    MCALISTER’S WAY FREE Weekly Serialisation Volume 13 Chapters 24 — 25The FINAL Volume!A Young Adult Action and Adventure Story for Baby BoomersThank you for taking the time to read this serialisation. I hope you liked reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.EpilogueWhen I first wrote McAlister’s Way I had no plans for a sequel. In fact I was thinking of turning my Viking novel, The Wealth, into a trilogy, which still might happen. However after writing the epilogue I realised I couldn’t leave the story hovering so Danny and Angela’s adventures grew into a four-volume set.I wrote McAlister’s Spark in the middle of it all, which is a post-apocalyptic survival adventure with our collator Zach taking centre-stage.I have also added three McAlister prequels set in the Napoleonic Wars, Wild West and WWI. I’m working on a fourth, set during the Spanish Civil War and into WWII which will give an uninterrupted 200 years of McAlister Family action and adventure.FOLLOW Danny, Angelia, Monty, Frenchy and the rest of the characters in this series in action-packed adventure after adventure across South East Asia, Africa, the USA, the UK, and beyond in the other books of The McAlister Line.Download this FREE volume to get the full list.Richard Marman, Author==============KEYWORDS/TAGS: McAlister’s Way, action, adventure, Zach, Danny, military, helicopters, choppers, soldiers, airmen, boarding school, priests, child abuse, attack, New South Wales, Australia, Sydney, Merimbula, plane, flight, fly, Young Adult, YA, explore, discover, New Guinea, CMF, enlist, Kodoka Track, MIA, Missing In Action, Japanese surrender, WWII, war, WW2, Tropic of Capricorn, Rockhampton,, aerodynamics, airport, Andrew, Ange, assign, Aunt, beach, behead, bio, Bishop, bloke, burial, chemo, coach, Cobar, Collins, colony, Commissioner, complaint, complete, concentrate, Dad, Daiman Ailan, Daiman-Sikmanmeri, Dana, DC-3, Dakota, C-47, Skytrain, Desmond, die, disease, doctor, Doris, dorky, dozen, egg-heads, Elizabeth, engines, England, enroll, experience, fleet, flight-planning, Frenchy, friends, future, gaol, Gertrude, Girls, glam, Googled, Goose, Gordon, Grace, Grandpa, grandson, handsome, happy, holiday, Hons, Horii, hospital, island, Jack, Jane, Joan, Kago, kinda, knew, know, Lady Burdekin, Lae, landing, laptop, Lenny, London, looker, man-hug, Manus, marry, maths, MBE, McAlister’s, medical, memories, military, Monsignor, Monty, Nan, Natalie, Navy, Nem, nerdy, New Guinea, Nogat, NSW, ocean, Pacific, paddocks, PhD, physics, pilot, pirates, plane, Professor, Rabaul, radio, samurai, scarper, school, scum, sea, secret, Sister, Southern, Stanley, stories, sugar cane, sword, Sydney, tall-tales, Taylor, Tynan, University, Ursicinus, wicked, Will, woman, Wynter, Zach, Zachary. leprosy

    MCALISTER’S WAY FREE Volume 10 - Weekly Serialisation Chapters 18 — 19A Young Adult Action and Adventure Story for Baby BoomersChapter 18So many ex-servicemen, especially those who’ve seen combat or been wounded are now diagnosed with PTSD, some people feel it may be a band-wagon in many cases. PTSD manifests itself in so many different ways how can anyone judge what is a genuine case or simply a bad day. I have a completely irrational reaction to crashing kitchenware, bicycle bells and I’m rubbish as a car passenger all of which may be PTSD symptoms. So many Vietnam vets were unable to re-assimilate after coming home many went back to SE Asia where they felt more at ease.Chapter 19One mystery of WWII is revealed in this chapter — well it’s a possibility I couldn’t let pass by. Sometimes the joy of writing a historical novel is the actual events were so exciting, you just place your characters in the middle of it all and let the story tell itself. What was the mystery? Well there’s only one way to find out - and it's FREE.

