 Evermore: the Evermore Trilogy begins 

As the Evermore Trilogy begins, Jack Rand is a thirty-year-old nobody until he meets Unim, a biped plant from the planet Zeta6. It’s a textbook alien abduction that suddenly goes awry when Unim's mutiny aboard the starship, Luminer, changes everything. Overnight, Jack’s hometown of Evermore, Pennsylvania, becomes the staging ground for retaking the starship, a scientific craft commissioned by the rulers of Zaroz, Zeta6 and Hool. Its mission: to create artificial human beings from the thoughts of Earthlings.

The battle for control of Luminer is a high-stakes contest to see which side can capture the hearts and minds of five unwitting Earthlings. Commander Zhorin will stop at nothing to complete his mission. Caught in the middle are two artificially-created human sisters who seek revenge against those who are responsible for creating their fatally-flawed bodies.

In the balance, lies the fate of planet Earth and the entire Milky Way Galaxy.

 Time and Time Again: the Evermore Trilogy continues 

The Evermore Trilogy adventure continues. Jack's back for more misadventures with Unim, the biped plant from Zeta6. It’s seven years later and Unim suddenly appears on Earth, snatched from a wormhole during a routine cargo mission between Hool and Zaroz by an evil time travel project on Earth. When Jack agrees to help the Uli find his Hooligan friend, who is lost somewhere in time, he doesn’t know what he’s let himself in for.

It’s Spy vs. Spy as things get so out of hand in Pennsylvania’s Allegheny Plateau that even the New York mob gets involved. The alterable future of planet Earth is now in the hands of Jack Rand, Unim and an Air Force Colonel from the past with special ties to an underground alien presence that has been tinkering with Earth’s population and its destiny since the days of Roswell.

Time and Time Again is an eye-opening, mind-blowing excursion into the timeless mysteries of a boundless Universe where the future is up for grabs and the past never dies.

 Providence: the Evermore Trilogy concludes 

The third and final chapter of the Evermore Trilogy finds Jack and Unim reunited against a world-wide conspiracy to silence the truth about life after death, a plot that has not gone unnoticed by rulers of a dozen afterlife planets in the Milky Way Galaxy. Verona Petrov was once Earth’s first ambassador to the planet Zaroz but now she is a brilliant scientist and teacher at Foxboro University in Pennsylvania and she's determined to prove that the dead live on after their first-time experience on Earth.

Her belief in afterlife planets has garnered her a prestigious and controversial reputation as well as a hefty grant to conduct her research. But it also put a price on her head from certain people who feel she's a threat to business-as-usual and a cherished way of life on Earth.

When the bullets start flying and the proverbial hits the fan, Jack and Unim are caught in the crossfire.

 The Dreamer Never Sleeps 

Michael Casher’s fourth novel explores the possibility that a dreamworld might really exist, somewhere in the vast cosmos, a place where life’s problems are sorted out and lessons are learned, a place where things get done that aren’t getting done during the waking hours.

For Russell Palmer, a work-at-home medical claims examiner, the dreamworld is a frightening place that often presents him with a nightmarish version of his own bewildered life. But when Bobby Mulligan, a senior citizen dreamer from another world, unexpectedly enters Palmer’s life and the lives of two other Earthlings, an upside-down and inside-out world suddenly presents itself in all its mystical, magical glory.

It turns out to be a very real world, the exciting realm of why not and a place of infinite possibilities. Palmer learns that a wealth of unearthly experience awaits everyone, a treasure chest that can only be unlocked by letting go of one’s predictable past and embracing the unknown future.

 Deeds of Destiny 

Michael Casher’s fifth novel ventures into the unseen realm of manipulative beings who help shape Earth’s history for an unnamed higher power.

When Harlan Trotter, an unemployed factory worker, is charged with the murder of his former best friend -- a crime he would never commit -- he seriously doubts if life is always what you make of it. His suspicions are aroused when things quickly go from bad to worse without any effort on his part and his eyes are soon opened to the fact that a lot of his bad luck is someone else’s doing. But whose?

In the ensuing battle between the guardians of fate and the human will, he discovers exactly who and what are the true masters of human destiny. With the help of Belle Summer, the beautiful but eccentric Deputy Coroner who believes in his innocence, Trotter’s life is transformed from that of prey into predator as he and Belle search together for answers and hunt down the elusive denizens of Earth’s invisible underworld.

No "Evermore" hardback...

There is NO hardback version of Evermore: the Evermore Trilogy begins.

I never approved any hardback version of this novel for publication and there never will be a hardback version of this book approved by me and published by Lulu.com. Any HARDBACK version listed or offered at online booksellers is completely bogus, the result of an automated distribution error caused by Lulu.

While a hardback version was one of my 2009 Lulu projects, I did not approve it for distribution and, in fact, I "retired" it from my Lulu projects list rather than approve it because I felt that it was too costly. How this hardback book got into distribution is a mystery I may never fathom.

Additionally, Science Fiction for Thinkers.com, my official website, is the publisher of Kindle Editions of all the books shown on this page, published in 2009 exclusively for reading on Amazon's Kindle Wireless Reading Device. In February 2010 Science Fiction for Thinkers.com also became the official publisher of all my printed works, using Lulu.com's Print On Demand Technology.

Thank you,
