No Ordinary Life
“F. P. Dorchak’s new novel is weird in the best possible way. With compulsive, Stephen King–esque prose, it pulls you into a haunting story of two writers—linked by fate but separated by a lifetime. It’s a meditation on storytelling, courage, and the strange ways art binds us, shows us the reality of life, but also offers a joyous escape. I love it, love it, love it.”
Aaron Michael Ritchey, The Cunning Man Series, Dragon Award Finalist
“No Ordinary Life is a delightfully unsettling blend of realist and metaphysical fiction that takes the reader on a journey far beyond the bounds of either genre. Dorchak’s examination of guilt, memory, and the costs of honest storytelling is haunting in the best kind of way: a rewarding read for anyone who likes their fiction layered and thought-provoking!”

A Philosophy of Stars
There are science fiction writers and then there is F. P. Dorchak. In A Philosophy of Stars, Dorchak takes us on a wild ride through space and time (not necessarily in that order). This thought-provoking, mind-bending novel ingeniously weaves together chapters, each feeling like its own novella that come full circle to a satisfying climax that will have you thinking about mankind in a new light.

Do The Dead Dream?
F. P. Dorchak writes like a hot-rodder heading toward a brick wall. Edge of your seat entertainment! I pondered over each of these stories long after I'd finished reading them. That's what great writing is all about!

F. P. Dorchak is a writer of great talent, one who knows his subject and presents this story in a voice that speaks to a modern world. The space technology that came of age through the last several decades is exciting and scary all at the same time. The tale is woven with scenes and a cast of characters that will sometimes make the hair on the back of your neck stand up.
