    James Somers

    My writing career began with the publication of "The Chronicles of Soone: Heir to the King," with Variance Publishing/Breakneck Books. This is a sci-fi action novel in the Star Wars style. I have since published, a sequel, "The Chronicles of Soone: Rise of Lucin," as well as two new Action-Thrillers: "Perdition's Gate," and "Hallowed Be Thy Name." I have several other novels in progress in both the thriller and Young Adult Fantasy genres. In addition to writing, I serve as the Pastor of Ozone Baptist Church in Rockwood, Tennessee and also work in Knoxville as a Surgical Technologist. I am married and have five children. I'm always open to questions and comments from readers at www.jamessomers.blogspot.com
