  • A note from the Author:

  •  It is never a given to have one's work read, although we put so much time and effort into the creation of the work, that it seems only natural the rest of the world should wish to.

    Thanks to all readers and visitors, for your
    interest in my work.

    HOT NEWS!

    Tau 4 was well received at the UCLA Festival of Books this summer, and most recently at BookExpo Los Angeles, as this story continues to reach out to readers, agents and publishers.
    Book Two is Coming!
    Look for news of Book Two's publication and launch dates this Fall 2008 -- visit here for updates and news on the second book of the TAU 4 Series, the further exploits of GERDA TAU, now moving rapidly forward, . 

    "Victoria J. Waks has sewn together an almost poetic narrative in her debut novel, TAU4."
    says Richard Hawkins, www.scifi.uk.com

    "The main characters are engaging enough that you want to learn more about them. TAU has her inner turmoil as she gets to grips with who and what she is. It's not a typical scifi novel, as it doesn't focus on technology (apart from the merging of two species), though technology is used as the background - by technology I mean lasers and spaceships and the typical stuff. I suppose it's more of a space adventure, and to be honest I don't normally find these engaging, but this is tight and ingenious with some of its plot twists and story arcs.

    Above all though, I think it's the writing, the way the author physically structure sentences, the words used to pull the story along, and the way there are bits of information introduced prior to them fully being realised in the narrative, which makes it a pleasure to read."

    On Saturday, March 8, at 2pm, V.J. Waks had her Book Launch party for her new Fantasy TAU4 at
    MYSTERY AND IMAGINATION in Glendale, CA.  Thanks to all who attended!
    "This book has now been linked with Phillip Pullman's books on Amazon!  This should be a fascinating event. The author is exceeding bright and very creative.  She will be reading, and giving a talk on writing and the genre." -Mystery And Imagination Newsletter   Click here to access their site
