Book 101 Review

David Cary

D.L. Cary | Faith-Fueled Suspense Novelist Unmasking Evil in The Veil Chronicles

D.L. Cary is a faith-fueled suspense novelist who detonates the boundaries of clean fiction.

His breakout thriller Maria’s Shadow thrusts readers into the perilous journey of a trafficked young mother who, less than two months pregnant, vows to outwit a powerful cabal to save her unborn son and expose their crimes.

The danger escalates in The Veil Strikes—Book 2 of The Veil Chronicles—where a newly sanctioned, off-the-books task force assembles on a Texas ranch with a single mandate: root out the corruption strangling America’s highest institutions, no matter the cost.

Cary’s work ignites high-octane action, redemptive faith, and razor-sharp social commentary into stories that leave readers breathless yet hopeful, proving that courage and conviction can still prevail over darkness.

Matthew Dickson

Founder of Mind Aid, the world's first website with all the groups helping people with mental illness in developing countries on one site; first person with schizophrenia to bicycle across Canada

I had an average life growing up in a small town in Canada, and then out of nowhere I decided to bicycle across Canada in the middle of university.

I completed the trip in 1992, but two years later I developed schizophrenia. My dreams were shattered and my only goal was to save my life and get my health back.

Once I started recovery, I noticed a small improvement in my mental health every single week and after about 3 decades I successfully recovered.

I bicycled across Canada again in 2023, becoming the first person with the disease to do so!

I want to tell people that the disease is not a death sentence and some people do recover from it. Who knows? Maybe you will recover from it!

Always stay hopeful! You never know what tomorrow may bring!

I also want to tell people they are capable of so much more than they think, and to not wait to be a super-confident person before you take action on your goals.

By taking small actions over time, the actions will give you small boosts of confidence.

Actions give you confidence! Don't wait for the confidence before you take action!

Like building a brick wall, each action, each brick, will give you confidence that will add up over time. Who knows what you may be able to accomplish in the future!

In 2018 I made the world's first website with all the groups helping people with mental illness in developing countries on one site, www.MindAid.ca.

This is a cause most people don't think about, let alone know where to go to donate.

But after mental health started being talked about during the 2020 pandemic, if there was ever a time this cause could take off, it is now!

I know many people would donate to this cause, and I encourage people to make it and Mind Aid mainstream conversation.

Listeners also come away from my talks with a lot of tools to improve their own mental health. I've learned some pretty effective tips that I am so excited to share with others as they have helped me so much!

I would love to share them with your audience and help give them hope!

Every Mile Matters: Turning Triathlon Training Into Cancer Triumph

Every Mile Matters is a triumph of heart and soul in battling the demons of cancer. Jeffrey Reynolds has captured each defining moment of his cancer journey with honesty, passion, and remarkable clarity. Through his story, he teaches us powerful life lessons - and more importantly, how to live them daily. His defining moments at the IRONMAN finish line gave him the strength to fight on. His resilience, vulnerability, and relentless spirit remind us that the human will is stronger than any diagnosis. This book isn’t just about surviving cancer - it’s about reclaiming life and helping others to do the same. A must-read for anyone facing adversity or seeking inspiration to rise above it.”

- Mike Reilly, Voice of IRONMAN and author of Finding My Voice

“Dr. Jeff Reynolds' book is an important one for everyone, but especially for those who have been given “the diagnosis” that changes your life forever. I feel strongly that we are given 3 choices when going through a period of challenge or suffering. Succumb, Adapt, or Evolve. Jeff took the Evolve route and it has changed his life for the “BEST-ER.” Taking charge of your life is a choice, and he represents that greatest choice in this book.”

Dalton Sizemore

Biology with Heart, Humor, and a Drawl

I’m Dalton — a molecular biologist, science communicator, and caregiver. I hold a BS and MS in Cell and Molecular Biology from Appalachian State University, where I focused on cancer biology, virology, and immunology. My research explored how viruses like VSV might be used to disrupt the immune processes that help cancer metastasize. I also hold a graduate certificate in clinical psychology, which helps me bridge the gap between the science of the body and the realities of the human experience.

But the truth is, everything I’ve done in science is rooted in something far more personal.

I’m a survivor of childhood abuse. My father left when I was young, and my mother — who raised me on her own — endured two severely abusive relationships: one during my childhood, and another while I was in high school and starting college. Those years shaped me deeply. They taught me what it means to live in chaos and still push forward, to carry pain and still protect others, and to learn, even when nothing in your life feels safe.

While I was earning my degrees, I was also a full-time caregiver. My mom nearly died from a MRSA infection that turned into a kidney crisis. My grandmother is disabled and was one of the first people in the U.S. to receive an implantable defibrillator. My sister has a seizure disorder that renders her disabled. At 22, I was managing emergency care, making medical decisions, studying biochemistry and organic chemistry, and trying not to fall apart.
