Review: Mars Journey: Call to Action: Book 3

Mars Journey: Call to Action: Book 3 by Bill Hargenrader
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Part thee of this series picks up where the other two left off, and I mean that literally. Each book in this series has three distinct parts to it. Each story is complete in itself. When you take the books together in a series, each story lets us in on a little more of what is going on.

If you are a science fiction reader, the you will enjoy this as preparations are happening in our near future for a journey to Mars. While most of the world wants a fly bye, one group is staging a reality contest to see who will get to settle on Mars when the sent to the planet during the loop around the planet. That is, if the group can raise the money. And that is the person we are following.

Good short book, well written and enjoyable.

I was provided a copy for review and this is an honest review.

Review: Fatal Analysis

Fatal Analysis by Tom Bierdz
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I did receive a copy of this book from the author. What follows is an honest review.

A story of a alcoholic psychiatrist does not really sound like it would be interesting. To skip over this book would be a mistake. If you like a good tale of suspense, and a little mystery as well, then this is a book that you would want to pick up.

I felt it started a little slow but it really needed to because it takes time to introduce the myriad of characters that populate Grant Garrick's life. If you can stick with it, you will have a story that will keep you interested to the end.

The writing is tight, giving you the detailed information that you need to keep the story going. There are no sudden twists where you feel cheated because the author brings something up at the last minute to solve the problem.

I recommend this to most anybody. Sexual relations are hinted at but not explained in detail like so many authors feel like they have to do of late. If you like a good mystery/thriller, this is the book for you.
