This novella SUCKS you in. You believe you're reading a story about a rising star piano player, a little down on his luck, and then you receive a shock.

Review of The Puzzle

The Puzzle
 (Samantha Jamison Mystery)

Written by Peggy A. Edelheit

Reviewed by Author Roy Murry

What would you do if the police came to your front door and told you your loved one had been murdered? This is the beginning of The Puzzle.

Samantha is in denial. How could this be? I just took him to the airport. How did he die behind the wheel of a rental car on his way to his hometown?

To put the pieces together in this hard to explain event, she goes to the source, trying to put The Puzzle together – to the people who knew her secretive husband best. In this quest, she becomes a new person, questioning and feeding off his boyhood’s closest friends, acquaintances, and the small town he grew up in.

Protecting his memory and not knowing the full extent of his endeavor, they are allusive when Samantha tries to get to the truth. It comes to light after much probing and self-evaluation by all who knew her husband well, including Samantha.

Ms. Edelheit’s writing is clear cut with no clutter. Her chapters are short, and to the point, forcing you to turn to the next (And the next,) looking for the answers yourself. It won’t take you long to get to the truth – it’s a fast read.
Good opening for a series with nine books in it. You might get hooked.

Review of Oblivion's Forge


Oblivion Forge
By Simon Williams

Reviewed by Author Roy Murry


I have mixed feelings in writing this review. On the one hand, I know it’s a difficult task to write the first book in a series, but on the other, I believe it is the author’s duty to make it simple to read, so it will be a good launch for the series.

Oblivion’s Forge is not the end but the beginning of the Aona Series. Mr. Williams does an excellent job of developing his characters and plot. However, he has not made it simple for the reader – his audience.

As an avid reader, I got lost in the many unconnected plots until the end, which was a long time coming. I would have liked to have read a shorter version with fewer characters to follow.

When readers get to the final page, they will be left wanting more, because of the fascination of the subject – the beliefs of the human race, and how those ideas forge us toward our own oblivion – death. They may want to reread it to get a better grasp of the interwoven plots.

Long read that can be bought for $.99 on Kindle: http://amzn.to/1S1Xchi

Review of Bedroom Games



Bedroom Games

By

Regina Puckett & 
Charity Parkerson

Reviewed by Author Roy Murry

This novella about a young woman’s fetish of being excited fearfully before having sex with her playmates kept my attention. The protagonist, Pamela, has two male friends with benefits, who must give her a thrill before they can have their way with her.

Each has their turn at rocking her world and thoroughly enjoys the spoils of capturing Pamela off guard. In the background, awaits a man who wants to play for real.

He’s a deranged individual whose wants more than sex and is willing to do anything to get what he wants. When he makes his move after much thought, Pamela’s world is invaded and turned upside down.

If you want to find out what happens and get sexually teased by two writers' collaboration into an erotic fantasy, I recommend this quick read for a steamy adventure.

Review of Bang Bang You're Dead

Bang Bang You’re Dead
By Nick Quantrill

Reviewed by Author Roy Murry

This British Collection novel is written in an English dialect which may offend some. However, its reality is compelling.

The life of a released from prison murder is highlighted. He returns to his hometown to find out what happened to his brother, who seemed to have overdosed on drugs.

Unfortunately, his return embeds him in the criminal element he wished to avoid but grew up within. His journey is to free himself from that part and find out what actually happened to his brother.

The dialectic prose may be confusing to some Americans, but the storyline and characters drive this miss-adventure. It is fast-paced, and the personalities are down to earth but somewhat delusional in their concept of what is the good life.

This book will lead into areas that exist in the underbelly of many cities, where power lies in the hands of a few criminals. An adventure I enjoyed reading.
