Just by random chance I picked up this book while browsing through the slew of free items on Amazon a couple of days back. Restless is a short story that acts a bit like a prequel to Aurora Rising series. G. S. Jennsen does a good job introducing the reader to this series with this…

Book Update – Intent
I had heard of the author, Jeff Olah, prior to picking up Intent. Finding this short story was sort of just a random coincidence. I was more interested in grabbing the prequel to his zombie series The Dead Years. If the writing of those books is anything like this one in both quality and story…
Book Update – Far From Home
I know that I’ve mentioned this series in prior postings. Far from Home is a space drama by Tony Healey that I have been working through. I have the omnibus version that has the entire collection. However, I felt that it was better to break up the actual updates for the series by the individual…
Book Update – Dreamers
This short story by J. R. Frontera is an interesting take on space sci-fi, but ultimately not all that original. The story reminded me of the very beginning of a space sci-fi show that I watched the first season of last year called Dark Matter. Dreamers actually felt too short not giving it quite enough time to fully…
Book Update – Zero Hour Episode 1
Zero Hour by Eamon Ambrose was a short story I picked up a couple of days ago for free on sort of a whim. To be totally honest I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect out side of it being a post-apocalyptic tale. Really, I had basically nothing to lose giving this title a shot…
Book Update – Life After Episode 14
Last year I found the Life After Series by JJ Holden and read the first half. I’m now working my way through the next half so the chances are there may be more posts about this series over the next couple weeks. Very likely actually. Right from the beginning I have enjoyed these books by…
Book Update – Black
This book by Ted Dekker is a little unusual primarily in how it is written. The chapters in Black alternate between two worlds. At first it was a little difficult to get used to since it was more difficult to really feel invested in either world or the characters. After a while the flipping back and…
Book Update – Dynasty of Evil
Over past couple months I have enjoyed listening to the Darth Bane Trilogy by Drew Karpyshyn. This final book was very good and I’m glad one of my co-workers suggested this Star Wars series. In a way I wish this one was more than just the three books, but really the series was tied up…
Book Update – Race Wars Season 1
Last year was I think my first real taste of prepper fiction and it’s one of those genres that is what I’d say is hit or miss. Either you like it or you don’t. Some books are good and some you just wish you hadn’t read. I have seen both sides and I think that…
Book Update – Reapers Run
For some time now I’ve seen a series of books on Amazon that look interesting, but a little unsure about called Plague Wars by David VanDyke. I had gotten the omnibus version that includes Reapers Run a couple weeks ago on a bit of a whim when it was on sale. I still wasn’t feeling…
