Very good read
Alton Gansky's book "Zero-G" is an excellent novel. It involves a disaster about the space shuttle and the subsequent ramifications of that accident. I do not want to give plot details away, but let me say the characters are well developed, and realistic. The plot is well written and takes unexpected turns. The dialogue makes the characters even better. The one slight draw back I have ...

Outstanding sequel to Terminal Justice
Tarnished Image takes up where Terminal Justice left off. For that reason, I recommend reading the Terminal Justice first. In Tarnished Image, David is now the head of Barringston Relief. His character is further developed, and the story line is equally full of twists and action. It is top level entertainment with an uplifting message. I particularly like the way the author, Alton Gansky, ...

an interesting memorable work
In 1865 Virginia Union Army Lieutenant Jeremiah Tate and his men met and killed Confederate soldiers. The Northern military officer also killed a fundamentalist Confer date preacher holding a bible; the victim was known locally as THE BELL MESSENGER for he spread the Lord's Word to the soldiers. Before he died the preacher gave his bible to Tate along with a letter to his mother stating that a ...

Marked for Mercy (Ridgeline Mystery Series #1)

Controversial subject woven into great story
Marked for Mercy is a good solid mystery with compelling, likeable characters. It also treats the issue of euthanasia fairly, showing both pro and con perspectives. The author and main character are prolife, as am I, so I was happy that the prevailing thought was that euthanasia is wrong. Since reading A Ship Possessed and Vanished by the same author, I hurriedly ordered everything Gansky has ...

A great read--a thrilling ride
I don't know how Alton Gansky continues to do it, but his J D Stanton books always keep me turning pages as fast as I can. This well-crafted work was hard to put down. And don't make the mistake of trying to read the last fourth of the book when you're alone, late at night--you'll sleep with the lights on. I did. Here's hoping that there are more J D Stanton books hidden in Gansky's fertile ...

An explanation is due, but you might not believe me!
Well, Gansky brings back J.D. Stanton, retired Navy Captain, he takes us above sea level, and then really has us seeing stars! It isn't often that a follow up book is as good as the first, yet this is an exception. Both "A Ship Possessed" and "Vanished" deal in spiritual warfare, yet in different ways. Gansky takes a community of Roanoke II, and then most of it disappears. Why? Yeah, that is ...

Gansky writing
Very pleased! Fast delivery and packaged well. Pastor Gansky is a gifted writer and every one of his books has a twist I least expected. I wonder if his sermons are as interesting!

Gripping, powerful!
This was great! Alton Gansky is right up there with the greats, Ted Dekker, Frank Peretti, and so on. What made this a plus book for me was, I love submarine stuff! Right on, brother! Join retired Naval Captain, J.D. Stanton as he is called to investigate what looks to be a ghost ship. And it is a WWII sub at that! I like the demeanor of Stanton throughout the entire book. He's cool, calm under ...

The main course is frostbite! The appetizers are chills. Enjoy!
This is Perry Sachs book #2, so I realize that I'm a little bit behind on a few Gansky thrillers. I guess I always have some catching up to do. But this was great! For me it took a few pages for this to pick up, but once it did it happened rather nicely. So, if you happened to read "A Treasure Deep," then you can expect appearances from Jack Dyson, Gleason, and if you know Gansky's writing, a few ...

what fun amongst the twists and turns
I love how Gansky propels you in one direction and it sounds so reasonable and yet he has something up his sleeve. He is a master of compelling, turn-paging novels. I'm always eager to get into his books and this one pleased me as usual. Suspenceful and romantic, I couldn't wait to get back to it.

Think you've got it figured out? You don't!
This is the type of novel that keeps me coming back to Alton Gansky's work. When you think you finally see where this is going (ala Kevin Bowen's "Wil's Bones" or Paul Maier's "Skeleton in God's Closet"), you're wrong! The storyline keeps a fairly consistent pace throughout. You'll come up with a dozen theories as to what the "Treasure" in the title is, but by the end you'll realize you weren't ...

Director's Cut is a delicious slice of suspense!
Madison Glenn's beautiful cousin, Catherine Anderson, is in Santa Rita to star in a dinner theater production. Yet, when Catherine's chauffeur is found dead in her swimming pool, the curtain almost comes down on the performance. It seems that someone has written a few changes into the script that makes real life more lethal. Alton Gansky knows how to tell a great story and this book is no ...

Brilliantly written...

As CEO of Find Inc. she always had a lot to do and this day was no different - until she realized that one of the envelopes on her desk was ringing. When she opens the envelope and answers the phone inside, her ...

Thought provoking and thoroughly entertaining
How grand that I discovered Alton Gansky! After reading Vanished I quickly ordered everything he has written. Terminal Justice was great...I found it to be full of action, with lifelike characters. It posed some moral questions that added yet another dimension to the book. The protagonist is a minister whose wife left him for a member of the congregation. He was shattered emotionally, ...

Deeply Engrossing
This story follows Perry Sachs in his final adventure. He seeks to uncover the cause of a mysteious illness that claims the lives of his friends. It is an imaginative twist of the Gov. Conspiracy plot with the Supernatural Thriller plot. What highlights the tale is how unique and vivid the imagery is, from the strange demon inhabited caves to the surface of a toxic lake, Gansky captures the ...
