Hello, New Member
I just learned about mobileread today and would like to introduce myself and my novel, Falling Star, which is available as a Kindle book and on Smashwords.

I have had an eclectic career as an ocean research engineer, environmental engineer, lawyer, banker, cartoonist, webmaster , and author.

Falling Star is about the discovery of mysterious objects buried deep in the ocean and what happens when they wake up and start sending signals to outer space. Mike is pulled out of a cushy job to help decipher these signals, but is attacked by gangs of ordinary Americans bent on killing him. On top of everything else, Mike learns that a revered friend has died. Will the death of Mike's friend mean that the secret of the mysterious objects will remain forever buried in the silt and muck of the deep ocean bottom?

I just got interviewed about my book on Tabatha Haddix's great website, http://tlhaddix.com

I also receive a nice and very enthusiastic review on Hanging Off The Wire at http://hangingoffthewire.blogspot.com

Falling Star has received eleven very nice reviews from readers since its launch on August 4, 2010 with one reader saying:

With the political/military intrigue of a Tom Clancy novel and the Sci-Fi feel of the 2001/2010/2061 Arthur C. Clarke novels coupled with the page turner, fast paced plot of a Dan Brown novel how could you go wrong. Chen's knowledge runs deep and shines in the book. His characters are very cool and well written.

Hope you'll take a look.

Thank you all for the nice welcomes. I've been preoccupied of late with trying to sell my house and getting Falling Star into print, via Create Space. I hope to become more active on this forum.
