A Young Adult Super Hero Series to Enjoy





This is an action-packed novel geared to entertain young adult and adult readers alike. Its hero is Michael Fleming, a teenage boy with special abilities. Although he has super powers, he is still a teenage boy that many young readers can relate to. J.P. Brewner crafts an exciting and well-narrated story that keeps you on your toes. It's the ultimate story of good versus evil. There's plenty of adventure and the writing is very detailed so you won't miss a beat. 

Michael must uncover the Trifecta's secrets while finding out who the traitor is within the organization. I enjoyed the characters and the character development. I was completely hooked the moment I began reading this book. I can't wait to read the next installment in this series. Michael Fleming is my favorite new super hero!

New Epic Fantasy Series


I am a huge fantasy buff , and I’m always on the lookout for a new book. I found this series and became instantly hooked. The Deathsworn Arc1 is the first book in a series of novels involving various mystical characters in search of a dragon slayer.  I would say it’s very similar to The Hobbit where you have a dynamic group of humans, dwarfs, elves, and a wizard traveling together towards a common goal. Or if you’re a fan of Game of Thrones there are plenty of dragons in this book. However, Deathsworn does have a unique story line involving a beautiful Empress and a mysterious set of six heart stones that the group is asked to retrieve.

I enjoyed the overall story of the book, and I’m interested to see how the group fares on their quest to return to the Empress. The book is well-crafted, imaginative, and reading it was effortless. I enjoyed the pictures at the beginning of the novel where the characters are introduced, and the map of Torea. I can’t wait to read the next installment of this new fantasy series.

Cute African Wildlife Children's Book


I got this book for my nephew and he really enjoyed it. This cute children's story is about a bunch of wild animals living in the Kalahari region of Southern Africa. The main character is a young egg-eater snake called Little Squirt. He sets off on a long and dangerous journey to the Chicken Farm in search of his missing dad, who was drawn there by reports of eggs too plentiful to count. Little Squirt encounters many adventures while searching for his dad, and even meets other wild animals. I love the happy ending of the story.

The book itself contains some adorable black and white illustrations. This is a great book for kids between the age of 7-10, which will teach them about animal wildlife and nature. Kids will meet aardvark, antelope, ostrich, honey badger, spring hare, lynx, lions and a small bird which leads humans to wild bees' nests. This is a great book for kids and it comes highly recommended.

Why Lying Works




I was first intrigued when I read the title of this book. We live in a world where everyone lies so we might as well accept the fact that people will lie to benefit themselves or someone else---this is the concept that the author discusses in his book. Not all lies are bad---sometimes people lie to spare someone else's feelings---but there are many reasons why people lie. And yet, as individuals we are influenced by the lies that people tell us.

There are actually some very insightful thoughts in this book. I like how the author, Brett Carter uses a lot of great quotes from very notable leaders in order to get his point across. He discusses the evolution of lying, from the moment we enter the world at birth, to the day we die. The book is an easy read and filled with a lot of wisdom. The quotes alone is reason enough to get this book. The author's take on lying is an interesting and though-provoking one. I recommend this book.

A Unique and Fascinating Fantasy Novel


                                                 

I'm a huge fan of the fantasy genre so this book really caught my attention when I was reading the synopsis. I just finished reading Armageddon and the 4th Timeline and I have to say, I was captivated from the beginning. 

This book is engaging and encourages the reader to probe some very complex and thought provoking questions regarding religion, science, war, and spirituality. This mystical fantasy includes themes such as the war on terror (making it a bit like a Tom Clancy or Vince Flynn novel), the teaching of spiritual principles, and touches upon time travel. Don Mardak writes a vivid and fascinating novel with great characters and a unique story line (compared to typical Armageddon-type books). 

If you're a fan of fantasy or science fiction, Armageddon and the 4th Timeline is highly recommended. Pick up the Kindle version and see for yourself what a well-written and intelligent read this is.

Hot New Erotic Romance Series

I have a new favorite erotic romance author, Aria Albright, who just published her first series, Scorched. In her first book, Scorched by You, Albright weaves a hot and steamy romance between the two main characters, Amelia and Zac. Their "run in" encounter in Las Vegas is just the tip of the iceberg. Their whirlwind romance continues in Los Angeles. I was instantly hooked, especially with all the drama and a new, hot leading man. Zac's character is all around sexy to the core. He's hot, edgy, passionate, slightly neurotic, and definitely mysterious. I haven't enjoyed a good erotic romance since finishing 50 Shades of Grey and the Crossfire series by Sylvia Day. 



What's intriguing is Zac's past. He can't forget his dark past, which results in a lot of friction between him and Amelia. Their relationship becomes strained and bad choices are made. There's also plenty of steamy erotic sex scenes. For a debut novel, I was thoroughly impressed by the depth of the story and the intriguing characters. 

You can purchase the Kindle version on Amazon.
