Ron Glick is an incredibly imaginative author, and I have had the pleasure and honor of reading and reviewing his other books, including Tarinel's Song, The Wizard in Wonderland, Dorothy Through the Looking Glass, One, and Two. I know he has some amazing plans for the rest of the books in his three current series, and I'm excited to see where it goes. Immortal's … [Read more...] about Ebook Review: Immortal’s Discord

Ebook Review: The Memory Box
I could not put The Memory Box down. Though the first few pages sound like a typical story about a bored housewife who never wanted to end up in the suburbs, a big mystery is soon revealed that leaves the reader constantly questioning what happens next, all the way until the end of the book. The Memory Box is a great thriller. The pacing is fast, especially with so many … [Read more...] about Ebook Review: The Memory Box

Book Review: The Curse of the Thrax
(This review contains some spoilers.) This book’s description does not do it justice. Mark Murphy’s The Curse of the Thrax is a well developed, often humorous, yet somewhat deep fantasy story about 14-year-old Jaykriss and his best friend and cousin, Marda. Jaykriss goes through many challenges as a young teenager. After the death of his father, he must protect his mother … [Read more...] about Book Review: The Curse of the Thrax
Ebook Review: The First Sunday
In addition to receiving a review copy of the ebook from the author, I interviewed R.J. Berry about her work. Read through the full post to learn about her inspiration, advice for indie authors, and future plans. From the very first sentence, it is clear that R.J. Berry has a deep love and respect for her grandmother. And in that sense, The First Sunday is very … [Read more...] about Ebook Review: The First Sunday
Ebook Review: Seeing Colette
As I was the ebook converter for this novel, I'm glad to review it. Seeing Colette is a beautifully written novella, with lyrical prose that provides vivid imagery. Every paragraph is pretty to read, such as this one from Part One of the book: As she spoke, he imagined a stone thrown into glistening water and could almost imagine the feel of a stone baked by the sun. She was … [Read more...] about Ebook Review: Seeing Colette
Ebook Review: Credara, Rise of the Kraylen
J E Henderson’s first book in The Credara Trilogy, Rise of the Kraylen, was a great start to the series. It’s billed as an epic tale of good versus evil and it really lives up to the hype. The battle is between God and his army of Sitcians, angel warriors, and Lucifer and his army of Kraylens, demonic, former angels. The Kraylens are banished to Earth after Lucifer is beaten … [Read more...] about Ebook Review: Credara, Rise of the Kraylen

Ebook Review: Dorothy Through the Looking Glass (Oz-Wonderland Series)
I have been waiting to read Dorothy Through the Looking Glass ever since I finished the first book in Ron Glick’s Oz-Wonderland Series, The Wizard in Wonderland. And book two does not disappoint. There is just as much intrigue as in the first book, and the plot thickens, as more characters’ roles in the stories are introduced. I don’t want to give too much away, but the … [Read more...] about Ebook Review: Dorothy Through the Looking Glass (Oz-Wonderland Series)
E-Book Review: A Dangerous Low
I liked A Dangerous Low, I really did. The prologue started out strong, with a tense, high-stakes action, life-or-death scene. And then I read on and found out that everything happens in seven days, which I knew meant the story would be exciting and impressive. The story is set in Atlanta, GA, and the protagonist is Assistant District Attorney Benjamin Howard, who is set to … [Read more...] about E-Book Review: A Dangerous Low

E-Book Review: Two
I loved Two. Having read all of Ron Glick’s fantasy novels in his multiple series, I can safely say that his writing and complex story telling abilities keep getting better and stronger. And they already started off strong. Two is (obviously) the second book in Glick’s The Godslayer Cycle series. While I did enjoy the first book, One, much of the book was spent setting up … [Read more...] about E-Book Review: Two
E-Book Review: Apocalypse
I met the author Justin Bruystens via Write or Read—he’s an alpha and beta tester who has provided invaluable feedback. When he told me the name of his e-book, I immediately purchased a copy. It sounded so cool—a bunch of apocalyptic short stories. I was not disappointed. Bruystens has a very eloquent style. His book is a mixture of short stories and poems, all loosely … [Read more...] about E-Book Review: Apocalypse
