Great cover and an intriguing premise.
I'm delighted to include Patty Jansen's Ambassador 1: Seeing Red among my "select few." Deftly and swiftly, her beginning shifts into high, machine-gunning intriquing clues vis a vis later reveals. One knows just enough about what's going on to continue reading without scratching one's head, but not enough to make the whole book a fait accompli. Quick immersion in tight, realistic action promises a great read.
No matter what Patty Jansen writes, there is always that underlying personality that makes her books interesting AND there are her sometimes wildly imaginative worlds that forgo the bounds of what we all know and expect. They give us something entertaining and surprising. And she is Australian. If that comment doesn't make sense then you will have to just read her stories to see what I mean. It is meant in a good way.
Incredible work by an author I truly admire!
Very intriguing! This is promising to be very interesting series... Keep it coming, Patty!

Surrender (a preview) Chris Baum
A hairy bachelor (Bigfoot) decides to set off on a dangerous quest to find his long lost kin. He knows the journey will be fraught with danger because he knows he and his family are on the endangered list—a constant struggle to survive. But like an adage he once read in a book, “nothing ventured, nothing gained,” he is steadfast to not give up on his goal. Fortunately, and unexpectedly, he gets some assistance from two animals, one of whom is far bigger in his faith than his physical size. PoBo encounters many obstacles along the way, and his own faith is tested repeatedly as time runs out to fulfill his quest. What he at first thinks is the true meaning of his journey becomes redefined.
When we’re broken and we realize we are not in complete control, it's time to SURRENDER.

The Leprechaun Wars
The Leprechaun Wars Wes Snowden
"The Leprechaun Wars by author Wes Snowden is a mystical leap into the mind of a master storyteller. Fluidly moving between the world of magic and the world of men, this is a classic Emerald Isle adventure tale of one young man’s journey through revenge and romance, with sinister enemies around every cruel corner, and more than enough temptations to stray from his path. Written in a timeless voice that is both formal and flexible, there is a good balance of youthful whimsy and fantasy action. The depth of world-building and the energetic pace of the story make The Leprechaun Wars a treat for any fantasy fan." Self-Publishing Review, ★★★★
Couldn't put this story and ended up reading it far into the night. The day to day running of care facilities is interesting with the fascinating characters weaved into the story. Not just a good thriller, but touching, too.
I am really enjoying this book. As I read, the scene plays in my mind which makes it hard to put down. The story has gripped me for sure.

Vietnam was Hell, and this story brings readers into the heart of the jungle to experience what our brave men in uniform endured during that horrific eight - year - old conflict.
Martin E. Silenus shares his humorous essays about what the way life should be for a hard working male. Not too long, not too short, and definitely entertaining. Reading this is like having a beer and venting with your buddies. Ah, good times!
This sounds like the kind of story that belongs on the big screen because upheavals like these are visually amazing. That's why I want to read it. I want to see if it's a brain workout for the imagination to add those visuals.
This series looks so cool! It may be the next series I didn't realize I needed in my life. Looking forward to checking it out.
I love the cover and title. Cool.
ENHANCERS: The League of Twelve
ENHANCERS: The League of Twelve K, Matthews N. Fishfish
If your sibling had a super power, would you be envious or proud?
Would you accept an invitation to help save an entire race from extinction by opening a magic portal for them? And most importantly, can you keep a secret?
Rejected as a League member long ago, Marcus Shea is plotting to destroy The League of Twelve and gain control of the portal for himself. He freed a demon from nearly a century’s entombment to aid him, but now the demon has witches and geist on his side and his own destructive agenda.
The Immortals who govern The League of Twelve decided to grant three of their siblings the ability to enhance each faction leader’s abilities and aid them in their battles.
Will the addition of League Enhancers give the League members the edge they need, or will Marcus prevail?

A daunting task of astrology meets speculation, not in abstract, like Aleister Crowley once did, but in everydaylife words we all can understand! K, Matthews and N. Fishfish go for their very own, unique blend of the literal and the symbolical about the 12 astrological houses aka star signs, and embed it into their own alternative reality. There seems to be loads of thrill, the kind, which only proverbial reading between the lines, comparing, if authors and readers come to the same conclusions, can deliver! Splendid idea.
I love this take on the zodiac signs and how they gift magic and open portals! Such an intriguing concept -- can't wait!
Cool premise. Love the cover.
A great way of looking at star signs and turning it into real life adventure
Riveting. A portal to another world. If you like fantasy and magical realism, "Bloodlines" will be right up your alley!

