Evolution of F.O.R.C.E.

(The Origin of F.O.R.C.E. book 3)

By: Sam B. Miller II

I had to read this book, I mean after all, it is book number three of a series that has intrigued me from the get go. I have been completely drawn to the character ‘WhatsIt’ since his arrival here on Earth. He is just the most amazing Alien I have ever encountered, and compliments of my imagination, and reading; I’ve met quite a few.

Honestly, and personally I feel that you as the reader need to read the other two books to follow along and understand, but I presume you could possibly get a grasp of a war between planets if you try and read this book as a standalone. So honestly, the choice is yours. I however, as someone who have read all three, feel they accompany one another nicely, and belong together, like family. But, you know what they say about opinions. 

WhatsIt, Colonel Doug and Major Change have been teammates, working together to learn about Chrysalis, the planet that WhatsIt came from. The technology that had been gained through the ship the failed attack where they found WhatsIt was quite remarkable. The hard part was learning it, thankfully WhatsIt was there to help, once he eventually learned that this planet, our planet Earth was not as volatile as Chrysalis was, and that it wasn’t right to conquer it and destroy the entire planet and their species just for another to live. 

On the other hand, General Harrier of Chrysalis now had his own problem, he didn’t care what it took, he wanted the Asiddians destroyed. He didn’t care what it took, but he needed to try, especially now that it seemed that Earth was a no-go. On top of it all, he was noticing that some of the Chrysallaman people had become collaborators now. He just couldn’t understand for the life of him, how his own kind, could turn against him, unless it was the only way they thought they could survive. But he would not stoop that low.  Especially now that the Asiddians had the Chrysalis princess, he had a job to do. 

Now, with General Tom Blunt, he decided to make it their mission to set out and destroy those who took over and destroyed Chrysalis in the first place, the Asiddians, and make an attempt at helping Chrysalis out, so that they can recover their own planet back. He was determined to gather together a team and form a new and better F.O.R.C.E. and work with the Chrysallaman Army, and teach the Asiddians, (who already knew of human existence.) just what war was all about. 

With the Chrysallaman technology, and Earths technology, and some modified and remodified, they set out to make a difference. The battle will be long and hard, because existence will be proven, and lives and planets are at stake. A point is needed to be proven, but who will be the ones to survive and make a difference? Through a lot of struggling, and time, and much deliberation, and pain, as well as lesson’s learned, this book will teach you about friendship, and battles through interplanetary life. 

A lesson can be learned here, if you read closely, and understand. Not just only the strong survive, but that together, uniting as one, and working together, will the strong survive. You cannot fight the battle alone, and don’t try to run away from it to another planet. Stay there, and fight for what is yours. Defend your property, and defend what is yours, and stand for you believe in.

I found this book, as with the other two, to be amazingly written. I enjoyed every minute of it. As soon as I received it, I rushed to read it excitedly. I was so glad that Mr. Miller had written yet another one of these books. Honestly, I love spending time with ‘WhatsIt!’ He is truly an enjoyble Alien, you gotta check him out! 

This book is as always, a five-star read. I enjoyed every single minute of it. I will always be a fan of Mr. Miller. He just knows how to entertain his audiences. And I enjoy going through outer space with him. 

So, the next time you want to read an out of this Word book, you know where to look! 

Here are my questions for Mr. Miller:

1. What made you write this book and how long did it take you?
I wanted to complete the 3 book series finishing the loop I created beginning with “The Origin of F.O.R.C.E.”.  Bringing Whatsit back to his Home Planet, removing his nemesis Hisspat Zeck and tying up loose ends brought me great satisfaction.


2. Who designed this beautiful cover? The final cover was a collaboration of the cover artist who has stuck with me from the beginning, Shamsul Alam, my spaceship designer, Pantelis Lemos in Greece, and myself. The cover needed to evolve with “Evolution of F.O.R.C.E.”


3. Do you have any photos or descriptions of the characters that you can share with us?
I have new illustrations of McPherson, Dr. Heinbaum and Whatsit. They are attached. The spaceship, Destinnee (which is featured on the book cover) is also attached within this interview and review!)

4. What are you working on now? I am beginning the 6^th Chapter of an adventure, mystery, involving King Solomon. My daughter and part-time editor, Anna C. Miller, is captivated by the first 5 Chapters so I think the new book will be fantastic.


5. What motivates you to write? I have a lot of stories in my head and enjoy letting them out. I tell my family my concepts, and they have no idea what universe my brain occupies.


6. If you were to get writers block, or have ever had it, what do you do for it? When I feel the block coming on, I stop writing and thinking about my story and get involved with something that settles my mind. Mundane chores like mowing the lawn or washing the car work. Then a good night's sleep and I'm usually ready to hit the words again.

7. What suggestions can you offer for the aspiring writers out there? You need a team. You need to have people you can bounce your story off of as you are building it. You need both young and old in the team. Family and friends. I can't tell you how many times my 30 yr old daughter or my 29 yr old son would say, Dad, this sounds like it was written by some old guy. It's not fresh. Or you need to describe this character better. Or this character needs more background so the reader can really understand why they act in a certain way. Your spouse will really not pull any punches and believe me I was punched plenty while writing my novels! I had a doctor and a pilot read the books and they pointed out a couple of technical errors which I corrected. All I can say is a team is very important!


