The Forger by Paul Watkins
This book has been setting in my TBR pile for at least 3 years. I bought this book because of the cover (we’ll get back to that) and description. Set in Paris at the beginning of World War II, this book had all the elements of a great Historical Fiction. Throw in an American artist … Continue reading The Forger by Paul Watkins
The First Conception by Nesly Clerge
I kept seeing the great reviews and awards for this author’s other books but had not read them - only placed them on my “wish” to read pile.

I was hoping for more information before a time when Homo sapiens had a cognitive revolution and populated the globe. The author presents ideas … Continue reading Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Noah Harari

This is a well written and presented story of a futuristic virtual reality. When one of the main characters is dying, her brain, memories, feelings etc … Continue reading Aaru by David Meredith
Justifiable Homicide by Jeffrey Warren
I had the pleasure of meeting this author at the Tucson Book Festival. He greeted me by saying he had all 5 star reviews. So, the cynic in me came out. I rarely give 5 stars. In my eyes that’s perfect or pretty darn close and new Indie Authors writing 5 star books are rare. … Continue reading Justifiable Homicide by Jeffrey Warren

The author guides you along with information and … Continue reading The Highway of Life by Kiyoshi Fish
