This Jack Ryan meets Marty McFly novel will appeal to readers who love reading just one more chapter as the pace and characters make it a fast and hard to put down read.
Review
Brody Rodriguez is doing alright for himself but his life is turned upside down when a futuristic weaponised invisible suit is left to him when the previous owner dies.
Kidnapped by a clandestine ‘government’ agency and convinced to use his new found power to fight evil, Brody then learns that not all is as it seems.
Rescued from the clutches of the agency by his, as yet, unborn granddaughter who has time traveled from the future, Brody must fight for his life as well as protect his granddaughter by making sure his future wife falls in love with him ‘Marty McFly’ style.
I have to admit that I’m a sucker for time travel stories especially those with mind shattering twists ever since I watched ‘Back To The Future’ at the cinema when I was 17.
With plot twists that I never saw coming, this story will appeal to anyone with a tech geek bent, time-travel enthusiasts (like me) or just if you enjoy a fast moving action packed adventure. If you loved ‘The Sixth Sense’ or ‘Shutter Island’ then this one won’t disappoint.
The Author
Mr. Torres resides in Northern California along with his beautiful wife, brilliant daughters, and their wonder dog, where he often writes once everyone is finally asleep.
As a child of the ’70s, his original works are inspired by his love of the golden age of Marvel Comics, Saturday afternoon Kung-Fu Theatre, Star Wars, Star Trek, James Bond, The Twilight Zone, and all things strange and unexplained.
These obsessions helped him avoid gangs, violence, drugs, and dropping out of high school, which were sadly all too familiar occurrences in his neighborhood.
He is wrapping up a twenty-five-year career in law enforcement and looks forward to the next chapter. Tomorrow Lives Today is his debut novel and was partly inspired by a lucid dream he had the same day his childhood idol, Stan Lee left this world and crossed over to the other side.
When not writing, he can be found coaching youth sports, attending dance recitals, and on occasion, enjoying a super burrito with carne asada…or carnitas.
