review
Dragon's Curse by H. L. Burke is a very good fantasy novel that is full of action and adventure. With dragons, wizards, knights and sorcery how can you go wrong.

The storyline developed by the author is full of plot twist and intrigue which left me guessing throughout the story as to what was going to happen next. About half way through the book the tale took on a surprising turn and the story came alive. I really liked the author's style of spinning a tale of intrigue and adventure.

H. L. Burke did an excellent job of developing characters that were easy to identify with. He provided the right about of background information on each to make the real and believable.

I really enjoyed reading Dragon's Curse by H. L. Burke and I highly recommend this book to all readers.

review
Hidden (Dragonlands, Book 1) by Megg Jensen is a good fantasy novel with action and intrigue, enough to keep you reading.

The author did a good job developing a tale which had several surprises and plot twist which made for good reading. After a slow start the storyline picked up speed and was very interesting.

Megg Jensen's characters could have been deeper and a little more believable but they were still easy to follow.

I liked the Hidden by Megg Jensen and recommend this book.

review
Valley of the Kings: The 18th Dynasty by Terrance Coffey is a great historical fiction. This book is fast paced and full of excitement. I had a hard time putting it down.

The author has done a great job of taking historical facts and turning them into an epic historical novel full of adventure and he captured the intrigue of the Egyptian court. The author's storytelling style made the book come alive and I could smell the smells and see the sights clearly in my mind.

I really liked how Terrance Coffey made the characters of the book come alive. They did not seem like the figures of history books, but they seemed real and believable. It was fun getting into the storyline and following along with the characters.

I really liked Valley of the Kings: The 18th Dynasty by Terrance Coffey and I high recommend this book to all readers.

review
Earth Alone by Daniel Arenson is a science fiction dystopia novel of earth's recovery and fighting back after a devastating attach on the planet by aliens. It is well written and interesting.

The storyline is well developed and deep, with a lot of the hero's thoughts. Though interesting this slowed the book down and caused it to drag, in my opinion.

The main characters in the story were will develop and likeable. I did like the background he provided for them, but at times it was too much.

I had trouble getting into Earth Alone by Daniel Arenson, which may have just been me.

review
Code Breakers: Beta by Colin F. Barnes continues where the first book, Alpha, left off. The fast paced action continues to grow in intensity.

The book seamlessly continues the storyline and adventure of the code writers from the first book in the series. As the story grows so does the intrigue and excitement of the book. In this book we get deeper into the background of the tale and learn more about the "family" causing it to become harder to put the book down. Code Breakers: Beta captured me.

I really liked the characters created by Colin F. Barnes for this series. As the tale moved forward I began to learn more about them and they came alive. Their strengths and character made the story real

I enjoyed reading Code Breakers: Beta by Colin F. Barnes and I highly recommend this book to all readers.

 

(I read this book as part of a 5 book sci-fi boxset: To The Stars and Back)
