Sasquatch Races


Book Description

SASQUATCH RACES, the second book of The Emagication Trilogy, is presented in a different style of magic realism science fiction than the first book but involves primarily the third generation characters of that story. Although it helps to illuminate some of the solutions, the second book is not meant to be dependent upon the first book with respect to understanding the story. A field search with Tessa for bigfoot uncovers shapeshifting humans who transform Mickey involuntarily into a sasquatch. He faces being alone, unprepared for the most basic circumstances, or joining a terrorist group. What should he eat? What does he look like? Should he contact his family to let them know he is alive? Is he really ‘alive’ in a human sense? Where would he go if he tries to escape? And what are the psychological tests being administered to him? Who are these shapeshifting characters really? What long-term impact does biological mutation have? Who can rally the true sasquatches and how can they help? Why has Mickey been chosen in the first place? What is the story behind the story? QUANTUM CRYSTAL SKULL, the first book of the trilogy, is presented as a magical realism cyclical period piece but is grounded in social history. Ultimately the first book brings the story to the northwest and provides the challenging lines and boundaries for the predicaments of the second book of the trilogy. What ever became of the lone escapee of Stalin’s evil experiment to cross-breed humans and apes for warriors? Why is the crystal skull a catalyst for either destiny or fate? Can secrets become self-condemning? What affect does the crystal skull on biological mutation? Mickey, unsure of his role in the family prophecy, has a chance, bizarre incident with Tessa. Or was it chance? EMAGICATION, the third book of the trilogy, was written in yet a third style of magic realism and is interactive with the first two books. Why would Novalogy attempt to control the moon? How does a clone battle his original for his soul? The learning curve for author Glade Mahoney involves two reappearing red stones, time dilations, a psychic sasquatch, a secret native storytelling society and a guided interdimensional incarnation event. He must create the first two books of the trilogy to necessitate “emagication” as a solution. The entire trilogy is expected to become available during 2016.
