This was an interesting book to curl up and read as the author takes you on an insightful adventure from Vashon Island to the jungles of Ecuador. As the main character, Oliver Bruce, grapples with his life decisions, he finds himself in a unique situation that could change the lives of every human being. What would you do if the future source of energy for the planet was held in your pocket? It is a question that the Sunshine Coast BC author Mark Cameron poses in his debut book, "Goodnight Sunsh

Absolutely loved this book. It had great characters, an interesting adventure and a few plot twists. I loved the international flavour - the setting in Equador and the temptations the protagonist went through. I looked forward to reading the next chapter and then the next until darn it, the book was done. Looking forward to the sequel.
Goodnight Sunshine held my attention from beginning to end.
Mark did a great job of developing his characters. Saying goodbye to Oliver and Jen was like saying goodbye to two good friends.
I will be watching for more from this new author.
A must read. Two thumbs up.

Mark Cameron's book has some insightful views on the environment. His story is interesting and I enjoyed learning more about Ecuador. His take on romance was from a man's perspective which is not the usual way in the books I have read. I am not sure I bought into the main character's reasons for going to Ecuador in the first place but then I am not a man. Cameron has a good writing technique and the book held my interest to the end so I would recommend it, especially to those male wanna-be adven

Oliver Bruce is not your average hero: his life is mundane, his relationship with his wife cool and unfulfilling, his kids distant. He is a man looking for meaning in his life, feeling saddened and frustrated by his choices. But then on accident triggers a sequence of events which le