    McALISTER’S WAY VOLUME 09FREE Weekly Serialisation - Chapters 16 & 17A Young Adult Action and Adventure Story for Baby BoomersChapter 16I had some fun writing chapter with Monty teasing Angela at every opportunity. I’d never thought about the origins of a Big-Mac but it didn’t take much digging to find out, so I thought I share that information with you in this chapter.Chapter 17Take-off for float-planes is a lot trickier than land-bases planes. The water surface acts like glue and a huge amount of drag has to be overcome before the plane becomes airborne. It’s like water-skiing — once you’re planing it’s easy to jump above the surface. This chapter introduces Sim Long Li, for whom I have a special affection. Although I nearly went crazy getting his accent right and changing his ‘Rs’ for ‘Ls’.Richard Marman, Author, Sunshine Coast, Australia==============KEYWORDS/TAGS: McAlister’s Way, action, adventure, Angela Holyman, Zach, military, helicopters, choppers, DC3, Dakota, Gooney Bird, soldiers, airmen, attack, New South Wales, Australia, Sydney, Merimbula, plane, flight, fly, Young Adult, YA, explore, discover, MIA, Missing In Action, surrender, WWII, war, WW2, Tropic of Capricorn, Vietnam, Korea, Indo China, , Ailan, airstrip, Asian, beach, coral, daddy, Daiman-Sikmanmeri, Danny McAlister, fish, girls, Goose, Graham, hospital, island, Japanese, jetty, Kago, Kagotaun, Lae, landing, medical, Montgomery, Monty, plane, sea, shack, shirring, shore, supplies, surged, tidal, tsunami, volcano, war, wave

    Zach McAlister’s mother is sick and due to go into hospital for an operation. To “get him out the way” his father puts him on a flight to Merimbula, New South Wales, Australia where he is met by his Grandfather Danny McAlister.Out on his Grandfather’s ranch, or what’s left of it, it didn’t take Zach long to become bored silly. Hunting around for things to do, he finds a box of old photos and a strip of six medals hidden away. The photos were mostly dog-eared and ragged at the edges. Mostly they were of young blokes hanging around tanks and military stuff, and there were lots of choppers. You know, those beat up ones you see in all the war movies. When he looked closer he realised that most of the guys in the photos didn’t look much older than Zach himself! And then there were the letters from a woman named Angela.He takes the box to his Grandfather and asks him about the medals and the photos, and that’s where our story starts, well kind off.KEYWORDS/TAGS: McAlister’s Way, action, adventure, Zach, Danny, military, helicopters, choppers, soldiers, airmen, boarding school, priests, child abuse, attack, New South Wales, Australia, Sydney, Merimbula, plane, flight, fly, Young Adult, YA, explore, discover, New Guinea, CMF, enlist, Kodoka Track, MIA, Missing In Action, Japanese surrender, WWII, war, WW2, Tropic of Capricorn, Rockhampton,

    MCALISTER’S WAY FREE Weekly SerialisationVolume 7 Chapters 12 — 13A Young Adult Action and Adventure Story for Baby BoomersChapter 12The first time I flew to New Guinea as a Hercules C-130 co-pilot I was pretty excited, anticipating the spectacular views. It was pouring with rain when we landed at Port Moresby to refuel. We flew to Lae in cloud and spent the night there. The weather was the same on the return flight so I didn’t get to see at thing. Fortunately I often flew to PNG and got to see the mountains on many other occasions.Chapter 13I have fond memories of visiting Goroka, Papua New Guinea. We always brought back coffee which was in great demand at the RAAF Base in Richmond NSW. Although right on the equator, New Guinea Highland towns like Goroka and Mt. Hagen were over 1,500 metres / 4,920 feet above sea level and about 5 degrees cooler than Port Moresby — about 25°C all year round.Richard Marman, Author, Sunshine Coast, Australia==============DOWNLOAD LINKSFORMATS: ePub, Kindle & PDFFor the FREE DOWNLOADS of Vols 1 through 6, go to https://www.facebook.com/McAlistersAdventures/==============KEYWORDS/TAGS: McAlister’s Way, action, adventure, Zach, military, helicopters, choppers, DC3, Dakota, Gooney Bird, soldiers, airmen, attack, New South Wales, Australia, Sydney, Merimbula, plane, flight, fly, Young Adult, YA, explore, discover, abroad, Angela, action, adventure, Danny, MIA, Missing In Action, Japanese surrender, WWII, war, WW2, Tropic of Capricorn, Vietnam, Korea, , air, , airborne, airspeed, aviation, canoes, cockpit, coffee, control, couple, engines, fly, found, gold, Goose, Goroka, Guinea, Holyman, hull, Jeep, Jim, jungle, lightning, Montgomery, Monty, mountains, native, paddlers, people, plane, police, pretty, raced, rain, river, roaring, screamed, speed, stop, straight, surface, surged, take-off, Taylor, throttles, time, upriver, valley, village, villagers, warriors, water, Yerima

