Quote
There is Strangeness in the UniverseTM
Alan Caruba, a Charter Member of the National Book Critics
Circle had this to say:
It is rare when a
novelist makes his debut with as powerful a novel as Philip Chen’s Falling Star ($15.25, available
from Amazon.com, softcover and on Kindle). It begins in 1967 and concludes in the Oval Office in 1993. In between Chen introduces
you to an array of characters, all of whom have unique talents, some of whom are U.S. Navy officers, some with the FBI, all
devoted to the protection of their nation. They are a handful of people who know about mysterious entities far beneath the
surface of the waters surrounding the U.S. Others are members of a rogue KGB unit, moles who lived among us, but whose mission
ended when the former Soviet Union collapsed. This novel stands out for the way you are introduced not just to the characters,
but the physical reality in which they live, the sights and even the smells. Slowly and then with increasing intensity,
the mysteries are unraveled, the enemies identified, as life and death often hangs in the balance. Drawing on his own life
as an ocean research engineer, attorney and banker, Chen brings an authenticity to the novel that provides a heart-pounding
reality that forces you to ask “What if?” What if Earth was under observation by those from another planet that
is circling a dying sun? What if they intended to colonize it? What if the year for this was 2013? If you read just one novel
in 2011, make it Falling Star.
