Clive Algar has done it again with his book Journeys to the End of the World. This is an excellent book full of action, adventure and romance. Once I started reading this book I had trouble putting it down.

The author is an excellent storyteller and his way with words made the story come alive. I really loved the way he told a tale of three periods in history and brought them all together in the end.

Once again in this story, as in his previous two books I have read, his ability as a wordsmith puts you into the story. Whether on the farm in the early years or on the beach you could smell the smells and hear the sounds of the area, bringing them to life. His description of the war and its horrors was excellent. Without using all the graphic language the author made you feel all the emotions of the characters.

I really like the way Clive Algar developed his characters in the story. He brings them to life and makes them so believable. It is easy to get attached to them and identify with the main characters of the tale.

I really liked Journeys to the End of the World by Clive Algar and I highly recommend this book to all readers.

The Versailles Legacy by Lyn Alexander is an excellent historical fiction. If you like getting into a book and feeling a part of the story you will love this novel.

I loved the way the author continued to develop the storyline she had started in the first book, The Officer's Code. Germany has suffered through the post WW I years and Hitler is beginning to reunite the patriotic feeling in the German people. The story does an excellent job of following this theme through the lead characters and their emotional turmoil from all the changes they must face. With the author's writing style you will believe you are there.

Lyn Alexander has done a great job of continuing to develop her main characters. The hero continues to grow stronger even as he faces all the changes of this period of history. I really got into the characters as the author so vividly described them.

I really liked The Versailles Legacy by Lyn Alexander and I highly recommend this book and series.

The Officer’s Code by Lyn Alexander is an excellent historical novel full of action, adventure and romance. The further I got into the book the harder it was to put it down.

The author did a great job of developing a story that was easy to follow and real to life. I really like her writing style. It is so important, in this time of story, for the emotions to convey by the words to the reader and Lyn Alexander wrote just such a book.

The book was full of action and intrigue but the characters is what made the book so powerful. I found them to be so believable it was easy to put myself into the story and follow along. Once again the emotion written into the story was a powerful tool to captivate reader by bringing the characters to life.

I really enjoyed The Officer’s Code by Lyn Alexander and I highly recommend it to all readers.
