Review
This story has so much to offer. For me, the initial chapter spun the world in a vivid way. The author managed to keep that up and it and continued throughout. The storyline kept me entranced, I didn’t want to put it down and didn’t want it to end.
It's a crazy new world that takes a bit to understand and I will admit I was learning throughout the entire thing. There was plenty of action in this one and I think if you like nonstop movement with your books, this is a great read for you.
Great detail and a fun escape. Great read!
About the Author
Like Shakespeare and Hemmingway, I am an eclectic writer. My stories develop from my imagination and passions, usually just before I fall asleep. Before I became an Indie author, I had two novels published by a respected independent publisher, which went out of business. Since books cannot be removed from Amazon, A Sinister Obsession is now Dead Can’t Haunt You, and Stardust Dreams will soon be Forrester’s Folly. During my clinical careers as a School Psychologist and Clinical Social Worker in private practice, I had a book on human nature published by a traditional publisher and when the editor passed away, it vanished. That book will be updated and launched next year. Happily, I am now an Indie author with the same quality of work but now under my control. My genres have been horror, suspense/thriller, senior romance, sci/fi, and now apocalyptic, which is based on my worries about the precarious future of cyberspace. Besides writing, I am an avid golfer, bowler, and tennis player. I reside in Florida with my lovely wife and Mickey, our handsome Shih Tzu.
