The Bear That Fell From The Stars eBook Keith C Blackmore
I am a big fan of ninjas in general. I mean, the dudes can pop out of shadows and twist you into any number fatal positions or just stick a sharp object into you and you never see it coming.Unfortunately, most of the ninjas out there on television and movies are mostly a bunch of Star Trek red shirts in black formal wear. Their sole purpose in life is to be knocked down by Daredevil, Wolverine, Bruce Lee or - god help us - the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
I know that you could argue that they were ninjas in their own right - but I am sorry - they're turtles, dang it - and not even those proper gooey caramel-filled, pecan-ated Turtles that sometimes haunt my dreams late at night.
But THE BEAR THAT FELL FROM THE STARS changes all that.
It is a straight forward story that would make an absolutely rock-solid sci-fi adventure flick - like say PREDATOR or THE TERMINATOR. It seems this pack of scallywag aliens accidentally abduct themselves and honest-to-katana ninja. It seems they want to study the human race to judge their ripeness for conquest.
Well - turns out that this ninja dude is about as UNRIPE as you can get.
Keith Blackmore does an amazing job of creating the alien race and there is a lot of room for growth there - but the real star of the show is Jimmy "Kuma" Kazaka.
Jimmy is a ninja.
He is about one of the toughest ninjas you could imagine.
I mean - the dude would make The Wolverine wet his yellow-and-brown panties - he is that tough.
Jimmy's nickname is "Bear" - which is what "Kuma" apparently means.
I don't really know if "Kuma" means "Bear" or not - but I wasn't going to argue with a dude who can make Wolverine make lemonade in his BVD's.
I'm not going to tell you much more than that - except this is the sort of an adventure that ought to be read at a gallop. Sit yourself down with a cold bottle of beer - or better yet some Sake - and some sweet and sour pretzels - and chew right through this nasty little yarn. It is the perfect reading material for a rainy Saturday when there isn't much more to do than to sit around on the back stoop, sharpening your katana.
If this story was a baseball, Blackmore just knocked it out of the park and clean clear over the highest stratovolcano of Mount Fuji. If you are holding out for a hero - look no longer.

The Bear That Fell From The Stars eBook Keith C Blackmore Reviews
What a concept! Keith, please expand this into a 500 page novel. Would also make one hell of a sci-fi action movie. I have read close to 750 science fiction stories and I would put this in the top 25. Yeah, it’s really good. I just wish there was more of it.
Blackmore is the best sci-fi, horror, fantasy writer out there in my opinion. This novella combines the deadly, silent killer who is the ninja assassin with alien abduction. I know you are thinking what the heck? But Blackmore does it. He is really original and therefore unpredictable as a writer. Everything Blackmore does has his own twist, his own cool version of the badasses, the monsters, and those who get caught in the middle of the two. And you're drawn into these worlds he creates and are able to see them with total clarity. This one is another winner by Blackmore.
Blackmore's Bear is one of those novels that falls squarely in the odd canon of literary fusion bringing disparate worlds together in a collision of time and technology. The novella is short and obvious, as is the prose and action. The ending is fairly predictable and not at all original, but it doesn't detract from the story itself which is a high-octane, katana-fest where a trained ninja meets an unwitting, sadistic little cadre of aliens. The writing is terse and ragged, but is serviceable and actually seems to mimic the actions of our anti-hero. While short on plot, the work is long on action. If you have trouble keeping focused and staying with a book, this is the one for you. Even if you don't, you'll have fun for the few minutes it takes to read it.
Quite an interesting premise. In this novella, fast paced, bareboned to the essentials, the dangerous life form on board the starcraft is a human, and a highly trained, stealthy Ninja, at that.
It is a fun, unpretentious, read and the ending is a superb surprise. Could it have been something like that ?, one ponders.
One fault, imho, that should be avoided ( and which is recurrent in the genre nowadays ) is the antropomorphization of things. Why should the machinery on board the starcraft contain "Computers"? Would such an advanced civilization not have another name for the gadgets?
Joke aside, a quick paced, funny and entertaining read and, again, with a sublime finnish.
I'm not a huge fan of Japanese warrior culture stories, so for me this story started out slowly. That said, the backstory is short and to the point. It's also essential in understanding the nature of the protagonist (and even the antagonist, to a lesser extent).
But when the ninja escapes, look out. The story moves like a bullet train. Once the action kicked in I couldn't put it down. There's no shortage of ass-kicking. I devoured this novella.
It's refreshing to see something so original. Ninja vs. aliens. I wish I'd thought of it.
The writing is tight yet descriptive. The plot is clever and engaging. The editing is good. It's a high-quality release.
I very much liked this story. I think maybe you will too.
Fast paced and well written. Bloody and exciting with just enough glimpses at alien technology to make it plausible. I enjoyed it thoroughly. Ninja vs aliens was just as cool as I thought it would from start too finish, contrasting and comparing the clashing cultures with a satisfying though predictable ending. Five stars from me. I'll be reading more from this author
A very well done novella. The pace was good, the description of the characters was solid, and the story interesting & entertaining. I would have liked more background on the main character and his master, but the story moved quickly thru that beginning into the heart of the tale so there wasn't a lot of background. Overall, a good action story with enough detail and imagination to be both exciting and intriguing. I'm looking at other offerings by the author based on the strength of this story.
