On Gods Homor by D.C. Juris

In “On God's Honor” by D.C. Juris we have an angel being sent to earth to protect a human named Nathan Scott. The angel is doing everything he can to just do his job and not fall for Nathan.  In regards to this story being a GLBT genre I felt that the story was to rushed and could have been expanded regarding the characters and the background. This author has talent if he just practiced it more in his writing he would accomplish a much better rating than just this mediocre one.

The Chill of Evil by M.A. Harkert

The Chill of Evil” by M.A. Harkert is the story of a woman and a haunted house which is very evil because of the spectres that live there.

I found the character of Sara to be great at times and at other times to be dull. The ending is different than I thought it would be, but I thought the author could have done more with the characters at the climax of the story.

This story is plain in its overall presentation.

Overall all it is a decent read for the light horror readers out there who enjoy books without all the gore and blood.

The Guns of Mars by Martin T. Ingham

In The Guns of Mars by Martin T. Ingham we have a man named Morgan Asher who is a part of a colonization on the planet Mars. He soon finds out not everything is as it seems. He realizes that he might have to fight for what he believes in.



There were times that I thought this story was moving so slowly without any indication that something better was coming along.

At first look I thought this was just a regular science fiction book but, as I dug deeper into the book I realized that the underlying message is about how easy it is to go with the flow and forget to fight for our rights that we have in America. I feel that people would get a great lesson from this novel about the ebb and flow of people and their opinions and actions.

Dreamweek by Viviane Brentanos is a wonderful romance about Izabella Stevens who works at Dreams which is a private island for those who need to get away from their world.

David Wells is an actor who is desperate to get away. He finds Izzy interesting and finds ways to get her to be with him. I really thought that this book was fantastic. I was so engrossed in this book that I forgot to do my other work for the day!!

Any woman that loves a good romance will love this book!

Herb Trader

In Herb Trader by A.R.Torsone we have a background look inside the marijuana trade. We see how one man was involved in a big treachery scheme in the world that he lived in.

I found the writing of this book to be intense and I could not put the book down. A. R Torsone gives so much background that you feel like you are there and a part of it all. Anyone that would like to see what sometimes happens in the world of marijuana distribution will find this book interesting and informative

A memoir with a magnitude of honesty is a story about A.R. Torsone’s life as such. If there was such a rating as 5+ bookmarks I would have enjoyed rating this novel as such.

Quest for Atlantis

In The Quest for Atlantis, edited by Jessy Marie Roberts and Alvia J Roberts and authored by various authors, is a collection of ten short stories that make you leave this world only to enter another. I found that some backgrounds were deep in their meanings and quite in-depth. At times some of characters seemed very real to me. I could not just pick one story as a favorite as they were all equally good. I can think of a few teenagers that would read this book. The collaboration between authors is quite remarkable in and of itself because getting various authors together in one project like this takes great patience and time and the tome shows that many authors took that time and effort in creating The Quest for Atlantis. They all worked as one quite well I might add! If you love to get deeply involved in a world while reading a novel or short stories then these short stories combined will keep you entertained for quite some time.

Suffer The Children by Sara Townsend

In “Suffer the Children” by Sara Jane Townsend we have a chilling story of three young adults looking for answers as to why some young adults have gone missing. As they start finding out the answers the more dangerous it becomes for Simon, Carrie and Leanne.

I don’t normally read horror as it’s not my favorite genre, however this novel kept my interest and was not too gory for my taste. It is a well written book that has various degrees of suspense with a little mystery thrown into the mix. I would recommend this book for the Stephen King fans!
