By Kathleen McKenzie Houston, TX United States - Compared to other sci-fi authors, Mac Tonnies ranks with P.K. Dick, William Gibson, Neal Stephenson, and Bruce Sterling. He is thought-pivotingly original. If you wallow in science fiction like I do, you'll eat this book up.In this short 133-page book, Tonnies' ethereal ideas strikingly contribute to the advance of science fiction.In the introductory story, "Reflections of a Specimen," Tonnies wow-ed me with a new take on clique leaders. He launches into a seeming takeoff on William Gibson's style yet holds his own by injecting his own provoking vision. The other stories in this book are just as juicy. There's no way you can have a favorite because they're all so invitingly well-developed and original. Absolutely fantastic.This is a book come before its time.

By Mike Pacasi - More than twenty years ago, the Viking I and II spacecrafts initiated an era of sensational and mysterious discoveries about the red planet. These new mass of alien information has not been fully understood nor explained satisfactorily by the mainstream scientists. How to perceive and understand alien life or even alien intelligence? Mac Tonnies showed with this book that he is one of the exponents of the so called internet micro culture of hobbyists (his words), authors and independent researchers who are successfully giving a consistent alternate vision of the Martian and many other extraterrestrial mysteries. This book is inspired, dense with a multitude of new accessible ideas and showed that it is set to become the basic introductory handbook of the next step of the human evolution. If we fail to democratically understand what is going to come, to expand our intelligence, and at the same time to preserve our good moral and feelings, we will not deserve the future, we will probably die as a technological civilization. Planet Mars is gently showing us the right way to the stars. If you want to take the red pill, read this book. Don't be afraid, the future belongs to the mind opened courageous guys.

      I would like to know too but at the same time it's none of our business.  Not knowing somewhat tells me that he had a pre-existing condition of some nature and possibly for quite a while.

        You're probably right. I suspected as much. I'm still reading posthuman.

          Mac has so many posts that we'll be reading for years to come.  I was thinking about going to the beginning and linking each of is posts in my daily post.  I would do like one a day utilizing both the UFO and Paranormal blog posts.

          I hope someone cares for his website, especially the one using the domain name.  That can go by the wayside if someone weren't to keep the payments up.  Posthuman Blues should be forever out of the woods since it's Blogger.

          Now that I think about it, I'll look into it and see when it expires. 

          Dang!  I still can't get over it.  I never met Mac but I knew him just the same threw his radio interviews and his thoughts and ideas.  No good guys should die so young, it's just so sad.

          Welp, off to surfing for tomorrows work.  And - thanks for the link to the Mac Tonnies blog post of mine.  I caught it in a Google Alert I got today.  Threw me for a loop but then I remembered that you were the magician.  Thanks again, Eileen
