I thought it would be, it was better."
