Till Death by Christopher Beck

In this short story the reader is taken from Erotica, to a true 80’s style horror ending. Jump out of your skin time!Reminded me of a scene from one of Stephen Kings films. All adult content, very graphic but well written and easy to read. I enjoyed the tale very much and would highly recommend it. This is the forth piece of work I have read by this author, and for me he just keeps on getting and better.

Playing the Game by Simon Gould

I have just finished this book and it was excellent! I would highly recommend it to anyone that likes a fast paced thriller. Anyone that is thinking of buying or downloading this book do not hesitate, you won't be disappointed, it's a must for anyone that enjoys crime fiction.Personally,I think Simon Gould is up there with Harlan Coben and James Patterson,and as this is his first novel I am sure we are going to be seeing alot more of him .I am eagerly awaiting the sequel now..

Cadence of the Undead By Christopher L Beck

This is a superb novella centering on a Zombie Apocalypse, with some excellent horror scenes, which are definitely not for the nervous! However, in addition to the horror, the author introduces us to two main couples in the story, who, in turn, have to learn to... deal with their relationships and survival during this terrifying time. I could actually feel the desperation and sadness that one couple endured, it was heartbreaking .The other couple brought another dimension into the story; fear, panic and hysteria and with this, a very unexpected and unusual ending. I have now read all of this authors’ work, and have honestly enjoyed them all, but with this book Christopher Beck has surpassed himself! It is well written, well thought out and extremely entertaining from beginning to end .I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting to read a horror story packed with emotion.

Mementos of Mai by Helmy Parlente Kusuma

This was a totally different read for me, although i have to say I found it thoroughly refreshing..It is written as an excerpt, I am assuming, of the author’s life and how he coped with emotion and the dawning realisation of how life doesn’t always work out the way you want it, therefore having to turn in another direction and succeed. I found the whole story very sweet, natural and sometimes sad. I loved the descriptions the author used, making me feel that I could actually taste and smell the things he was describing.I thought this was extremely well done considering English is not the author’s first language. To conclude, the book isn’t a page turner nor is it fast paced. It is simply a relaxing, sensitive read.

Remember.....in your Dreams? by Alejandro Canton

This is an excellent and extremely well written book, which I thoroughly enjoyed from beginning to end. This story reads almost as an autobiography, a grandfather sharing poignant memories with his newly born grandson by way of astral travel and crystal ball gazing, visiting past events that were significant to the Grandfather’s life. The bonding between the two generations during these times is touching and unique. Throughout the book, I was always under the impression that the author is trying to relay to the reader the importance of memories and keeping alive the ‘spirit’ of loved ones that have passed on, therefore always to “remember”. This was for me, a moral. To conclude, in my opinion this book could be listed as a modern ‘Classic’. The author has a way of making the reader really feel the emotions and I would highly recommend this to anyone who is looking to read a story with depth and meaning, and yet, at the same time light-hearted and entertaining. Alejandro Canton has the ability to do both!

Poltergeisten by Ian Woodhead

I thoroughly enjoyed this short, but not so sweet, horror story, which i read before going to sleep.Anyone with a nervous disposition,i wouldn't advise to do the same! I liked the particular style of writing,taking us from normal everyday life into a bizarre,stomach churning situation. I will certainly look forward to reading more from this Author,especially now a full length novel.

Circle City Blues by Susan Wells Bennett

This story is based on a very simple theme , but oh my ....what a good read!!From page one I was hooked ...couldn’t put this book down! The characters are believable and the main man ‘Mac’ is a real lovable trucker .I’m not totally sure if the author means her readers to fall for him but I did! I kept turning the pages to find out what he had decided to do next and really wanted him to make the right choices .I sympathised and felt for him ... when he was happy ,I was.....when he was down I was too and this, for me is the sign of a well written book. I would highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys an easy read and being totally engrossed to the end .Was there anything that i found disappointing? Yes ....it ended !! Loved it ..brilliant book!

The Lonely Mile by Allan Leverone

This is a real gutsy, gritty thriller. It is fast paced, easy to read and extremely well written. ... The baddie/abductor, Martin Krall is a complete mad man with absolutely no morals which makes the story terrifying and kept me on the edge throughout the book. I very much liked the main characters , they were believable and determined without going over the top and the author writes in such a way that I could feel the pain and anguish that the father, Bill Ferguson was going through alongside the fear of his daughter, throughout the ordeal. The twist at the end was a complete surprise, I didn’t see that coming at all, which made the story even more enjoyable , if that is possible. All in all, this is a superb book and I would highly recommend it to anyone that likes a really good thriller packed with action. It is a must ! Thank you for the great read Mr Leverone and I will most certainly be looking to read more from you!

Take No More by Seb Kirby

This is an outstanding debut novel by Seb Kirby. He captivates the reader from the first page, and remains gripping and compelling throughout.I could not put this book down. Listed under Murder,Mystery and Thriller but so much more than that.The geography of London and Florence was handled very well to add richness to the novel, alongside the Authors obvious love and knowledge of the art world .In addition to this,the reader is taken into the Italian underworld weaving a web of corruption,deceit,secrets and murder around the whole plot . If you enjoy a really good Thriller,in the style of Sidney Sheldon with extras, and are prepared to be kept on the edge of your seat throughout, this book is a definite must! I am eagerly awaiting the next novel.

Sweat, Glamour and Light Sins by Alex Canton Dutari

This is a very different novella to anything I have ever read.I thought is was excellently written and very well put together. Set within a gym in California this story is an insight of life seen through the eyes of a new member, Abuelo ‘the grandfather’, who, along with the exuberant Rhonda, is the main character and narrator. ... The novella is light hearted, entertaining and often hilarious with a touch of sexual content which is fitting to the storyline. However , as the plot and characters unfold there is also grit, determination , grief and even nutrition lessons to be found, along with fashion designing, dance, a beauty pageant and much more! This is a short story packed with goodies! Having read other works from this author I have come to expect hidden messages within his books and even though this novella was more light hearted than his previous books , they were there for the reader to find! My one criticism is that I sincerely hope this will not be the last we see of these characters as I personally felt we have unfinished business with them. A follow up is required please!
