I am a fact person, and it takes a lot for me to ‘believe’ when reading any type of Fantasy/Sci-Fi/Time Travel. This author is one of a handful where I can ‘believe’ the story. As is the style of Anderson, you are immediately enmeshed in a beautifully described world and characters. Anderson writes in full … Continue reading Ulrik by Wendy L. Anderson

The Stash by Benjamin Bradley
While the author has labeled this a YA book, it could easily hold its own against adult thrillers. I am very hesitant writing this review because there are some beautiful twists and I know as soon as I say that other readers will spend time looking for the twist instead of just letting themselves be … Continue reading The Stash by Benjamin Bradley
Operation Varsity Blues (A Kahale and Claude Mystery Book 3) by Timothy Baldwin
This is a great mystery series for middle and high schoolers. And frankly, I have also enjoyed it.

The series involves four friends who … Continue reading Operation Varsity Blues (A Kahale and Claude Mystery Book 3) by Timothy Baldwin
Season of the Spider: Copper Book 1 by JB Murray
Perfect for the season! Let me start by saying I previously did not have an issue with spiders – they did their thing, I did mine. Two tarantulas even lived in my game room for many years as pets of my son. Well, after reading this, my opinion has changed. STOMP them all!

H2LiftShips Volumes 1 & 2: a tech manual for a future – Imagine a world, exactly like ours, but different by Bob Freeman
This a very different kind of book. Think part tech manual, part science fiction, part alternative universe, and part I’m not sure what. I can see someone who is a sci-fi or tech nerd totally enjoying this book. It is well written and has a lot of good parts. Unfortunately for me, it is not … Continue reading H2LiftShips Volumes 1 & 2: a tech manual for a future – Imagine a world, exactly like ours, but different by Bob Freeman
Germs of War by Ketan Desai
This is a pulsating bioterrorism thriller. While the biological warfare is scary all on it’s own, the really frightening part is how normal the world surrounding the creation of the weapon is. The logical manner in which the author presents the entire scenario made me realize just how easily this could all happen. Told from … Continue reading Germs of War by Ketan Desai

The Angel Street Assassination (Bennett & DeMarko Mystery Series Book 5) by Aaron S Gallagher
Full disclosure – I love this series, I’ve read all of this series and I have had the privilege of editing the last couple books in this series (see dedication!). When the author told me this book would be a bit of a wrap up for the drama and angst that has been Harry & … Continue reading The Angel Street Assassination (Bennett & DeMarko Mystery Series Book 5) by Aaron S Gallagher
The Last Ny-Failen: Book Five in the Kingdom of Jior Series By Wendy L. Anderson
I have been waiting for this book with anticipation and a bit of sadness. I knew the author planned to end the series with this, the fifth book. While I love the world and characters she had created, I am sad to see them end. However, I can appreciate an author who knows how to … Continue reading The Last Ny-Failen: Book Five in the Kingdom of Jior Series By Wendy L. Anderson
