This is the third and final installment in the Emmett Casey Chronicles. While I have read all three, this is my favorite. As the main character, Emmett takes time to reflect on his life as a mature adult; the reader gets to really see this man for who he has always been - A good … Continue reading The Heretic by Michael Deeze

Shadows of Doubt (A Kahale and Claude Mystery Series Book 2) By Timothy R. Baldwin
As was established in the first book in this series, these teens have a lot going on. Mixing a mystery with teenage angst can be daunting but Baldwin does it with enough finesse to keep adults interested as well. This mixture of several subplots and teen flip flop emotions makes for a page turner. Buy … Continue reading Shadows of Doubt (A Kahale and Claude Mystery Series Book 2) By Timothy R. Baldwin
BLOWBACK (Detective “Cadillac” Holland Mystery Series Book 1) by H. Max Hiller
This dynamic start to what I think will be a great series that had me quickly swiping pages. Set in New Orleans, the area is a character and part of the plot adding an enjoyable dimension to the story. The story jumps the reader in the middle of Detective Holland’s life with some of the … Continue reading BLOWBACK (Detective “Cadillac” Holland Mystery Series Book 1) by H. Max Hiller
Blue Sail (The Iron Age of Piracy Book One) by Aaron S Gallagher
One of this author's most prominent talents is the development of his characters. They are fully formed people in every aspect and that is reflected his books. This time he outdid himself.

Looking For Laura (A Tracey Marks Mystery) by Ellen Shapiro
Bursting into the mystery genre, this PI/New Author has started an intriguing series with an independent female PI. Learning that the author is a “real” PI in New York, put this book at the top of my reading list.

21st Century Pulps Compiled by Scott A. Meehan
In all honesty, I edited this collection. Not just that but I kind of begged for the job. I met Scott at the Indie Book Fest in Orlando last summer. He told me about his plan to try and make a Pulp anthology, gathering a wide variety of authors. I spoke with Indies United Publishing … Continue reading 21st Century Pulps Compiled by Scott A.

Iron and the Arrow: Book Four in the Kingdom of Jior Series by Wendy L. Anderson
Having read all of this series, so far (the last book, Five being anxiously anticipated), it is always a joy to return to the land of Jior created by Wendy Anderson. This author has a way of weaving what at the base is a family saga into a love story that crosses all the barriers … Continue reading Iron and the Arrow: Book Four in the Kingdom of Jior Series by Wendy L. Anderson
The Diarrhea Diaries: Trump’s Tweets That Gives Us the Runs by Robert J. Emery
In my professional life I stay apolitical; however when this book crossed my desk I had to read it. A quick book to read, this author has collected and organized tweets posted by President Trump. As someone who stays on the fringe of social media and politics the amount and quality of tweets was surprising. … Continue reading The Diarrhea Diaries: Trump’s Tweets That Gives Us the Runs by Robert J. Emery
Ming the Merciless by Ralph Rotten
When I saw the author’s tag line on the cover was “Another steaming pile of crap from Ralph Rotten” and since I already read two other piles (books!) from this author, I grabbed this one. While Ralph describes himself as a degenerate asshole, I only see a riveting author who tells brilliant tales. With twists … Continue reading Ming the Merciless by Ralph Rotten
Nomad by Aaron S Gallagher
The characters that this author creates are always the draw for me. He has outdone himself in this book. The main character, Joshua or Nomad, is a good guy trying to do the right thing and looking for justice for his club (aka his family). While he is a “tough biker” inside, he is the … Continue reading Nomad by Aaron S Gallagher
