Red Sky Dawning
Book Description:
Five years after the historic Battle of
Dulaston, Danny Tucker, Lee Summerston, and the Renegades have settled nicely
into life on Aura — yet none more so than Tucker. Fueled by a rising career as
an ASC staff sergeant and a love unlike any he’s ever known, Danny is in the
prime of his life and at last free of the demons that have stalked him for
years.
Some demons never die, though, and when an old enemy beckons to
settle a personal score, Danny soon finds himself swept up in the backlash of a
climaxing civil war, and straight into the crosshairs of a father’s bloodlust
for revenge.
RED SKY DAWNING is the much-anticipated sequel to 2013’s
MAKO, and the tale of one man’s quest to bury his past and protect those dearest
to him as the fate of billions hangs in the balance.
“Thematically
speaking, this is very much a story about growing up,” says author Ian J.
Malone, a native Floridian who now resides in Durham, North Carolina with his
wife and step son. “Whereas book one was this plucky little tale about five
bar-flies, rocking through hyperspace on the road trip of a lifetime, book two
chronicles a lot of the unforeseen fallout stemming from decisions they made
along the way. From an author’s standpoint, it was an intense story to write,
but I think readers will really like where it leaves the saga entering the third
and final book.”
Among the things readers can expect from RED SKY DAWNING
are an array of new characters, a deeper look into the Alystierian Empire, and a
healthy dose of political intrigue.
Still, Malone insists that MAKO fans
will still find all of the action, humor, and pop-cultural charm that have since
become the series’ calling card. “C’mon, guys. What’s a MAKO book without beer
jokes and Funyuns?”
RED SKY DAWNING arrives on Amazon April 30, 2015. The
audiobook will follow shortly thereafter on Audible and iTunes.

About the Author
As a graduate of Florida State University, I’ve
written in a number of arenas over the years ranging from public health to news
and sports. When it comes to my fictional work, however, I’m a firm believer
that nothing shapes an author’s writing like experience. That’s why I credit my
tenures in radio, law enforcement, sport management, and the military for much
of my thematic inspiration, plus the legion of family and friends who’ve stood
with me along the way.
Beyond writing, I’m an avid fan of audiobooks and
sports, though it’s also not uncommon to find me at a concert (LOVE music!), a
movie, or somewhere out by a grill.
At present, I reside in Durham, North
Carolina with my incredible wife, son, and our two dogs — but I’ll always be a
“Florida boy” at heart. ;)
