Weird Space

The Debut Novel by A. M. Wiley

“A. M. Wiley’s novel, Weird Space, is a very unique and fresh approach to science fantasy. It is a must read.”

Howard Kazanjian, producer of Star Wars’ “The Empire Strikes Back”, “Return of the Jedi,” and Indiana Jones’ “Raiders of the Lost Ark.”

Ever wonder what else is out there? So does twelve-year-old Drew Shipley, a daydreamer whose only fear is growing up. To escape his present and avoid his future, Drew and his friends roam their small town playing night tag, fantasizing about aliens and spaceships, and exploring the haunted Gladhill barn. But Drew’s fantasies become reality when a starfighter from another dimension crashes in the cornfield behind his house: Sheela Vestril, commander of the Dimension Warriors and last hope in a galactic war to save their world from the vile Lord Malgore. As Drew learns more about Sheela, he and his friends band together to help her complete her mission and keep her a secret from their parents, a suspicious deputy, and a ruthless gang of bullies.

But this isn't a game, and Drew and his friends have no idea what they’ve signed up for. Who is this girl and what's chasing after her? Are Drew and his friends really cut out to save the universe? Is this Drew's chance to escape the realities of his life, or will those realities follow him no matter what galaxy he's in? Time is running out, and growing up is no longer a choice: It's a matter of life and death.

With his life on the line, Charlie uncovers the truth about his parents, his new friends, and the beast that hunts him. But will this be enough to help him face his fear and survive the night?