I remember snorkelling on the reef off Madang. It wasn’t until I came back to the beach I saw the ‘Beware of Crocodiles’ sign which faced seawards. The ‘are-see’ gag actually happened on a flight across the United States.Chapter 11When I was a school kid I hated study and research, but now I love it because it leads you to unexpected places. I’d never heard of the Tuskegee Red Tails, before writing McAlister’s Way.Richard Marman, Author, Sunshine Coast==============For the FREE DOWNLOADS of Vols 1 through 5, go to https://www.facebook.com/McAlistersAdventures/==============KEYWORDS/TAGS: McAlister’s Way, action, adventure, Zach, military, helicopters, choppers, DC3, Dakota, Gooney Bird, soldiers, airmen, attack, New South Wales, Australia, Sydney, Merimbula, plane, flight, fly, Young Adult, YA, explore, discover, abroad, air, airspeed, Angela, boat, calm, canoes, , All-Black, American, Angela Holyman, appear, Army, believe, Chennault, Christian, Corps, cyclone, Danny McAlister, fishing, Flight school, God, Goose, gunny, islands, lieutenant, Mad, man, military, Montgomery, Monty, New Guinea, niggers, Pacific, pilot, plane, planes, Port Moresby, sharks, village, villagers, war, water, yoke

    MCALISTER’S WAY FREE Weekly Serialisation Vol. 02 – Chapters 2 and 3A Young Adult Action and Adventure storyDanny gets into big trouble in Chapters 2 & 3. I’m not going to give you a synopsis, you can download it for FREE and read it for yourselves. However, a couple of things inspired parts of these chapters.Chapter 2My RAAF (Royal Australian Air Force) buddy, Wing Commander ‘Trackless’ Millsom, restored a 1940s Buick from a bare chassis and it was the inspiration for the get-away car in this chapter. I remember the floor in Trackless’ two spare bedrooms covered with chrome-plate parts for ages. His missus, Cherril, was very patient.Chapter 3Burning sugar-cane prior to harvest no longer occurs in Australia, but I’ve stood next to a cane-fire south of Townsville and it’s an awesome experience. The noise, heat and flames are truly daunting. I flew passenger jets up and down Eastern Australia and the cane-fires were a spectacular sight at night. The setting for this chapter came from those images.Richard Marman, Author==============KEYWORDS/TAGS: McAlister’s Way, action, adventure, Zach, Danny, military, helicopters, choppers, soldiers, airmen, boarding school, priests, child abuse, attack, New South Wales, Australia, Sydney, Merimbula, plane, flight, fly, Young Adult, YA, explore, discover, , altar, Arty, Brisbane, Buick, cane-cutting, car, chapel, Colin, Danny, Desmond, disappear, embankment, freight, Gertrude, Giovanni, Gulf of Carpentaria, Lenny, Mackay, Monsignor, night, Noemi, Northern Rattler, plantation, police, railway, Ricci, river, Rockhampton, School, Signor, Sister, snakes, St. Ursicinus, Statue, sugar cane, town, train, water
