Review of I WILL BREATHE

I Will Breathe
Forbidden Series, Book 1

Regina Puckett

Reviewed by Roy Murry, Author

This Young Adult read is for the young at heart like them and me. It is fun, bizarre, and delightful. Some of the reasons I keep coming back to Regina's short novels

In this adventure, Liberty, a young lady pilot of an airship, goes about her business of bartering items needed in her post end of times world.

On one of her stops to deliver goods, she takes on the task of caring for a robot who has feelings. On a stop to get water fuel for her ship, she encounters other humans.

The adventure begins, and Liberty breaks all of her dead father's rules by engaging the robot and the humans. She finds love, a trait she has been avoiding all her life.

How this all comes about and how Liberty changes are the lessons learned in this novel; some that YA's should learn.

An enjoyable quick read. The way I like it.



Review of Magnolia Gods

MAGNOLIA GODS
A River Sunday Romance Mystery, Book 2

Thomas Hollyday

Reviewed by Roy Murry, Author

The undercurrent of this fast-paced novel is the romance of two aircraft pilots, Mike and Robin. The mystery of what happened to an experimental steam engine airboat and its inventor after World War II is what binds them together for this thrilling adventure.

Was the plane stolen? Was the inventor, a veteran Naval Captain a traitor? Where is the airplane? Many questions need to be answered.

There are many curves thrown at the reader that keeps one asking what next. 'Who is on first,' comes to mind. In other words, who is the real traitor in this story?

The tale comes to a crash ending after a battle to the end of some real criminals. Exciting and poignant are two words to describe it.

Well worth the opening of the cover to see who the Magnolia Gods are and how they help save the name of a patriot.

The novel is a quick 256 pages and stands alone as part of a series.



Review of Neon Lawyer

THE NEON LAWYER

VICTOR METHOS


Reviewed by Roy Murry, Author


Short but gripping legal story of a lawyer named Brigham who is out to fight the system. Because of his ingenuity on how he pleaded his first case, a traffic ticket which he loses, Brigham's boss gives him a murder case.

Very unusual, but he is a freelance lawyer working for a Law Firm/Bail Bondsman. Much of this story is non-common, but the lady who committed the murder agrees, and they go to trial. 

Having read many legal thrillers, I believe the legal tactics and procedures used is plausible. The courtroom drama is suspenseful but quick because of the case and the prosecutor's deceit and the compassion he has for the defendant's state of mind.

Characters are developed for a series to continue but this novel is short, so I give it a quick review. It is worth the .99 cents sale price or Kindle Unlimited.
