Wow! I have seen authors improve as they add more books to their backlist. But Heathen's Creek: Vampire's Prison is an improvement over its predecessor (Haunted Love) in every imaginable way. Don't get me wrong. I liked Haunted Love, despite the fact ...more

The Martian Diaries Volume 2: Lake on the Moon did not go in the direction that I expected. The first book in this series offered a window into what may have happened after the events of HG Wells' classic. It did a wonderful job setting a similar ton ...more

I am a big fan of "The War of the Worlds" by HG Wells, so naturally a fanfic late sequel sounded appealing to me. I was very impressed with how well the author was able to write in Wells' style without completely emulating it. There's enough of Wilbu ...more

Some of my favorite parts of Tolkien's books would be when the action stopped and the characters would gather and share either a song or a poem with one another. It revealed so much about the characters, as well as the history of the lands and always ...more
