Empath by Becca J. Campbell is a great example of how to write an excellent adventure thriller. It has all the parts necessary to grab you by the seat of your pants and keep you glued to the book and this is exactly what it did to me.

The author did an excellent job of storytelling. She was able to weave a tail of intrigue and mystery involving, murder, heroes with special gifts, and action packed adventure. The book was easy to follow even with all the twist and turns. I soon found myself totally involved in the story.

Becca J. Campbell did a great job of developing characters that were both believable and real to life. It was easy to identify in the heroes and the heroine of the story. I was able to follow each character and grow close to them as the story progress.

I really like reading Empath by Becca J. Campbell and I highly recommend it to all readers.

Touching the Clouds by Bonnie Leon is an exciting, action packed adventure tale of Kate Evans, a bush pilot in the wilds of Alaskan during the depression era. I totally was captivated by this book.

The author did an excellent job of developing each character and their strengths and weaknesses. It was easy to follow them and get involved in their story. You could feel the emotion from each character.

The storyline was well developed and easy to follow. I love the way the Bonnie Leon’s writing style made you feel you were there, like smelling the bacon sizzling. She painted a picture of both a beautiful Alaska and a harsh unforgiving Alaska.

Another nice part of the book was her ability to weave a Christian message into the story without sounding to religious. It was a great book to read.

I really enjoyed Touching the Clouds by Bonnie Leon and look forward to reading other books in the series.

I highly recommend this book to all readers.

Daimones by Massimo Marino is a post-apocalyptic book with a slightly different take on the storyline. It was a great read and I found it hard to put down once I started reading the book.

The author is an excellent story teller, weaving a tail of survival which was well thoughtout and developed. The story was deep but it was also easy to follow. I often found myself pondering what he said and thinking wow.

I really enjoyed the characters. They were very believable and easy to relate to. Massimo Marino did a great job of developing them and relating them to the storyline.

This was a great read and I really enjoyed it.

I highly recommend Daimones by Massimo Marino.

I just finished reading “In Her Name: First Contact” by Michael R. Hicks and I am trying to catch my breath. From the moment I started reading until the last period in the book it was non-stop action and adventure. This is space opera at its very best.

Michael R. Hicks did an excellent job developing the storyline and staying true to it throughout the book. It was easy to get into the story because of his story development. His details of the alien society and psyche lead to a greater understanding of what drove them in their conquest. The battle scenes were both exciting and believable, keeping me on the edge of my seat.

It was easy to identify with the characters with the way the author developed their stories. Whether human or alien, each character stayed true to their role in the storyline and was easy to follow.  Another important attribute is the heroes were everyday characters and not an unbelievable “superhero.”

I really enjoyed losing myself in this story and found it hard to put down.  There are several books in this series by Michael R. Hicks and I will be reading more of them.

I highly recommend “In Her Name: First Contact” by Michael R. Hicks.

“Story in the Stars” by Yvonne Anderson is an excellent example of great science fiction writing. The storyline is well developed and easy to follow. At the same time it is full of deep ideas and themes which cause you to think and ponder. The story and the adventure moved at a steady pace and kept my interest. The book was hard to put down.

The characters are well developed and believable. I found myself identifying with the male lead and his skepticism. This is a sign of a good book when you can place yourself into the story and become a part of the adventure.

The underlying Christian theme in an outer space, science fiction, background left me with one question. Why not?

I highly recommend this book for all ages.

This book was hard to put down.
