The Stone Skipper Project

  

The Stone Skipper Project


At the end of the main corridor, the central gate into the sphere was battered and ready to fail. The writhing being behind it screamed in rage and pain. A dozen medical and tech personnel crowded near the elevator, fighting each other to be the first in. The emergency stairwells were locked down. Everyone knew the final way to the surface would soon be locked down next.


THE STONE SKIPPER PROJECT is the new, fast-paced Sci-Fi and suspense novel by Ken Pomarco, his fourth Amazon book release.

THE STONE SKIPPER PROJECT features Thomas Martino, a highly intelligent social misfit with a history of psychiatric evaluations and substance abuse, who becomes a candidate for the top-secret military experiment Stone Skipper.

Radical advances in quantum computing and artificial intelligence have made it possible to control a type of astral projection, transmitting a subject’s consciousness across the universe beyond the speed of light.

At the receiving end of this consciousness transmission, centered within an immense, starless area known as 
The Boötes Void, is an ancient, moon-sized spacecraft piloted by beings Thomas Martino will refer to as “the tutors”, one of whom teaches Thomas concepts and abilities previously unknown to mankind.

The hurried pace of project development, run by an overzealous, single-minded army major, Randall Thompson, causes the project to spiral out of control with terrible unforeseen consequences, jeopardizing humanity with an intergalactic incident.

For fans of alien contact, space-time travel, and suspenseful Sci-Fi-Horror. Prepare to be grabbed.

Ken Pomarco’s influences include Rad Bradbury, Anthony Burgess, Ira Levin, Elmore Leonard, Cormac McCarthy, Rod Serling, Clive Barker, Clifford D. Simak, James Dickey, William Peter Blatty, Stanley Kubrick, Michael Crichton, David Lynch, The Residents, Frank Zappa, Richard Matheson, Arthur C. Clarke.
