Far Out

Khaled Talib's books have received reviews in Publishers Weekly and international newspapers. Born and raised in Singapore, the author is also a member of the International Thriller Writers. Before he started writing thrillers, Khaled was a magazine journalist and public relations consultant. When he is not writing, Khaled spends most of his time reading, baking, and traveling the world. You can visit him online at www.khaledtalibthriller.com When Lieutenant Commander (LCDR) Ben White retired from the United States Coast Guard, he defended his doctoral dissertation, letting the Coast Guard keep the " LC" while he kept the " DR." Then, when Dr. Ben White was earning his third Master's degree - an MFA from the University of Tampa - he somehow thought he was a poet. But he is not a poet at all. He is a witness. What he writes is testimony. Ben is the author of The Kill Gene, Buddha Bastinado Blues, a Running Wild Press Novella, The Cuban, and poems that have appeared in So Say We All, The Purple Breakfast Review, and Proud To Be.
