‘Oxygen’ Still Leaves Readers Breathless

As this review is published, in an alternate-world version of Aug. 14, 2012, Christian and scientist Valkerie Jansen is about to join the first manned Mars mission.

‘The Dark Man’ Lurks In Dreams

“The Dark Man” presents a powerful, mysterious metaphor by classic use of vivid dream-visions.

‘A Star Curiously Singing’ Shines In A Dark, Droning World

To finish this first “DarkTrench Saga” novel by Kerry Nietz, I stayed up late. A fictitious robot wasn’t the only high note in this original science-fiction tale.

Review: The Gift

This second in the dystopian Chiveis Trilogy will be a book those who love fantasy and who want a story with a Christian worldview will enjoy. I suspect there will be more Litfin fans coming on board because of The Gift.

A Worthy Successor To ‘The Lord Of The Rings’

In ‘Daughter of Light,’ Morgan Busse’s mythology is impressive, her characters realistic, and her themes truthful. Buy it and read it. It is truly fantastic.

‘König’s Fire’ Blazes With Dark Beauties and Truths

“Deus et natua non faciunt frusta.” “God and nature do not work together in vain.” Neither do the history and paranormal, and evil and good of this superb thriller.

Book Review: Replication

I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves a page-turner. It’s not hard science fiction. You might even call it near-near future because the story had a very contemporary feel. I’d also say the book is not one only teens will enjoy. They will, but adults who have teens or who taught teens or who were teens can enjoy it too. In short, this is a book readers will want to get a hold of. I suggest you do so ASAP!

Book Review: Angel Eyes

I hope Frank Peretti endorses Shannon’s next book. He should. She is marvelously contributing to the supernatural/spiritual warfare genre he established with the Darkness books years ago. Although this book is directed at young adults, all-the-way-grown-up adults can enjoy it just as well. A must read for Christians.

‘Hero, Second Class’ Haves At Hackneyed Fantasies

I could offer humor critiques, but it’s too hard to kid this masterful kidder. “Hero, Second Class” is ultimately a unique and hilarious read.

Author’s Humility and Skill Makes ‘Firebird’ Soar

Though this military-veteran reviewer had some difficulties with the violence, this author-annotated space-opera series is masterful.

Christ Is Shown and Told In Peretti’s ‘The Visitation’

The Visitation, Frank Peretti
Some question Frank Peretti’s spiritual warfare novels. Far better is his fantastic, nearly literary exploration of the true Jesus versus false christs.

Prepare For The Horrific In ‘Beckon’ By Tom Pawlik

I highly recommend Beckon to adults who love the creepy, the bone-chilling, the fear-inspiring, and to those who want to consider the issues of life and immortality. It’s a good story filled with tension and intrigue and packaged in a unique structure that enhances the reading experience.

John Carter: Pioneer Of New Worlds

Without Edgar Rice Burroughs’s “Barsoom” novels, fantasy and sci-fi stories would likely not exist today.
