Hello Imgur!
As many, I have been lurking for quite a few years now. Normally I would never come out of hiding to post, so please be kind! Whether this post goes anywhere or not, I am happy to at least do this for the father in my life who has gone through so much to make sure I had it good. It's a shameless point at his work for your consideration! I have seen this done in the past and I have seen the wonderful people come together to help.
The series above was one he started a while ago, his first set of books! He has always wanted to write his own books. As we all know, life can be pretty distracting and in our pursuit of money, we generally put aside the self and focus on what we need to survive in the capitalist world.
I know you guys are squiffy about pixels but honestly, it's fine, I am just here to redirect to his site. http://kmtolan.com/index.htm
My dad made a decision that he would finally get started on his true passion near the end of his work life. Knowing nothing publishing, he was given a chance by Champagne books, who were trying to expand at the time in to other genres.
Thanks to Amazon abandoning its book sellers, he has run in to some hard times with promotion and what not. I only decided to make this post because as you know, artists tend to be emotional and I hate seeing him get depressed. He is an AMAZING author and he always needs to be reminded!
My dad has by now, retired since his first book was released and he tends to sit at home working on his new stories and making tiny knick knack dragons out of wire and stuff. Listed below are some book cover and descriptions of other books he has written. Creating the mythos of hobos out of old real life beliefs from those who rode the rails, to space where we take on the role of the invaded aliens by the humans instead of acting as the victim of alien invasion.
All of these come straight from his website, this is one of his newer series. He is currently working on another book right now.
So far this is a 1 book deal, no idea if he plans to make more!
This is part of that 5 set! I know it shows 4 at the top, but there is a 5th. I believe it's a prequel.
This is a shot in the dark, as all first time posters are. I won't give you the cliche's, whether it makes it or not, I was happy to share something other than a Meme, something wholesome. I just want to see my dad get the exposure that his wonderful work deserves. He is an introvert, so he only does so much to promote himself.
He has been an inspiration in my life and I think my folks are the only ones keeping me alive at this point. I owe them so much. Feel free to message me any questions.
That site again is http://kmtolan.com/index.htm - you can find excerpts to each book here, chapter examples too!
You can find his work for sale here as well: https://www.amazon.com/K.-M.-Tolan/e/B005EXKWGU - Amazon has lost its way for the almighty dollar, but his work is still buried in there.
please leave reviews if you decide to read! He loves the feedback. Like any true artist, he just wants to share his vision with the world.
