Image and video hosting by TinyPicThe Rule of Nine by Steve Martini:

"First time I've read this author but not the last. He has an odd way of ending his story -- He leaves you up in the air as to how it ends. Interesting."

Image and video hosting by TinyPicTrojan Odyssey by Clive Cussler:

"Trojan Odyssey was a little hard to get into the main tale but once there you didn't want to stop reading. This was a new author for me. Very good."

Image and video hosting by TinyPicEight Days to Live by Iris Johansen:

"This was a fast-paced read just as smart as most Iris Johansen books are. I found it interesting to delve more into the character of Jane. I enjoyed learning more about her, especially her power of dreams. I also enjoyed the character of Seth Caleb. We didn't get to know him as well in the previous Eve Duncan book. He is a very interesting character and there's a good dynamic between Seth and Jane."

Image and video hosting by TinyPicTrue Valor by Dee Henderson (book 2 in Uncommon Heroes series):

"Overall, I liked the book. I thought the first book in the series was much easier to follow. I did have trouble keeping track of characters and military language at first."

Image and video hosting by TinyPicTrue Honor by Dee Henderson (book 3 in Uncommon Heroes series):

"I enjoyed this book. I thought it was much better than book two in the Uncommon Heroes series. It is a good read for a mystery that is purely fantasy. I was a little disappointed at how unrealistic some parts were but overall, a good read."

Image and video hosting by TinyPicTrue Courage by Dee Henderson (book 4 in Uncommon Heroes series):

"I really enjoyed this book! It was by far the best in Henderson's Uncommon Heroes series. However, it didn't relate to any of the other books in the series in that none of the recurring characters were present. If you enjoy mysteries this is a good read."
