Are Paid Book Reviews Worth it? Self published authors, beware.
Sadly, I have a poor opinion on paid reviews.
I sent off to one reviewer and I am certain from their response that they skim read a few pages only. Their comments showed that they hadn't read the story and had little understanding of the tale. They also made several glaring mistakes that showed they weren't familiar with the genre, fantasy. This is one of my biggest bugbears, that a paid reviewer m

“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
― The Fellowship of the Ring

A light from the shadows shall spring;

“The greatest tales, well told, awaken the fears and longings of the listeners. Each man hears a different story. Each is touched by it according to his inner self. The words go to the ear, but the true message travels straight to the spirit.”

Hi David nice to meet you as well. I see you write fantasy. That's great! Your books look very good. Hope you do well with them. Best Victoria www.themagicwarble.com
It's horror aimed at teens, but it's quite good. A little short though. I pretty much read each one in an evening. My son had them so I had 12 books to read so I didn't complain. I normally like a longer book though
Hi, thanks for the friendship - how's the weather in VA? Weather in VA has been cold but we had some nice weather a few weekends back - got some bik riding in.It's a little bit cold in the UK at the moment but we've had a few nice days. Sounds about the same as here.
Have you read Darren Shan? I've just read some of his, a bit short but not bad. Nope never had - what kind of stuff does he write?
