Review Samples:

“As a reviewer, there are a few things that really thrill me about a book. I love finding a new author and enjoy their work. I also love when the plot feeds my interests that normal society deems boring. Another bonus for me is when the author has my mind so enmeshed in the story; I continue to think about the plot while I am going through my daily routine in life. Shell Game had all of this and more.

Imagine finally finding that one person in life that would enjoy passing the hours with you, contemplating today’s events in the world, speculating as to where the truth is in the midst of corrupt chaos and committing themselves along with you to declare war against the wicked deeds of corporations and men. Sami would be that person…”

Every now and again I pick up a book that has me riveted to the spot. I was so impressed with the tie up from beginning to end (I’m not going to spoil anything here) but the Shell Game is an excellent title. There were plenty of twists and turns to keep me guessing, there was adventure and excitement yet the storyline remained grounded and plausible. The characters leapt off the page and came to life. I am now hooked and off to see what other books this author has written, I am so pleased I’ve discovered a new favourite writer. I shall be recommending his works far and wide. This book deserves to be up there with the top sellers.
