Guilty Money, by David Crosby (A Will Harper Thriller/Mystery) [Review]

“A comfortable attempt to address a real-world issue, but without much thrill or mystery.” Author David Crosby’s Will Harper series is very successful and includes eight novels. I picked up a box set of the first three books in the series to see what the fuss is about. I ended up reading book #2, Guilty … More Guilty Money, by David Crosby (A Will Harper Thriller/Mystery) [Review]

No Broomsticks Allowed, by Heather Harrison [Review]

“It drew me in and turned me on. A very clever, original, and exquisitely erotic story.” I don’t read a lot of romance, and was not even aware that Amazon has a category for “Paranormal Witches & Wizards Romance,” but No Broomsticks Allowed drew me in and turned me on. A very clever, original, and … More No Broomsticks Allowed, by Heather Harrison [Review]

Slip Out The Back Jack, by Willow Rose [Review]

A complex plot with a deliciously twisty ending Willow Rose weaves a complex plot of murder, abuse, and vigilante justice.

The Geomancer’s Apprentice, by Yin Leong [review]

A captivating tale of horror, ghosts, and Chinese mysticism This beautifully-written story of ghosts, supernatural monsters, and Chinese mysticism drew me in from the beginning because of Junie, the engaging heroine. Junie is searching to find her identity. She lacks self-confidence, is socially awkward, and has not made her parents proud – yet. She is … More The Geomancer’s Apprentice, by Yin Leong [review]

Overboard, by Sara Paretsky [Review]

“Many aspects of the overly complicated plot are not explained well.” V.I. Warshawski fans will get mostly what they expect from Sara Paretsky’s newest installment in the long-running series, Overboard. I’m a huge fan of Ms. Paretsky’s writing and V.I. as a character. The story is the usual high-energy, high-peril adventure through the back-streets of … More Overboard, by Sara Paretsky [Review]

The Oort Federation: To the Stars: The Second Oort Chronicle, by Robert Williscroft [Review]

A masterful expansion of the Oort Federation saga. To the Stars is the second installment in the Oort Federation series, and the sequel to The Icicle, which I read earlier this year. Like many Sci-Fi series, it is essential that you read book #1 before reading book #2. The characters, the villains, the construction of … More The Oort Federation: To the Stars: The Second Oort Chronicle, by Robert Williscroft [Review]

Rex, the Kid, the Whore, the Witch, and the Scientist, by David Myles Robinson [Review]

“Witty, funny, and extremely original. This book will take you on a crazy ride filled with adventure, sex, tequila, and intrigue. The author has a deliciously cynical sense of humor that permeates this unique novel. Strap in and enjoy! Your mileage may vary.” This irreverently funny and off-beat novel includes many elements you seldom see … More Rex, the Kid, the Whore, the Witch, and the Scientist, by David Myles Robinson [Review]
