LOOKING GLASS PORTAL by Larraine Wills
All heck breaks loose when a cowboy and his horse are brought aboard an alien spaceship! Garrett is either in a coma, lost in crazy dreams or just plain crazy, locked in a padded cell living a delusion. Pig-like men don’t come out of thin air with a weapon that punches holes through flesh and bone. There is no such thing as a Thornn research vessel or giant bumble bees called yantz that produce an organic substance to replace missing flesh and bone, and there sure as hell isn’t really a Pegasus. Aliens of all shapes, sizes and colors don't gang up on you and try to kill you. But damn if it didn’t all seem real as real as the constant pain he had lived with for twelve years. Did it even matter? Real or insane delusion, Garrett knew he was in a fight for his life. Publisher: SwimmingKangaroo.com $5.99 - ebook - 300 pages