Overweight fish finger addicted ninja gardeners? Samurai ghosts? What's not to love! If you're a keen Robert Rankin fan, I'd recommend giving this book a read.

Carefully written. Instantly immersive, I very much enjoyed this intriguing novella. Highly recommend!
Sounds intense - bring it on!
I'm a sucker for a good cover, but between that and the blurb, I'm very enticed. Definitely adding to my TBR list.
This book sounds rather touching, which makes it stand out. Love the concept.
Love the grunge of the cover! Can't wait to read the story behind it!
Lost Friday
Lost Friday Michael Bronte
It’s September 25th, and the entire town of Sea Beach, New Jersey, has no recollection of what happened to Friday the 24th. Reporter Johnny Pappas is among the baffled residents, as is police chief Roy Mulroney. The evidence indicates they’ve been visited by futuristic time travelers from the International Counter Terrorist Organization. In the future, time travel becomes a huge geopolitical weapon, enabling those who control the technology to manipulate history so that important events fall to their favor. The influence extends all the way to the White House.
Johnny has three objectives: cover the story as a reporter, win the romantic attention of fellow reporter Kelli Remington, and rescue David Robelle from the terrorists. Oh yeah, he’d also like to win a Pulitzer.

Fasten your seat belt! J.W. Elliot's Recalibration may only be novellette-length, but you might not survive the excitement were it longer. It's a fantastically well-written race through a landscape that does the Action-Adventure genre proud.
OMG, this sounds interesting.

D.A.R.I.A. BOOK FOUR
D.A.R.I.A. BOOK FOUR Martin E. Silenus
D.A.R.I.A. is a super human Artificial Intelligence Artilect entity that learns, recognizes, monitors, controls, evaluates, and recommends at levels that humans can only envy. Matt, Frosty and Daria have successfully concluded an extraction plan with the US Government to discontinue participation in their black ops. With money not an issue Daria is keen to further her investigation and knowledge of being human. The Geo-synchronous orbiting Trade Station where Renavatio Ltd could provide a human clone into which Daria’s mind and intelligence can be downloaded is her focused destination. Unfortunately our intrepid team of humans and AI Artilects has no idea of the horrors awaiting them. D.A.R.I.A. Book Four is the fourth book in this exciting series of Matt Southam and Daria the sentient AI.
Vietnam was Hell, and this story brings readers into the heart of the jungle to experience what our brave men in uniform endured during that horrific eight - year - old conflict.
Martin E. Silenus shares his humorous essays about what the way life should be for a hard working male. Not too long, not too short, and definitely entertaining. Reading this is like having a beer and venting with your buddies. Ah, good times!
This sounds like the kind of story that belongs on the big screen because upheavals like these are visually amazing. That's why I want to read it. I want to see if it's a brain workout for the imagination to add those visuals.
This series looks so cool! It may be the next series I didn't realize I needed in my life. Looking forward to checking it out.
I love the cover and title. Cool.

For Alasdair Shaw's Independence, fasten your seatbelts...assuming they're still there and you can still scarf up enough of the remaining oxygen to power your muscles.
This is one great space series. I read all four of the books in a matter of one weekend. Hope more is to come...
I love a good space battle and this author did not disappoint. And so many twists and turns you almost need a road map to finish this engrossing read.

BLOODLINES: The League of Twelve
BLOODLINES: The League of Twelve K, Matthews N. Fishfish
What's your sign? What if your birth sign was more than a cliché blurb in the newspaper? What if, instead, you were fated to inherit supernatural powers and the responsibility of safeguarding otherworldly beings?
Sebastian Shea, a new member of The League of Twelve, has always known he would inherit the Cancer astral key from his father and use it to open a portal to another world. What he doesn’t know is what will be waiting for him when he returns home.
Attacked by Marcus, his father’s identical twin, and left for dead, Sebastian knows his only chance to live long enough to regain his key and take revenge is to make it to the City of Radiance.
Will Sebastian survive to get retribution? Will the other league members rally in time or will Marcus take even more from them?

