In the long run
5.0 out of 5 stars Beautifully observed
A wonderful story of relationships and running, beautifully observed.
Hideous Night
5.0 out of 5 stars A thoroughly entertaining book!
Verified Purchase.Reading this brilliant novel was just like riding a scary roller coaster! I found myself hanging on with an enjoyable sense of dread throughout the many thrilling plot twists and turns, as I the reader was propelled along with each new page towards what seemed like an unavoidably hideous climax. However, I needed to know what happened next so I devoured the book like the hungry monsters that are the villains of this extraordinary story!
This thoroughly entertaining book has reminded me how much fun reading good sci-fi can be and I will certainly be ordering the rest of Martyn Rhys Vaughan's back catalogue in the hope of experiencing similar thrilling adventures. In the meantime I will be reflecting on the writer's astute observations of the privilege of modern lifestyle choices and how flawed people can choose to be heroes when forced to fight seemingly overwhelming odds to save (a perhaps undeserving) humanity.
Magic Islands - Revised Edition
Magic Islands, by Irene Edwards, is a fantasy adventure centered around magic, wizardry, and adventure. The imagery painted by Edwards is absolutely stunning and contributes to the beauty of a well-crafted fantasy. Edwards’s young characters are relatable and full of life. The humor woven throughout this novel makes it not only more appealing but serves to create a fun read aloud for classrooms, as well.
Our Lady of Mumbles
Very enjoyable read, the characters were believable and the story took me back in time.
Unnecessary Reactions
5 Stars. Riveting read.
Excellent read, the author's descriptive writing really helps to visualise the scene. The unusual change of career for a portly middle aged school teacher, who gets involved in very strange activities keeps your attention. Recommended reading.
