Welcome to the Wednesday’s Favorites post. In the Wednesday’s
Favorites post I will talk about a book I loved and that I think deserves a
little more attention. I read popular books, but also many books that aren’t so
popular (yet). In this post all sorts of books from all sorts of genre’s will have
a chance to shine. Today’s Wednesday’s Favorites is ‘Traveler’ by Dennis W. Green, a book I read in July 2015.
The Book:
Blending mystery, police procedural and sci-fi, Traveleris a thriller in the tradition of Daniel Suarez and Dean Koontz, with just a
dash of Jim Butcher.
So can other versions of him. And one is systematically killing every Trav he
can find.
from unwinding as he hunts the most dangerous quarry of all… himself.

Praise for ‘Traveler’:
complex thriller that will literally keep you on the edge of your feet. I
honestly could not step away from this book until the very end!
smart, fast-paced sci-fi thriller that has just the right amount of science
speak to interest genre fans without alienating casual readers.
to fans of sci-fi and urban fantasy. It’s a quick read and not a big time
commitment but you’ll really find yourself thinking about it even when you’re
done. Highly recommend!
book I was so surprised how Dennis W. Green was able to control my thinking
with his writing. Not to mention the way he described a very complicated
process as something I could understand without too much difficulty. For example the way he described the traveling
to different realities part, I can only say bravo to that!!
About the Author:
Ask someone how they know Dennis Green and you might getany one of the following: Writer, DJ, actor, MC, swimmer, teacher, reporter,
tech geek, husband, or dad. So it’s little wonder his favorite expression is
the above quote by Robert Heinlein’s spacefaring immortal, Lazarus Long.A
popular radio personality in his native Iowa, Dennis’s adventures as a DJ were
covered by newspapers from Anchorage to Los Angeles. He has also worked on the
stage, TV, and independent film. He is one of the Midwest’s most popular MC’s,
hosting dozens of events each year.
Dennis’s first novel, the sci-fi detective thriller,
Traveler, ranked in the Top Ten in the 2014 Ben Franklin Independent Publishing
awards, and has a 4.9 review average on Amazon.. Prisoner is the second volume
of the Traveler Chronicles, and will be out in the summer of 2015. Trav
Becker’s saga concludes in the final volume of the trilogy, Hunter, which is
due in 2016.
Dennis’s writing has appeared in the anthology Sadistic
Shorts, magazines including Grift and Romance and Beyond, as well as his own
blog at denniswgreen.com. He also writes for and edits the triathlon news site
heartofamericatri.com.
By day, he is the general manager of Iowa’s only jazz
radio station, KCCK-FM. And if it’s 5:30 am, you can probably find him in the
pool, working out with the Milky Way Masters swim club.