Will Sebastian survive to get retribution? Will the other league members rally in time or will Marcus take even more from them?
A daunting task of astrology meets speculation, not in abstract, like Aleister Crowley once did, but in everydaylife words we all can understand! K, Matthews and N. Fishfish go for their very own, unique blend of the literal and the symbolical about the 12 astrological houses aka star signs, and embed it into their own alternative reality. There seems to be loads of thrill, the kind, which only proverbial reading between the lines, comparing, if authors and readers come to the same conclusions, can deliver! Splendid idea.
I love this take on the zodiac signs and how they gift magic and open portals! Such an intriguing concept -- can't wait!
Cool premise. Love the cover.
A great way of looking at star signs and turning it into real life adventure
Riveting. A portal to another world. If you like fantasy and magical realism, "Bloodlines" will be right up your alley!

Endearing antiheroes, titillating dark fantasy warriors and a heartbreaking, magical tale of survival against insurmountable odds. This will be unlike anything you’ve ever read.
She was an unapologetically feral hit woman for a Clan of immortals, and sometimes just a girl in love with a boy destined to be her Handler. The only thing standing between them was cannibalism and intimacy induced amnesia. What could go wrong?

A prisoner, a secret he can't remember, and the military force that will destroy planets to get their hands on it.
When Fabio Velazquez arrives on the secretive military base on Jupiter's moon Io, he knows two things: one, that he's had his memories erased and two, that he has a secret. Except because of point one, he can't remember what point two is.
The portents aren't good: he's hated by his fellow soldiers, responsible for "the greatest f***-up in military history", traitor and human guinea pig. Yet, he managed to be trusted with a secret so big that the military has almost killed him and still haven't gotten their hands on it. Where is it, and who does it belong to?

Great cover and an intriguing premise.
I'm delighted to include Patty Jansen's Ambassador 1: Seeing Red among my "select few." Deftly and swiftly, her beginning shifts into high, machine-gunning intriquing clues vis a vis later reveals. One knows just enough about what's going on to continue reading without scratching one's head, but not enough to make the whole book a fait accompli. Quick immersion in tight, realistic action promises a great read.
No matter what Patty Jansen writes, there is always that underlying personality that makes her books interesting AND there are her sometimes wildly imaginative worlds that forgo the bounds of what we all know and expect. They give us something entertaining and surprising. And she is Australian. If that comment doesn't make sense then you will have to just read her stories to see what I mean. It is meant in a good way.
Incredible work by an author I truly admire!
Very intriguing! This is promising to be very interesting series... Keep it coming, Patty!

Ever felt like the rug got swept from under you…? I have enough to deal with: Quantum Physics class is stupid hard, I got my knee dislocated again in Sphere, and No-Face insists on showing up where he's not wanted.
Now I keep seeing some strange girl around, but when I tell my friends about it, she disappears before they can see her.
UPDATE: Sometimes I wish I'd never met her. Even if everything sucked sometimes, at least it made sense. But now that she's shown me what's really going on, I need to get off this ship - fast! Hopefully, in one piece.
Will Seven be able to escape the Sky Drifter before it’s too late?

The land and its people are corrupted. The Sachem, chief of the Unified Tribes, is to blame.
It is this conviction that drives Annilasia and Delilee to risk their lives. Afraid of the aether magic he wields, they enact a subtler scheme: kidnap his wife. In her place, Delilee will pretend to be the chieftess and spy on the Sachem.

J. Scott Coatsworth's "The Last Run" includes sensuous, compellingly exotic, fantasy worldbuilding with a deft enough feel for suspense to leave the reader knowing things the characters do not.
I'm always a sucker for a space odyssey story! And a great cover to boot!
J. Scott Coatsworth writes amazing space fiction, surprising you with his ideas, drawing you into the imaginative world and making you feel desperately for the characters. World building is believable, the dialogue flows and the story is compelling. I can't say more without giving too much away. Highly recommended.
J. Scott Coatsworth is a master world builder. He tells unique stories with diverse characters and a splash of magic.

