Critics Review
“A throwback to classic adventure stories from the heyday of science fiction. You’ll never want to leave.” – Nicholas Sansbury Smith, New York Times Bestselling author of Hell Divers
“A rollicking tale of action, galactic intrigue, and unrelenting, unadulterated fun.” – Jonathan P. Brazee, Nebula Award Nominated author of Federation Marine
“From a quiet Iowa farm to the wild frontiers of the galaxy, Backyard Starship is packed with memorable characters, laugh-out-loud moments, and thrilling action.” – Rick Partlow, author of the Drop Trooper Series
“The kind of fun, adventurous, wildly entertaining romp you love to read again and again.” – Jeffery H. Haskell, author of Against all Odds
J.N. Chaney
J. N. Chaney is a USA Today Bestselling author and has a Master’s of Fine Arts in Creative Writing. He fancies himself quite the Super Mario Bros. fan. He migrates often, but was last seen in Las Vegas, NV. Any sightings should be reported, as they are rare.
Terry likes dragons, caffeine, space, giraffes, and books; order unimportant. Follow for new releases, and join the gang on Facebook at the Cosmic Cantina for a laugh or three. When he’s not in the garden or typing, he’s on the road. Say hi if you see him. He’s friendly, unless he’s hungry, but he’s always eating, so it’s generally safe to approach.
