Reiview of THE AURA

 

THE AURA

 

CARRIE BEDFORD

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

I rate this paranormal mystery at the top half of my read ratings as far as mysteries go. The read has some good elements, mainly Kate, but falls short on the suspense side.

Kate's reading of auras is the central item driving the story based in England. However, I did not get the 'English Feel' in this story that I have felt in other novels backgrounded there.

The book is the first in a series and gives the reader a reason to move on to book two. Kate is developing her abilities in understanding her auras and could lead to interesting situations.

Lastly, the storyline was different, making it somewhat enjoyable, so that I may go on and read another in this eight-book series. You should read one of Carrie's books during a vacation.

Let Me Be the One

Let Me Be the One

 

LILY FOSTER

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

Tom and Darcy go on a rollercoaster romance ride during their college years. If you've been to college, you understand it's where one makes essential life decisions.

The peaks and troughs are many on this ride because each leads the main character off the rails. But, unfortunately, each makes the wrong evaluation about the other's standing. 

The last one includes a life-changing for all the families involved. The conclusion is not what one would expect in a romance novel, but the reader will like it.

Ms. Foster seems to be writing from experience. If not, the development of the story and characters are well-produced. The prose is enjoyable but lacking in the tear factor.

The Great Reset

THE GREAT RESET

How Big Tech Elites and the World's People can be enslaved by China CCP or A.I.

CYRUS A. PARSA, The A.I. Organization

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

The title is a mouth full as well as the Parsa's content of multiple RESETS. So, I'll give you a few: Ethical, Bio-Digital, and Grid Infrastructure.

Mr. Parsa starts with A.I. definitions. I didn't know there was more than one. The reader might agree.

It's scary to think A.I. technology and advancements are available to nefarious people as the CCP. However, western civilization must meet the challenge.

The summary presented will pique the reader's attention, hopefully motivating government leaders into action. If we don't, the CCP will take over most of the world, leading to a stand-off.

Mr. Parsa's book is a well-written description of what humanity has to look forward to enjoying. I am sarcastic, but this is mind-blowing stuff.

According to the author, if only part of the RESETS happens, humanity is heading into a tailspin. If you didn't know, Cyrus A. Parsa predicted the COVID 19 scenario in another book.

Must Read for the Inquisitive Mind.

Review of How to Fake an Irish Wake

How to Fake an Irish Wake

 

Eliza Watson

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

Mags and Biddy solve a genealogy mystery by accident. Mags' grandmother, a genealogist, died in Ireland, and she is there directing her wake, giving the reader insight into Irish mores - charming.

In the course of things, Finn arrives in town looking for his father, whom he has never met. Unfortunately, Mags doesn't know who her father is either.

This adventure is book one in a series, so it's a setup. First, Finn shows a snap (photo) to everyone around town, which lands him in the hospital. Next, Mags, who just met Finn, gets involved in investigating his mishap and genealogy.

She brings Biddy, her life's friend, into a hilarious adventure that leads to another wake. Those encounters lead to a sobering ending the reader will enjoy.

The writing and characters are endearing, capturing the readers' attention and wanting to buy the series. I know I will buy another in the series.

Review of THE SCENT OF VIOLETS

 

The Scent of Violets:

a passionate and sensual erotic journey

 

JUDY KEMP

 

Review by Author Roy

 

The title tells it all. Linda and Graham, a married couple of seven years, decide to break the sexual norms of a monogamous relationship.

Their sexual living style is healthy, but something is missing. Linda brings up the question of if Graham would enjoy seeing her have uncontrollable sex with another man.

The answer is yes, a man is hired, and the uncontrollable sex journey they both enjoy leads to twosomes, threesomes, and foursomes having a tumultuous and emotional time. If the reader has a vivid sexual imagination, Ms. Kemp's descriptions will expand it to another level. Unless…

The writing is crisp, sometimes over the top, and enjoyable in sexual episode reading.

Review of ELF KILLERS

 

ELF KILLERS

 

Carol Marrs Phipps and Tom Phipps

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

Firstly, my friends, the reader must read the glossary to get a rhythm of Trollish language. Otherwise, you may be irritated by what many Trolls are saying.

Then delve into this fast pace fantasy of two imaginary being types. The Elves are compassionate, intelligent beings, and the Trolls, are brutish war-loving individuals who enjoy eating elves.

The appearance of being true or accurate of these beings comes through in Phipps' writing. The reader will laugh at the antics of the Trolls and will feel the trauma of the Elves.

Elf Killers is a multi-level composition of good versus evil—unfortunately, that theme has been used to death in novels. However, Carol and Tom Phipps' twist engages the reader's curiosity, leaving them wanting more.

That is why I have read three of their novels.

Review of EARTHBOUND

EARTHBOUND

Chronicles of the Maca - Book 1

MARI COLLIER

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

ALIEN meets Cowboy in the 1850s; what could go wrong. Mac, the alien's new name, intermingles with Texians.

He and his partner go from rags to riches buying land near Mac's spaceship that he wants to operate but needs an education on earth to do so. This endeavor leads our man from another world through conflicts of the wild west and the USA Civil War.

Because of his alien being, Mac is different than most men and has secrets that he only allows his loved ones to know about - his spaceship and its contents. Finally, after a long relationship, his partner and his wife are allowed entry.

The three survive many traumas leading to other conflicts that lead the reader into Book 2 of this chronicle. Many questions Mac and his earthly friends are left open.

I didn't think I would like this novel, but it was so well-written I overlooked the fictional theme. I read little of the Cowboy or Sci-Fi genres. However, Ms. Collier’s writing may have convinced me to read more of them.
