The Ballad of Persephone (The Anuk Chronicles) by Abdur R. Mohammad
I had the pleasure of reading another book from this series so when this one appeared, I jumped at the chance to see where the story was going next. Again, I give the same advice as my review of my previous read – make sure you are in intense reading mode. This author packs a … Continue reading The Ballad of Persephone (The Anuk Chronicles) by Abdur R. Mohammad
The Betrayal of Ka (Transprophetics #1) by Shea R. Oliver
This is not a light Sci-Fi book in all the good ways. As I read this I had the feeling that I was reading through a trilogy – there is that much contained in these 267 pages. Ka and his other characters took me back to when Sci-Fi was darker and more intense than a … Continue reading The Betrayal of Ka (Transprophetics #1) by Shea R. Oliver
Recursion by Blake Crouch
When an author you love, J. Todd Scott, recommends a book that you just got – it gets moved up in the reading pile. That was this book, and he was right. This mind bending story of a False Memory Syndrome had me pushing the limits on my self imposed reading limit over vacation. (Because … Continue reading Recursion by Blake Crouch
Kau D’varza: A story in the ChaosNova universe By Dave Noe
After reading a book I usually check the reviews. With this book, a reviewer commented that they felt like a fly on the wall. That was a very accurate description. The scenes from the various ships and during battles made me feel like I was there. The quick dialogue between characters also helps with the … Continue reading Kau D’varza: A story in the ChaosNova universe By Dave Noe
Rise of Villains (The Anuk Chronicles Book 2) by Abdur R. Mohammed
While this is the second book in this series, it does well as a stand-alone. This is an intense read with a lot going on, so bring your A-Game reading skills. There is a jump back in time about a third of the way into the book that gave some great information and clarified a … Continue reading Rise of Villains (The Anuk Chronicles Book 2) by Abdur R. Mohammed

I have a lot of respect for authors who are willing to listen to reviews. This author recently edited and republished this book, and issues mentioned by previous reviewers have now been taken care of. More importantly, what has emerged is a very fine story that is striking as well as compelling. Having read the … Continue reading Soyuz: The Final Flight by Harry A. Milman
The Crimson Deathbringer by Sean Robins
Aliens that pull pranks – I’m in! This Space Opera/Science Fiction is an incredibly quick paced read. While there are the usual many characters, worlds, ships, etc. to keep track of, this author does a great job of creating each and making the transitions easy to follow. I can’t imagine the book without any … Continue reading The Crimson Deathbringer by Sean Robins
The Day Gravity Became Irrelevant by Ralph Rotten
A few years ago I met this author at the Tucson Festival of Books and picked up the first book in his Calizona series. I loved the irony, sarcasm, and banter between his characters. So, when I saw he was offering this book as a one-day freebie – I jumped. Once again he showed me … Continue reading The Day Gravity Became Irrelevant by Ralph Rotten
The Wrong Stuff by Guy Thair
This was one of those books where the action is always going, and it is hard to decide where to stop when you need to get on with other things. Hannah Meredith is not your typical hero or adventure gal but that it just what she ends up having to be. The story has a … Continue reading The Wrong Stuff by Guy Thair
