Follow irascible raconteur, voyeur and mental saboteur A.E. Williams down a whole slew of rabbit holes, conspiracy theories, discussions about the fallacies and truth of the challenges of our times!
You’ll discover why Williams is one of the most sought-after essayists on the planet. (Sought after by aliens, Sasquatch, sea serpents and hackers, that is…)
Once more, A.E. takes you by the hand and shoves facts, figures and statistics up your…nose, until you are spitting mad at finding out you have been duped all this time by Big Brother, the Deep State, the Man, the Establishment and even your lying parents! (Oh, for the sake of Santa! How could you!)
Rocket Surgeon was just the first stage! Code Monkey ramps it up with a second stage to orbit!
Williams regales you with personal tales from the aerospace trenches. He shows why firmly held ‘scientific’ facts are just as suspect as ‘truths’ that have been debunked, time and again.
You’ll be cramming your tinfoil hat past your ears as you are exposed to the grim secrets of how the world REALLY works!
And, as always, you’ll chuckle and chortle your way through page after page of outrageous stories, anecdotes and observations by the man Cleopatra said was “So funny I laughed my asp off!”
A good friend of mine, and the artist who created the covers for “Terminal Reset” and “Rocket Surgeon” passed away on March 22, of this year.
Steve created the Literary Sherpa, LLC video. He did all of the original covers for all the “Terminal Reset” installments, the Omnibus edition, and the cover for “Return of the Wanderers” and, of course, “Rocket Surgeon.”
He also did the banner graphics for this website.
I met Steve Polyanchek when I was a teenaged Star Trek fan, and we were screening films for an amateur science fiction contest at a Star Trek Fans of Florida[1] convention way back in like 1973.
Steve looking at the Universe in his own unique way.
Steve’s entry was “Terror by Daylight.” It was judged by none other than George Takei, and a few other notables.
He received Honorable Mention.
That group of people, including Rick Coy, John Ellis, Howard Goldberg, Ken Mitchroney, Larry McHugh, Don Phillips and I became involved in building an active community of creatives. Our talents took us many strange places.
Some of them, including Don, Ken and John, went on to minor greatness in Hollywood.[2]
Steve and I managed to stay in the area the longest, and therefore, had a longer interaction. Over the years, Steve made videos, graphics and websites with me, and we always had each other’s back.
We ran an Ebay store with two other gentlemen, both named Mike. They, too, have ventured into the Great Beyond. We made a great team, and their support and hard work got us all through some interesting times.
Around 2006, I had some grave personal issues and Steve was there for me. If it weren’t for him, and many other friends such as he, you would not be reading this.
Steve also was a devout and spiritual person, and also an excellent musician. He had a Facebook following, and many of his fans wrote heartfelt reviews and sent their gratitude to him for his insights and advice.
But I know in my heart he is doing the work of the Universe, assuring that Peace and Tranquility are being manifested in whatever dimensions he now dwells.
Fair winds and good sailing, my friend.
See you on the other side.
[1] The original fan organization was “The Star Trek Federation of Florida,” or STFF. It changed to “Star Trek Fans United” after some internal intrigue, or the STFU. STFU! It didn’t mean what it means today, honest!
[2] Don Phillips was awarded a degree in Cinematography from Columbia University, and went on to be a cameraman and production director for one of Los Angeles premier television stations. John Ellis formed a company that provided practical and digital special effects for many films, including “Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow” and “The Matrix.”
Almost SIX HUNDRED PAGES from the fertile and irascible mind of A.E. Williams!
For the first time, all A.E. Williams’ published works are available as one single volume!
This is the perfect gift for the science fiction reader, science nerd or irascible curmudgeon in your life!

If the recent turmoil in the United States is any indication, the outlook is possibly grim.
This short-story by acclaimed science fiction author and raconteur A.E. Williams explores one possible outcome.

This modern parable of political will drags you kicking and screaming into your worst nightmare – or, perhaps, your ultimate fantasy.
You will be stunned, then shocked, then awestruck at how possible this scenario seems.

You think you’re worried about Global Climate Change now, just wait until you read THIS!