8. How long have you been writing?  I began in February, 2015, and I’m still going.


9. What are your hobbies? Dogs, home improvement projects, gardening, and painting miniature plaster Christmas houses.

10. Do you put yourself into your characters? Yes and family members as well. Whatsit’s girlfriend is named after my wife’s favorite name, Chellsee. Becky Chang talks like my sister-in-law. Many of the responses of McPherson, Dr. Heinbaum and General Blunt as based on how I respond to my wife and family.



11. Where is your favorite place to write? I have a large dining room with plenty of natural light and privacy.

The Seed By: Wendi Starusnak

The Seed

By Wendi Starusnak

When I first received this book, I admired the cover, as always this is one of the first things I like to do. I can’t help myself, as an artist, it’s one of the first things that grip me. And one of the things I have always liked about Wendi’s covers is the detail. This one is no different. The cover grabbed me and pulled me, and promised, “I will keep you entertained, come inside.”

This allowed me to have no problem opening the next door. What I liked from the get go was how Wendi gave her readers a note, explaining what is truth and what isn’t. This book is a work of fiction, however, let it be known- there are people out there who ‘may have’ similar cases to this one. And silence and looking away is not the answer. Immediately, a smile crept across my face, as I continued to read along.

Within these pages we are going to learn about Alicia Anderson and her daughter Mindy. An eye-opening tale of an experimental enacted by the government, that Alicia had thought all along, was simply some kind of disorder that her daughter had been going through. 

Sometimes we just think that when our kids start suffering from nightmares, speech impairments, developmental issues and even anger management; we just take for granted it’s normal. But sometimes it isn’t. Than we even have the ones with the birth defects that we are told are caused by smoking, or inherited diseases. Then there are those cases where we don’t even know what is happening to our own bodies because the doctors don’t even honestly tell us, I mean let’s be frank here. And then when they do, they use these big terms we can’t even understand and we just shake our heads like we understand. 

But the thing is, with Alicia, the pregnancy wasn’t even developing right, the baby was growing small, and under developing body. They decided to birth the youngster early, and try to help her grow outside of her mother, hoping to help. Alicia went home alone without her baby, and the hospital kept Mindy, and did everything they could to help with her growth, and. . . yeah and. And what is the question. Maybe it wasn’t then, or maybe it was. 

Today, Mindy has the mentality of a ten-year-old with Alzheimer’s. She doesn’t remember anything, and always needs to be reminded. She is sweet and innocent at home, but when she is at school, it is another story. 

Eventually through a lot of struggle, and even thorough investigations, Alicia learns the truth behind everything. Now both Alicia and her daughter, Mindy must work as a team to survive and prove what happened, and that this is just the beginning. Oh yes, only the beginning of what is to come.

This book is truly a five-star read, thrilling in every aspect. I couldn’t put it down, because I had to know, which is exactly what will happen if you read this book. So, trust and believe, you need to get yourself a copy today, and get busy reading! This book was ultimately eye opening, and unbelievable, well…. I mean if you doubt this kind of stuff. Which I don’t. Well, what are you waiting for?

Here are my questions for Wendi:

1. What made you write this book and how long did it take you?

Creepy, what-if ideas always pop into my head.  I have a special needs daughter who this book is based very loosely on, along with a couple of what if scenarios. It took me about two months to write this book.

2. Who designed this beautiful cover?

Another author Tasha Gwartney made the cover for me in exchange for editing services.

3. Do you have any photos or descriptions of the characters that you can share with us?

I don't have any photos of the characters to share.  I like people to be able to imagine the characters however they see them in their heads when reading.

4. What are you working on now?

Right now I'm working on an offshoot of my Fleischer Series, a book that will be called 'Disturbed'

5. What motivates you to write?

My experiences in life and love for writing both have always motivated me to write. I want to encourage others to speak out and speak up against abuse with my books.  

6. If you were to get writers block, or have ever had it, what do you do for it?

I've never really had writer's block.  I've had times where I just don't feel like writing, but I've found the best cure for that is to just write anyways.  Write anything, just to get the mind working and the words flowing.

7. What suggestions can you offer for the aspiring writers out there?

Just write what's in your heart to begin with.  Worry about editing and all the other stuff after you get the gist of it all down.

8. How long have you been writing?

I've been making up stories since before I could write and writing ever since I knew how to spell. It's been a lifeline for me in some very difficult times.

9. What are your hobbies?

I love spending time with my family, writing, reading, camping and nature.

10. Do you put yourself into your characters?

Yes.  I've found that I write best when I write as my main character.

11. Where is your favorite place to write?

Between my husband and I, we have eight children and seven grandchildren. Although only three live at home right now, I babysit often and am always on the go.  So, I write wherever I have to or manage to find some time to be able to think. Most of the time, that ends up being in my living room.
