Excellent read.

Good series
I loved the Series and the authors way of bringing his characters to life. He did a pretty good job of not over using technology to replace character development and plot.

December 26, 2019The Heretic (The Templar Chronicles #2).Well written, fast-paced and entertaining I very much enjoyed my first read from author Joseph Nassise.
A Scream of Angels (The Templar Chronicles #2), I very much enjoyed my second read from author Joseph Nassise. I'd read The Heretic back in February of 2017 and recently was given an Audible copy of A Tear in the Sky (book 3), since it was so long since I'd read The Heretic it was worth re-reading so I bought the audio box set.
A Tear in the Sky (The Templar Chronicles #3), I very much enjoyed my third read from author Joseph Nassise.

Well-written, fast-paced and entertaining. I was given an Audible copy of this book & am voluntarily reviewing it. I was impressed and enjoyed the vocal variety & inflections of narrator Jarret Lemaster. I look forward to reading more in this series & from this author.

I Stumbled on this Series by Accident...
My friends all kid me that I'm a lightweight, I scream at commercials and movie trailers. I have no idea how I got to this point but, Wow! I am glad I did!
This Series has Rocked my World! Some of the Best writing I have ever ran across! The vivid imagery takes me to places I have never envisioned and will not soon forget. These characters are so in depth and invoke an excitement of Military Heroes while penetrating my heart, wrenching my gut and evoking intensely personal feelings. Not a kiss to be found (except perhaps a kiss of death, here and there and almost everywhere!) Yet still, the depth of a love story for all times is included.
This book has everything I love plus much more, to my complete surprise! I am a fan for life and look forward to finishing this series and jumping into Joseph Nassise other series.
What an Incredible job! Hope you keep cranking out more for All of your fans!

I really enjoyed getting three novels in one, that made for following the series that much more enjoyable because I liked the plot and the main characters so much. Its a well developed in-depth series that I found myself going back to again and again. I look forward to reading the rest of the books. I hope that it continues on with the full steam it carries through the first three books.

I read an eBook version if the Chronicles, and I have never seen so many errors in any printed work. Missing words, improper verb tense, misspellings, and other errors riddled the pages. While the plot was entertaining, the errors made it very difficult to enjoy the book.

Paige turning thriller
One of those "can't put it down thrillers." Good Story and well written other than numerous grammatical errors. Needed a good proofreading and editorial review prior to print.

Loved the series, wish Joseph would continue to write about this character, but a great read nonetheless.

Good story. A bit of head hopping and could definitely use some thorough editing, but good overall.
May 26, 2015
I'm unable to go further. Between the repetition & the grammar errors, I've had enough. 2 stars is all it gets

Good read! worth the price and more

February 26, 2018All the Templar Chronicles stories rather blur into one in my head, but they're a perfectly fine unambitious fairly-generic set of urban fantasies; sort of the UF equivalent of airport novel thrillers called The Omega Sanction or something. I appreciate that this is not praise that the author would much appreciate, but being a book that I don't bounce off from annoyance puts you in the top 30% of the class straight away.