Code of Rainbow: Soaring Flame and the Dragon...
Code of Rainbow: Soaring Flame and the Dragon-transcending Magimal Weiqi Wang
This is the first book of a teen fantasy book series that nurtures the bloom of MAGIC in the soil of SCIENCE - something rarely attempted. The transition from magic to science will be bit by bit, so the early books do read like a "mainstream" magic fantasy.
Soarame has a pair of special eyes. He can see magic elements in this world, which are supposed to be invisible. This enviable gift of his could reveal the truth of the world, but it also puts him in danger.
Many animals in this world possess magic power, so they are called “magimals” - dragons as examples. Soarame fortunately got a baby magimal as his best friend, but they got into troubles together - troubles that were a lot bigger than dragons.
Could they survive?

Nothing like a thriller when the plan falls apart and the heroes have to wing it! Makes it all the harder for the reader to guess what is going to happen...
Fast and enjoyable.
beautiful cover :)
I felt like I was on Mars, the real Mars, and felt the desperation that isolated settlers will experience. Great read
Big screen material! This talented author brings the reader into a new world where adventure awaits at every turn. The descriptions are well though out, the characters pop off of the page. Don't miss this one!
Monticelli's original Italian has been translated to English for her Red Desert series, giving a charming flavor to the prose. Her characters are 3d, and her hard sci-fi setting is researched impeccably. Novella-length book one, "Point of no return," serves as an introduction, constructing the hooks that power future volumes and ramping up the tension and mystery.

Friends since their orphanage childhood, Joel “Ridge” Breckinridge and Garrett
“Rett” Kennard rose through the ranks of the Landrian army together, from
teenaged conscripts to seasoned fighters. Together, they became the most feared
team of assassins in Landria, surviving longer that most in their profession by virtue of excellent fighting skills, legendary bravado, peerless strategy, and an uncanny
synchronicity.
When wandering mystic Yefim Makary becomes the darling of disenchanted
aristocrats, Rett and Ridge fear Makary—or the Witch Lord, as his followers call
him—is a threat to the crown. As treasonous whispers spread, Ridge and Rett
go rogue to stop the threat, save the kingdom and protect the king—while landing
on the “Most Wanted” list themselves!

She writes stories that you can't put down. A wonderful imagination coupled with a love of history.
You can't go wrong with a story set in the Chronicles of the Necromancer world! I love her characters and you get sucked in from the first chapter!
Gail Z Martin never disappoints. Her books are fast-paced, roiling adventures that leave you wanting more.
I recently had the pleasure of reading Gail Z. Martin's The Summoner, the first installment of the Chronicles of the Necromancer. I enjoyed it so much that I immediately grabbed Scourge, the first book in her Darkhurst series, off the shelf at my local bookstore. Now I have TWO new series to finish reading!
If you enjoy fantasy, give this a chance. Prepare to be entertained for hours by a gripping plot, compelling characters, and a unique world.
A great story for fans of epic fantasy.

The God Makers
The God Makers Guy Estes
The only ones who fall harder than gods are those who presume to create them.
The unnatural monsters of the Shingora were designed to be perfect killing machines. Aleena and Baezha, master warrior and adept sorceress, barely defeated them over a year ago. But the experience left them crushed by guilt—while they saved many people, they failed others.
Now they learn that a group called the God Makers was responsible for creating those aberrations, and the sisters have a single goal: put them out of business. Permanently.
But that goal is not as simple as it seems. The sisters are hobbled by their sense of failure. The God Makers have made their creations even deadlier and intend to unleash them on the populace. They also want to create the ultimate abominations―by experimenting on the sisters.
To save their people and their family from unstoppable killing machines, Aleena and Baezha must first save themselves from the God Makers’ experiments.

I wrote this to save the universe, but it wasn't my idea. This was an assignment from Bob, who may be God. Bob made me do this. The only choice I had was what to write about, so I'm telling you about the woman I love and the first time we saved the universe. This means telling you about every time we saved the universe in between the day we met until the end of this book, at which point we'll save the universe again, if everything goes according to plan, which it rarely does.
If you enjoy a little chaos, a little time inside the squishy maze of a human brain, a little taste of emotionally compromised writing, you may want to read this exercise in confusion. I can’t promise you’ll enjoy my musings or rants or punchlines, but I can promise you this: Life is a run-on sentence.
