Latest Book Reviews

This was the book that got me into this series. Found it on my mom's book shelf about 20 years ago. I enjoyed the conflicts and the characters. Honestly if you like space operas, star trek and cats you'll like this series. It is broken into parts and takes place immediately after the first ends. I enjoyed getting to know more about the Sholans and their Talents.

First book in a great series. It's a bit rough as it is her first book and just starting to flesh out the world's but over all is a good read. If you like space operas and cats you should read it. I've read it numerous times over the years and it still holds up for me. The first time being about 20 years ago when I had found the second in the series on my mom's book shelf. Read it loved it hunted down the rest of the series

Back on great. Snograss still manages to confuse. I'm loving it.

I was really surprised by how much I enjoyed this book. I love Schaefer's Daniel Faust series but am not so keen on the Harmony Black books so I was prepared for the possibility that it wasn't going to grab me.

What I wasn't prepared for was that I literally didn't want to put the book down, so I stayed up all through the night and read the book in one go. The main protagonists (no ... (read more)

An Alien Invasion story with a difference, rather than destroy the planet they try to buy it.

There is a certain similarity with The Body Snatchers by Jack Finney but there is also an element of social commentary and its a great pity it was never made into a film back in the 1960s as it could have been one of the Film Noir Sci-Fi classics.

Recommended to lovers of the original Twilight Zone series.

Very much liked this version of the lore, told by the Trickster himself how he was betrayed by Odin in the begin with and how they all were deceived in the end, what led to the destruction of Asgard and to death to it's gods.

I just love this.

Those were five cracking good stories, this time a mixture of philosophy, psychology and fiction.
The stories follow one of the astronauts which are spread over the galaxy to man and maintain beacons. We get to know a person who is extremely lonely and the ways how a human mind can work in this situation.
I found those stories highly instructive and fascinating, sometimes funny, sometimes sad - even disturbing. I'm really glad that I've found those books and would like to recommend it to you all.

This is the series that started my love of reading. Every fantasy novel I've read, probably EVERY novel I've read, stems from this book/series.

Kate Orman never fails to impress me, as I was reading her first novel but I got the sudden Urge to read Return of the Living Dad. And I love the book, It's well based, and also a bit of a fun read. This Book exploits a bit to Bernice Summerfield's - or simply just as Benny - Past, by touching on her family by introducing her father Issac Summerfield. This introduce an Alien Race from the Television Story from the Classic Era so that is cool as well.  

Ending aside Divergent series has been quite typical y/ya dystopia trilogy. But since the ending did surprise me by not following the mainstream I'll give the extra half-star.

It was an amazing story definitely is a 5 out of 5 for me.

I read and loved the first book when it was first released. I wanted more after that without expecting it, pleasantly surprised when the second book came out then eagerly waiting for the others after that. It was a long, hard wait that I kept up with, going so far as to join the forum(s) in eager hope of news when I thought the wait too much. I am a patient person, it was enough to see the author interact with her fans in the forum. This wait was near torture when I discovered this was to be ... (read more)

Good, but not as good as the first one. This one seems to be the infamous second act where everything that could go wrong does go wrong.

Does it make it bad? No

Is it annoying? Hell yeah! Practically nothing good happens to anyone!

This book is about humanitys eternal mistake: Conquer and call it helping. Crush anyone with a different view, because this is how it's always been.

There's something compelling about this band of old farts, used-to-be heros. Eames's story is a mix of borrowed easy jokes, old friendships that has it's cracks, yet still holds and actual meaning of friendshps and getting old after being an actual hero. And of course about that "One Last Job".

It's seems quite easy read, but if you're not carefull you easily find yourself in a mist of What is going on here?
