Five Stars

This book is AMAZING! I cannot wait to read the second book!

Great Worlds

Very interesting & imaginative!

Highly recommended!

This book was purchased for my 12 year old daughter, her review is as follows: "I recently just finished reading Samantha Gollakner's Land of Arlenm. This is one of my favorite books because it keeps you guessing. I was on the edge of my seat through the whole story. I felt Samantha was very good at describing and giving details about the characters, which made it easy to picture them and their surroundings. I am really looking forward to reading the next world."

On the edge of my seat!!!!!!!

The imagination of this author is AMAZING!!!!! She keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout the entire book. The author's ability to pull you in and make you feel like you are part of the book, is one of my favorite things. I CAN NOT wait for the next book to come out.

Hmm...

pros: well written, has potential to be a good story, has potential for great, diverse characters, and interesting concept

cons: characters were not fleshed out, dialogue between characters could use a touch up, the logic and decision making sometimes felt confsusing

there were not many grammar, or spelling errors, which is a big relief for someone that reads a lot of indie authors. Ms. Gollakner, if you read this, keep going. You got an idea here that could be extremely entertaining!

Title: Veritas Morte

Language: English

Release date: 08-11-17

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 3 votes

Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Sci-Fi: Contemporary

Publisher's Summary:

Lucien Bandemyr, Crown Prince of the Qorathi Empire, looked forward to adventure, excitement, and glory from his first campaign outside of the Empire's star systems. Instead, he found frustration and betrayal, as an assassination attempt, coupled with an unexpected military catastrophe, put him squarely in the center of a galaxy-wide struggle for power.

With his father near death, his most trusted advisors not above suspicion, and a Republican-minded princess seemingly determined to set his mind awhirl, Lucien sets out to right the military situation, and discover the assassin's identity.

But he is young and inexperienced, and finding these answers could prove more costly than Lucien ever imagined.

Members Reviews:

Hope to see more of this universe.

Didn't want to this one to be over and hope this is just a glimpse of future work to come from Mr. Kingswood. This novella was full of interesting characters, had a gripping story (plenty of political intrigue), and hinted at a much larger universe. As I said, I didn't want it to end.

I really enjoyed Keith Michaelson's narration. Great voice, clean delivery, and this might sound odd, but his voice holds a sense of 'authority'. Not sure if that makes sense, but that is the best word I can come up with to describe it. I will definitely be checking out more of his work in the future.

Title: Once upon a Missing Time

Author: Philip Mantle

Narrator: Robin Drake

Format: Unabridged

Length: 5 hrs and 49 mins

Language: English

Release date: 08-11-17

Publisher: Flying Disk Press

Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Sci-Fi: Contemporary

Publisher's Summary:

Once upon a Missing Time is a powerful and emotional journey involving married couple Alan and Pamela Morrison and their teenage daughter Wendy. Alan is a teacher at the local high school, and his wife Pamela is a social worker for the local authority. One night, whilst driving back from their in-laws home near the rural North Yorkshire village of East Yardsley, the Morrison family encounter something that would change their lives and worldview forever. The Morrisons have a close encounter with something quite extraordinary. On arriving home, they discover nearly four hours of their lives - missing. Plagued by nightmarish shared dreams, the Morrison's look for answers for their missing time. Their search for answers threatens to tear the family apart, leaving them with lives that will never be the same again. Set in rural England in 1990, this was an era before the Internet and the digital age. The Morrison family search for answers, but it is a search that eventually ends in frustration and betrayal. This is not a story about alien visitation, but rather how a family try desperately to cope with a phenomenon that no one seems to understand. Although a work of fiction, Once upon a Missing Time is based on real-life close encounter cases from the UK. All of the characters in this drama are based on people who have either experienced this phenomena first hand or have been UFO investigators. The names, locations, and professions of all have been changed to protect the individuals concerned. Once you have heard Once upon a Missing Time, you will understand that the phrase "close encounter" was not just a figment of Steven Spielberg's imagination.

A long-time UFO investigator proves he can write compelling fiction

When I saw that one of Britain's most respected, renowned and dogged UFO investigators, Philip Mantle, had published a work of UFO fiction my first thoughts were, "Uh-ho."

That's because I have been down this road before with researchers famous in the UFO field, most notable the great Jacques Vallée, who a few years back took a turn at fiction with his novel "Fastwalker." It was pretty bloody awful.

Others in UFO or similar fields have also attempted a fictional turn with disastrous results, notably NASA astronaut Buzz Aldrin who wrote a fantastically boring science fiction novel called Encounter With Tiber - and I refuse to even speak of Graham Hancock's recent foray into fiction.

And so I was not only pleasantly surprised - but absolutely delighted by Mantle's, ONCE UPON A MISSING TIME. This is a terrific book that delivered everything I expected from a tale of close encounters with strange beings - but the plot also took unexpected turns which makes a work of depth and pragmatic integrity.

As far as I can tell, the story is based on a bona fide UFO abduction event known as the Aveley Abduction which occurred on a dark country road in West Essex in 1974. I believe the story was first reported in Flying Saucer Review by writer and long-time UFO investigator Andrew Collins. Collins also writes about the Aveley Abduction in his recent book, LightQuest.

