A Masterful, Compelling Work
This superb book succeeds on at least three levels. As an expository work, it plumbs the deep, rich traditions of works by Michener, or more recently, "A Perfect Storm". I felt supremely entertained, even as I learned a great deal about offshore sailing. It also tells a gripping story, and it draws us into the life of a family and its individual members. I cared deeply about these people, as ...

The Reckoning chronicles John Morrison's journey as he struggles to survive in a post apocalyptic world. His once imperfect life is now complicated by a strange sulfuric fog that pollutes the air and water and 'changes' people, ultimately killing them.

The Beast: A Reckoning with Depression

Putnam Adult, 1995

One of the best books abot Depression I have ever read
This is a book from the inside out, meaning the author writes well about the subject because it comes from within. I have read several books about depression, and this is the one that has impressed me the most. Honest, well-written, and it tells it like it is. At times I found myself disagreeing with the author's actions (but who am I to judge) as if she was a character (see, it reads like a good ...

good padawan gone bad
This is one of my favorite books. I always like books where good guys go bad. Xanatos was Qui-Gon Jinns former padawan. He already went to the dark side. When Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan Kenobi went on a mission to Telos Xanatos' home planet. They ran into a surprise. Xanatos was waiting for them. They fell into many of Xanatos' traps yet in the end of the book the jedi manages to put Xanatos in a ...

This book is something special!
I began Ms. Fewings novel in the early evening and finally finished around four in the morning. I was just unable to put it down until the very last page. She brings to us an entirely new take on the vampire genre. Her use of visualizations gives you a movie in your head.

Harvest House Pub, 1995

Excellent
This is probably my all-time favorite Christian novel. Huggins, who is now retired from law enforcement, is also an award-winning journalist. This is the story of a man who sought redemption and tried to leave his old life behind. This book is action-packed, gripping and spellbinding. It will pierce you to your very soul. Gage, our hero, is an exile in his own land, abandoned on a military ...

Timing is Everything
There are stories that are ponderous and meaningful. There are stories that are light and carefree. There are stories that are tedious and depressing. Then there are stories that you whip through (it's so easy to read), and at the end of it you nod, smile and say, "That was a neat story. That was a good story." Dead Reckoning IS the latter. It's a good, neat story. It is deft in its ...

Robert Bloch

Citadel, 1998

A Bloch Party
Robert Bloch's first volume of complete stories is gruesome fun. Some of his most famous and chilling short stories can be found in this collection. Many of these stories were translated into either film by Amicus productions (The House That Dripped Blood, Asylum, Torture Garden, Tales from the Crypt, etc.) or made into a radio play. Among the great stories contained are "Mannikins of Horror" ...

A can't-put-down read
Dead Reckoning is one smart story. Sandra K. Moore blends danger, romance, and mystery together in this gripping read. Chris Hampton is one smart heroine, too. Committed to rescuing her baby sister from her drug-lord husband as they bask on an uncharted island off the Florida keys, Chris is aided by a pair of hunky DEA agents who board her aging yacht. Even before they launch, an attempt is ...

Last of the Jedi series
This has been the best series. It takes me about a day to whip through these books. I love them, and I really love the Star Wars saga. Jude Watson has a fantastic style of writing, and even though the age group targeted is much (much) younger than I am, it doesn't stop me from total enjoyment. I am never dissatisfied with the plot, character development, or the writing. I would love a longer ...

Peers for Positive Encouragement and Parents for Direction
Before reviewing this book, you should know that it includes extremely foul language, very explicit descriptions of sex acts, and other material that exceed what you would find in an R rated movie. Dr. Taffel acknowledges this, but feels like it is important to conveying his message. I agree. Many aspects of this book could be describing when I was a teenager back in the 1960s. Dr. Taffel ...

Dorrance Publishing Co. Inc., 2007

A unique Western with plenty of action
If you like original Westerns, you'll like this book. The novel draws upon themes common to Westerns, such as revenge and justice, but it combines and twists them into a unique story. The ending in particular is quite original. It's not the stereotypical ride off into the sunset, but it's still fulfilling. Don't worry; there's still plenty of gunfights to keep the plot moving!

Reckoning...dead
Carter Crosby's first in a series book leaves you waiting for the second. A fast and mesmorizing tale of Russian Mafia, the tragedies of Afghanistan, plus a study of humans' fine line between souls - friendships and betrayals - make this book intriguing. Can't wait for #2!

A Happy Accident
I first came across Sniegoski's "Fallen" series by accident while working as a councelor at a Maine summer camp. It was the best thing ever. Ever since reading the first book, I've been officially hooked. "The Reckoning" continues with all the power and enticing action that started in the first book. It just keeps on going. I was beyond impatient to get the book, and very smug while ...

Up and coming author, Liam Galvin creates a genre all his own, interweaving mystery/ suspense, romance/ spiritualism, and a touch of murder and mahem to captivate even the toughest of readers.
