Commentary on things I’ve read
Every once in a while, I find a book that is a pleasant surprise. Agent to the Stars is just such a book. Face it. Most first novels are just not that good. They may show a lot of promise and be fun, but the majority of authors hit their stride as professional storytellers after … More Agent to the Stars
Shifter Born, the first in the Shifter Series from Red Rose Publications, just got another great review from Tony-Paul. Shifter Born is actually two novellas, published in one volume, and an enjoyable one it is, too. Thanks, Tony! note: This review contains a bunch of spoilers!
I just got this review of the first book in my shifter series, Shifter Born from Marie Beau. – – – I have long been a lover of shifter stories and this is definitely a good one. Anthony Stevens has a wonderful, lyrical way of writing that made me feel like I was there in … More Shifter Born Review
Lyssa loved her hard-won freedom and independence. Wolfe was alpha of his pack and on a mission to create a government supported wildlife sanctuary. Neither of them had planned on finding a mate. This is a well-written and believable tale of a wild country romance that gets off to a rough start. With this story, … More Wolf! – A review
I just found out about the first review for Crazy Taylor! http://www.tonivsweeney.com/Book_Review/Entries/2010/11/26_Crazy_Taylor_by_Anthony_Stevens.html This has to flavor of an old 1930’s movie plot, with brave adventurous pilots and braver women. It’s reminiscent of a Saturday Morning movie serial, that keeps you asking, “And what happens next?”
I just found out that my Bondage Anthology which was recently released by Red Rose Publications, got a good review. http://hea-reviews.blogspot.com/2010/08/review-bondage-fantasies-by-anthony.html “It is a must read to all those who are ready to indulge in serious fantasies. Bondage Fantasies is a book that will be re-read several times.”
Many, many years ago, when I was a kid of about eight or nine, my folks had this old guy over for dinner. They laughed and joked like adults do and, as soon as possible, I escaped to play outside. We had eaten early and it was still light when he came out by himself … More The Dream King
“Steamed: A Steampunk Romance” by Katie MacAlister Printed by Signet, a division of Penguin Publishing Okay! I’m a man. I admit it. When I first laid eyes on the cover art for Steamed I was hooked. It has to be one of the best covers I’ve seen in years. Let me digress… Awhile back, someone … More All Steamed Up!
I was over at my favorite Borders book store a little while ago. While poking through the computer to see if a new title was available, a lovely young lady asked if she could help. We chatted about various books and she was extremely polite, knowledgeable and helpful. Please take note that this is one of the … More Great Customer Service!
I like it when an author can surprise me. The other day, I was poking about the genre fiction section of my local Borders store and saw handful of paperbacks by an author I hadn’t read before. After perusing the title pages to make sure I got only the first book in a series, I … More On the Edge by Ilona Andrews