I've also seen the story of the Aveley Abduction bounced around in the endless echo chamber of the Internet - often with details slightly altered and with the "names changed to protect the innocent" - but with the core of the story essentially in tact.

Title: Come Together

Author: Sandra Rains DeBusk

Narrator: Thomas Conder

Format: Unabridged

Length: 4 hrs and 25 mins

Language: English

Release date: 08-10-17

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 7 votes

Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Sci-Fi: Contemporary

Publisher's Summary:

The song, Come Together, played constantly for a whole day and night on the radio. Suddenly, the newscaster interrupted, and made an announcement that would send chills down my spine. "Listen up people, we are being attacked - not by someone, but by something! Run people, run and hide!" Then he was gone, and we were all on our own.

Members Reviews:

Best book I've read in a long time! Recommend!

I absolutely love it!

Sandra, screw the haters! This book is so well put together! I love love love it. I'm actually going to listen to it before work today.

It is so intriguing and keeps you on your toes.

Please keep doing what you're doing and never stop.

Besides the book, I love the kind of author you are.

I've looked you up and you're pretty well known. I met you in person once and you are the kindest soul. I hope people who read your books or listen to your books really tune into your personality and creativity behind the words you write. You are one of a kind.

Aliens!

This is SRDs first book if I'm correct. Good book and captures the realism in a situation such as this one.

Scary and believable

This audiobook tells the story of a world suddenly rocked by alien invasion, and the aliens are not here to negotiate. It centers around a typical American family and it's all the more convincing because it seems to walk through what such a thing would be like fairly realistically--I could imagine how frightening it would be if this happened in my neighborhood. There were a couple of times I couldn't quite keep track of minor details, but it was still a good story overall--that might have just been the distractions I get on my commute.

It's weird - the Beatles' "Come Together" was apparently an influence to the author and a theme to the book, but I kept thinking of the song "The Warning" by Nine Inch Nails - this had that kind of creepy feel to it.

Thomas Conder has an easy narrative style - his voice smoothly tells the story, with slight inflections to help me hear the different character voices, and he keeps the pace nice and even. It makes it easier to take in because he doesn't get caught up in the action and start reading faster. I like that. His voice also sounded really clear in my car on the highway, so the sound quality was really good.

loved it!

I really love every book Sandra writes. They really put me in mind of Goosebumps!

This was not a very good book.

I thought the whole thing was written by a high schooler. Plot was very weak as was the narrative in my opinion.

Publisher's Summary:

Genetically enhanced workers are the future of companies competing in the global marketplace. People need to be more intelligent, more capable...more.

Genetic perfection has a price: a brutal Darwinian contest of strength and cunning to determine which bloodlines will continue and dominate.

When Sarah Wheeler's Spawning Contest is rigged, her breeding and training will be put to the ultimate test - by an adversary who knows her every flaw and weakness, by a father whose dynastic ambitions know no bounds, and by a world that is ruthlessly selecting against human agency itself.

Members Reviews:

Disappointed but interesting concept

I hate to say this but I never got past the first few pages. Maybe it gets better, the concept is interesting but as I read I had the feeling it could've been better written.

Ok

I had a hard time with this book, seemed confused, not even sure what it was about for half the book.

Thought provoking and compelling

I don't read a lot of science fiction but the blurb of this book appealed so I requested it and I'm glad. "Spawning Ground" was compelling, intriguing, and provocative. Cockle pulls together various social, political, scientific, and financial trends and theories and weaves an engrossing, sometimes frightening story.

The world building was particularly interesting but it did leave me with some questions. I'd have liked to see or learn more about the shift in thinking and how the Executive Program came about. One weakness was the failure to address human development. Cognitive development especially was not addressed and much of what Cockle postulates and has his characters doing simply isn't possible. Presumably, technology took care of it or maybe the genetic coding but it was unclear and did weaken, for me anyway, the scientific underpinnings of the story. That, however, is my only big quibble and others may have no trouble suspending belief and buying into the insanely accelerated human development. Cockle's concept of True Love and the One was, quite honestly, frightening, and yet in some ways, a logical extension of our current perspective, at least in North America.

The characters are fleshed out; complex, multi-faceted, and morally gray. While I liked Sarah, our female protagonist, she had some unlikable traits and by the end of the story I wasn't sure I liked her at all but I was invested. I was rooting for her, most of the way. Cockle's writing drew me in until I was hooked. None of the characters were all bad or all good but ran the gamut. Warren was the closest to all good but even he was flawed. Those traits that made him good and likable were considered by many to make him and flawed, not so different from today's society.

The story has some dark elements, lots of on page violence, and some rough consensual sex. The story as a whole is on the dark side, and if you want a happy ending, keep looking. Cockle's vision of the future is not a happy one.

"Spawning Ground" is an all too plausible, barring the human development glitches, look at our possible future. Threads of it already exist in our society. It was fascinating reading and the story itself was engaging, twisty, and thought provoking. If you have any interest in genetic engineering, politics, or social trends, pick up this story.
