First Review!

Odyssey Book Reviews gave Partially Human 3 out of 5 stars! Here's what they said:

Joshua Plofard grows up in 1980's Los Angeles, polite and kind, popular, loved, and respected -- and, the unwitting incubator of alien DNA. His mother is contemplating the right moment to share this with Joshua when he is wounded and the secret is prematurely revealed. When the citizens of LA discover what flows in Joshua's blood, everything changes. Those who once sought Joshua now shun him. He is ridiculed, taunted, and targeted. Joshua launches a crusade to convince the now intolerant community that he is still just Joshua and not the freak they have come to see him as. With the support of a few friends and his mother, Joshua valiantly opposes the small mindedness of the ignorant, eludes The Prejudice (a cold-blooded eliminator), and saves an alien race on the verge of extinction.

Mr. Anderson's words are delivered entirely sans pretense. No smoke and screens; no circuitous plot. What remains is a simple tale of goodness versus the evil of intolerance. His characters are compelled to be unguardedly honest and straight to the point. If you are looking for an intricate, word-woven story, this may not be the book for you. But, if you are interested in writing that dispenses with the fluff and unabashedly contends with the age old struggle of discrimination, then you can curl up on the couch with a cup of tea and this soft cover for a nice afternoon read. The author says "the theme of the story is that of friendship, love, compassion, and loyalty triumphing over human ignorance and prejudice." Toward that end, his delivery is unfailing.

Welcome Everyone!

My name is Dwayne Gerald Anderson and I am the author of Partially Human, a science fiction geared towards teens and young adults.

Partially Human was based on my own experiences with "being different from others". I was diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome when I was sixteen years old. What is it you're asking? It's a brain disorder that makes people think differently. So what's easy for some people isn't so easy for others.

Partially Human tells the story of a young man and how his life is turned up-side down when it is discovered that he is carrying the genes of a dying alien species. In a world that suddenly turns its back on him, he learns who his real friends are, and takes a stand against human ignorance and prejudice.

I am available for questions or comments at andersondwayne_@hotmail.com or andersondwayne@yahoo.com if you have anything to say or ask. I spend a lot of time on the computer, so I'm available most of the time.
