Reviews for PSI/Net

by Billy Dee Williams and Rob MacGregor

Tor, June 1999

"PSI/Net is fantastic storytelling, literally mind-blowing, yet grounded in science. A can't-put-down thriller that leaves you thinking you can't wait for more."
--Phil DeGuere, producer of The Twilight Zone
and Simon and Simon

"An intriguing and chilling page-turner of an exposé guaranteed to satisfy readers. X-Files and Twilight Zone fans will eat it up."
--Gary Goshgarian, author of Stone Circle

"PSI/Net makes psychic warfare fascinating and terrifying. It also gets a grip on you and doesn't let go. It's exciting in every respect, and certainly one of the most original and relentless thrillers in years."
--Ed Gorman, Mystery Scene

"This masterful thriller weaves together all the strands of what really goes on in the world of psychic espionage. Take it from one who was there, Williams and McGregor have touched a nerve. I found myself projecting back into the dark world of the CIA's psychic espionage program with all its trimmings. This book is all too close to the reality of the world it portrays. Chilling... and more real than you can possibly imagine. I loved it."

-–David Morehouse, author of Psychic Warrior
"A high-tech thriller with a paranormal edge, set against an all-too-real backdrop of politics and radical militia terrorism. It is well-written, suspenseful, and engaging."
-– Kevin J. Anderson, New York Times
bestselling author of Star Wars Jedi Academy Trilogy

"The authors have done their homework for this fast-paced, action filled book which pits good against evil, the dark side of human nature against the light. . . . an exciting read that leaves you breathless."
-– Angela Thompson Smith, author of
Remote Perceptions: OBEs, Remote Viewing and Other Normal Abilities

.

"Pages of nerve-rattling adrenalin, this is the thriller you can't put down. PSI/Net proves there's no place left to hide, not even in your mind."

-–Hilary Hemingway, author of Dreamchild

.

"A nuclear weapon is on its way to Washington DC, a new American revolution hovers on the horizon, and America's president believes he's made contact with an alien race. Calloway, America's best remote viewer and psychic knows there's something terribly wrong and he's out to prove it. But someone or something wants to stop him. With details and descriptions of remote viewing that are surprisingly similar to real events, Billy Dee Williams and Rob MacGregor present a chilling vision that is closer to truth than one might think."

--Joseph McMoneagle, Remote Viewer #001,
Project Stargate author of Mind Trek



Reviews for HAWK MOON

*MACGREGOR, Rob. HAWK MOON. (Simon & Schuster)
Grade 7 & Up

A well-written, fast-moving murder mystery set in contemporary Aspen, CO. Sixteen-year-old Will Lansa is a football hero in the throes of discovering more about his Hopi heritage as begun in PROPHECY ROCK (Simon & Schuster), 1995). He is also the last person known to have seen his girlfriend, Myra, alive. No body has been discovered, but Will finds himself at the center of the investigation. Interesting, believable teen and adult characters and fast- paced action make this novel a bridge to adult murder mysteries. The resemblance to Tony Hillerman's books is great, not just because Will's father is a policeman on the reservation (in this case the Hopi reservation), but also in the heightened mood, respectful tone, and elegant pace that smoothly integrate matters of culture, religion, and contemporary life in the western United States. Of special interest here, too, is the adept portrayal of the school computer-lab milieu, integrating a sub-plot about e-mail, computer ethics, and the self-described computer nerds who inhabit this e-world. One of them, a girl named Corey is reminiscent of Robert Cormier's "Avenger" in WE ALL FALL DOWN (Dell, 1993) in her secret, impassioned adoration of the protagonist, but here she becomes a key, positive player in the resolution. While the identity of the murderer may not be a big surprise, getting there is definitely half the fun.
--Joel Shoemaker
School Library Journal (Nov. 1996)
