About the author
K. Alexander
3 books12 followersKaren Alexander lives in Johannesburg, South Africa. She has been entranced - and ensnared - by writing in one form or another for most of her life; from writing children's stories at the age of five to amuse her family, to stage plays in her late teens, to the inevitable bad poetry that coincided with first heartbreak. Though she occasionally dabbles in the other arts, writing remains her first love.
K Alexander is a very popular author at websites such as The Athenaeum. Deus ex Machina is her first published novel.

WOW!... just... WOW! I cud wax lyrical abt how well developed the characters in this where, the interesting story line or how well and funny the 2 mains played off each other. Its true but i wont really get into it. The whole think was unreal!! And the ending was really profound, had me a bit lost for a bit after i'd read the final words. I just kept thinking WOW!
Perhaps not the most detailed of reviews but sometimes you find a book that doesn't need need people going into great length about this and that. Sometimes you take a leap of faith on something based on nothing more than an intriguing cover and a few word and get left speechless. This is why i love to read.
