Warrior Angel By Liz and Margarette Weis

Rating : A great modern fairy tale, that’s easy to get into.

Okay we all see these books all the time in the stores. They are romance novels that have a tint of supernatural or fantasy to them. There has been at least a thousand of them in existence ranging from Twilight to Hunter’s Moon to Stardust. As with the ones just mention, they were about love stories between humans, vampires, were wolves and fallen stars. (just in case you…

The Bourne Legacy- Out With The Old, In with The Awesome

Rating: This book was a hell of a lot of fun

Do you remember all those Ludlum novels that were fantastic. The ones that kept you on the edge of your seat and were written intelligently that you weren’t exactly having a brain drain while reading He wrote the Bourne trilogy (that were adapted into movies) and sadly died in 2001. Then some one, this Eric Van Lustador had the gull to buy the rights to Ludlum’s masterpieces…

Stephen King’s The Road Virus Heads North

Overall Rating: Good, quick read, if you like horror

I have pretty stated in my earlier hubs that I’m not that much of a horror fan. But will always give it a shot. This time, it’s The Road Virus Heads North by Stephen King.

The Road Virus Heads North is not truly a novel and is only a short story about fifty pages long. It can be found online and is in his short stored collections, I found it in everything’s Eventual.

The story…

This is a book about a man who can teleport. A society who murders his family when he is only ten years old, He runs from them and it is cat and mouse fame they get involved wit until he decides to fight back.

The Ruins – A realistic Kind of Horror

WARNING THIS REVIEW DOES CONTAIN A COUPLE SMALL SPOILERS. THEY ARE MARKED OFF RIGHT BEFORE AND AFTER THE SPOILER BY ***spoiler***………………….

Rating: Totally worth the read……………………..

Strait out. I’m not a big horror geek when it comes to novels. Simply because books just don’t scare me and for some reason authors like Stephen King or Dean Koontz often tine s bore me. I just kind of feel silly and when are trying to be creepy and just…

Looking Glass Wars: Alice The Way You Never Seen Her Before……………………………..

Overall book rating: Awesome…………………………………

Okay, any one who has every visited my website, read my blogs, hubs, or just simply asked me about fantasy books, I always go on this rant of how they are all the same. They are all Lord of The Rings knock offs and Harry otter is too over rated, and how the Golden Compass is the only book that offered world we have never seen before. Well I’ll save you that rant.…

Hi all!

I wonder if anyone would like to help me out? I'm fairly new here, and I've recently written a book (it's not a great paving slab of a thing, and is still in progress) and I'm thinking of perhaps trying to get published. The problem is, I don't really have an exact audience. I asked around my friends, and my best friend said that it was most likely a book for (particularly mad) teenagers, and another of them said it could be anything depending on how you thought about it…

Hello every one I'm new to this site.   I was looking for  groups to  join where other authors come and learn from one another. I became a first time author last year. My first book At a Glance was published in March which I wrote when I was 17 and my second On the Bedroom Wall was published in September. November it was featured at the International Book Fair. I am currently writing the follow up to OTBW (New Beginnings) as we speak.  And then end that series with Sins of the Father. So…

Unless you’re the prude of your generation, everybody likes a humorous story. Some light-hearted anecdote to bring a smile or a gentle chuckle.

Many authors will insert humor into their stories, even if the subject matter is serious or the tone is dramatic. Humor gives the reader a rest, a small break before diving back into the deep end. My favorite example comes from the Hitchcock movie “Topaz”. The entire movie concerns spies. However, the one small moment comes near the…
