Damaged Beyond All Recognition
(Infinity's Trinity Series, Book 1)
At nineteen, Paul Tomenko won the sweepstakes and became a counterculture icon. Now, the stakes are cosmic. A genetic flaw has stripped humans of the ability to ascend through the Planes of Existence. Without a successor to replace a dying God, eternity itself is at risk. In an unusual love triangle with a brilliant geneticist and a hyper-intuitive novelist, Paul must navigate God’s library outside the universe to mend a broken afterlife. From neo-Neanderthals to celebrity figments, Paul’s journey is a mind-bending exploration of metaphysical survival. In a race against the end of forever, he discovers that saving the soul might just turn it inside out.

(A Memoir)
In a universe where power comes with a price, Paul Tomenko is a man redefined by his scars. Damaged and No Longer Under Warranty—the second installment in the Infinity’s Trinity series—propels readers into a high-stakes science fiction adventure where the stakes are nothing less than existence itself. Haunted by his past and overwhelmed by the weight of his own inabilities, Paul must navigate a world of superhuman strength and high-minded scientific mysteries. With its sharp wit, deep suspense, and unforgettable characters, the novel explores what happens when a hero must reach beyond his breaking point.
When a husband-and-wife research team from Nerazuria intercepts a mysterious transmission from Wormhole 2714, they are stunned by what they discover. The visual portion of the communique is unlike anything they have ever seen. Already exiled to the fringes of deep space following a failed experiment, the duo faces a life-altering choice: follow the rigid directives of the Presidium of Science or risk everything to uncover the astonishing truth. "The Light, The Dark, The In-Between" delivers a gripping speculative-fiction short story about curiosity and defiance. To succeed, the pair must outsmart a crew of androids programmed to stop them, proving that some secrets are worth the ultimate risk.
Damaged Right Out Of The Box is a humorous and wistful memoir that chronicles a life shaped by the improbable. The journey begins at birth, when a doctor’s forceps leave a permanent indentation on my forehead—symbolically marking me “damaged” from the start. The narrative follows my evolution from the son of Ukrainian immigrants to a newspaperman and space systems editor. Blending the ordinary with the extraordinary, I reflect on my Colorado roots, career shifts, and “flukish” successes that defined my path. It is an engaging, everyman tale told with the wit and perspective of a storyteller.
The Tatagonian Code
Humanity’s cosmic purge is underway, and our only hope is spectacularly underqualified. When ghostwriter Daniel Cadence uncovers Project Thanachronos at Pullman Laboratories, he discovers Earth is a pawn in a brutal war between two ancient alien factions: the synthetic Cybortics and the immaterial Energetics. Caught in the crossfire is Gofer, a reality-warping extraterrestrial entity with the power to unravel existence itself. To prevent the complete wipe of civilization, Daniel must navigate cosmic conspiracies, deadly simulation mechanics, and extraterrestrial politics. If he fails, humanity faces deletion. The clock is ticking ...
They caged the man, but they could not constrain his mind. Under house arrest, Beckett discovers an extraordinary metaphysical escape: his consciousness projects across the cosmos, willing a vibrant planet into existence. While endless human wars rage across centuries as mere fleeting moments against the backdrop of eternity, Beckett’s reality fractures between physical confinement and celestial architecture. As the boundary between creation and hallucination collapses, he must confront whether his mind has unlocked genuine godhood or a tragic psychological sanctuary.
