Writing has always been a fun and creative experience for me. With Peace Unknown being my first real dive into writing a full length novel, I can honestly say that I enjoyed every step of learning the process and creating something that others will hopefully enjoy. I'm determined to keep working at it, either by continuing the adventures of the characters in my current book(s), or developing new stories entirely.

As of February 2023 I am hard at work on the next book; continuing the story of Edward Brandt. The new book is expected to be bigger and serve as the second act of a trilogy in the arc of the characters story.

Wow. Just wow. What a book! I got roped in from the first pages and got hooked immediately. For being the author's first novel, Mr. Divine came out swinging. Great thriller story, great ending to the story, setting up for a sequel story with Edward Brandt, and I'll be waiting for it.

Take a chance and read this book!

Overall, the plot & storyline were good. I enjoyed them. But some of this was very slow moving for me. The more it talked about certain things, it just seemed to drag on. And it may just be a me thing. Like I said, overall, it was a good thrill.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
