Praise for The Price of Desire

Highlights from various reviews around the web include…

“The Price of Desire is military science fiction at its finest.  It’s a story of two people–a psychologically damaged Imperial naval commander and the woman he rescues from slavers while en route to an assignment meant to end his career–finding a common fate against a backdrop of galactic imperialism, war, and revolt.”

“The characters have become so real to me that I often find myself thinking of them as actual friends and acquaintances. When I face a difficult daily decision, I ask myself: what would Kisten do? How would Aria handle this? It’s that level of great.”

“The book’s treatment of PTSD is subtle, but powerful: it slowly becomes clear that Kisten’s emotional disabilities have very precise causes, and the choices he makes (as well as the feelings he has) both leading up to the story’s opening and throughout the narrative will ring true for anyone who has experienced this kind of trauma. Aria, too, suffers from the same symptoms, albeit with a different, no less serious cause. It might sound corny, but it’s really a story about redemption lying around the next corner. It spoke to me very powerfully at a very difficult time in my life, and I look forward to seeing what awaits these characters as they move forward.”

“I was on a cruise when I started this and couldn’t put it down!”

“I can honestly say I was shocked at how much it had me interested and WANTING to read.”

“The Price of Desire will appeal to fans of science fiction and fans of adventure and intrigue alike.  It has been described as The Far Pavilions meets Starship Troopers, an engaging combination of M.M. Kaye’s romantic adventure and Heinlein’s hard-boiled militarism.  Its characters are real, damaged, people, struggling to make their way in an increasingly uncertain universe.”
