ZeQuest (The Quest Saga book 2) by Dhayaa Anbajagan is another excellent book in the sci-fi genre. It is very fast paced and full of action.

Since this book is a novella it is easy to read but unlike many short books it does not leave you wanting on its particular storyline. The only thing you want is the next book in the series. The storyline is well defined and easy to follow.

Having met the characters in the first book of The Quest Saga, I felt I already knew them. It was fun to watch them to continue to grow and mature in this book. They are all very real and believable.

I really enjoyed ZeQuest by Dhayaa Anbajagan and I highly recommend this book and series to all readers.

The Kalarthri: The Way to Freedom Book One by H. M. Clarke is a very good fantasy book which I found hard to put down. It was full of adventure and action. This book is a YA novel but good for all ages.

The author developed a storyline which was both believable and realistic. It never wondered off into something which did not make sense. I found it easy to follow and get into the story.

H. M. Clarke's characters made the story. They were very easy to identify with. This made for good reading and adventure.
I liked The Kalarthri by H. M. Clarke and recommend this book to all readers.

Evaluations of the Tribe by Raphyel M. Jordan is a good sci-fi read that I enjoyed getting into. Though taking place in an alien culture it had a lot of similarity to today's world and the challenges of youth growing up.

The author did a great job of developing a story that was interest and fun to read. I really liked how she wove a moral theme into the background of a very good storyline.

Raphyel M. Jorden's characters were well developed and deep. I found them easy to identify with and follow.

I enjoyed Evaluations of the Tribe by Raphyel M. Jordan and recommend this book to all readers.

A. B. Whelan and her Fields of Elysium series has done it again with City of Shame (Parts 1 & 2). This is an excellent adventure into the world of fantasy, sci-fi and intrigue that will keep you glued to it pages.

I really like this series of books and how the author keeps building the story, adding more plot twist and storyline with each chapter. A. B. Whelan's storytelling style makes City of Shame come alive and allows the readers to become so absorb into the story they become part of the events occurring on page.

A. B. Whelan has developed a cast of characters that are both believable and easy to identify with. I really like the way that they have grown and matured as the story has.

I really liked City of Shame by A. B. Whelan and I highly recommend this book to all age groups.

Bernice Fisher has created a cast of characters that are easy to identify with and follow. I found myself following each of them and holding my breath as their story developed.

Having read the first three installments of the Everville series I was looking forward the fourth book. The Fall of Brackenbone (Everville #4) by Roy Huff was worth the wait. It is a fast paced adventure that is full of action and intrigue.

The author has done an outstanding job of continuing the adventures of our hero, Owen, in this next installment. You can see Owen and each of the characters mature and grow stronger as the series continues. Roy Huff has done an excellent job of developing characters that are easy to follow and identify with.

I really liked the way Roy Huff has developed his storyline. It is action packed and keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout the book. The plot is constantly growing and twisting, but it is easy to follow. I found myself getting absorbed into the story and becoming an unseen extra with our hero through his adventures.

I really liked The Fall of Brackenbone by Roy Huff and I highly recommend this book to all readers.

Sometimes you need to take a step back and read a good heartwarming story about family. A Room of My Own by Ann Tatlock is just such a book that will take you back to just such a world.

The author has done an excellent job of developing a coming of age story of a young girl in the 1930's. While living through the hard years of the depression we see this family come together. The story captured my heart and I really had a hard time taking a reading break once I started.

Ann Tatlock's characters are well develop and very easy to identify with. They were so real I found myself falling deep into the story and becoming an unseen character, following along in the background. I love the storytelling style of Ann Tatlock and how she created characters and a storyline that flow together so wonderful.

I really loved A Room of My Own by Ann Tatlock and I highly recommend this book to all readers.

Are you in the mood for a great sci-fi book? Then The Star Agency by R.E. Weber is the book for you. This YA book as it has it all, action, adventure and space opera and will keep you glued to its pages.

The author did a great job of developing a story that reflected the insecurities of youth and the curiosity needed to overcome them. There were plenty of plot twist and action to keep the reader hooked throughout the book. It was very easy to get into the storyline and become a part of the tale.

I really like the way R.E. Weber developed his cast of characters. I found them very realistic and easy to follow. Throughout the story you could watch our hero grow and mature as adventure mounted.

I really enjoyed reading The Star Agency by R.E. Weber and highly recommend this book to all readers.

The Dragon's Egg by H.B. Bolton is the third book in the Relics of Mysticus series and it continues in the fast paced, high adventure style of the first two books. I could not put the book down when I started reading it.

The author is a great storyteller and has developed a tale which is both realistic and easy to follow. It will never let you catch your breath. Just when you think you got it another plot twist occurs and off you go again.

I really like H.B. Bolton's characters. They are very real to life and easy to identify with. I found myself caught up in the story and following along with our heroes while cheering them on.

I really like The Dragon's Egg by H.B. Bolton and I highly recommend this book to all ages.
