Free Books for (Possible) Reviews!


I am currently seeking reviews for my novella, Garden of The Humbled Gods. It's free on all platforms except for Amazon. You can find a link to the free copy of your choosing here- https://books2read.com/HumledGods
It is a short read, and a hell of a ride. Whether you like it or not, I would appreciate your honest review. I'm a big boy and can take my medicine. Regardless I hope my work earns the privilege of you time.
Description-
It's 2019 in Tampa, Florida. It's summertime, and it's hot.
Jose was born in Xicoténcatl and came to this country looking for milk and honey. He loves his family more than Trump loves putting kids in cages, but they live in constant fear that the boogeymen will show up and take it all away.
Conner and Braxton were radicalized through social media, and now they spend all day reading alt-right propaganda. Mark's clueless to it all. He's too busy being detested by his wife, Ellen, and their daughter Ashley.
D'Andre is 6'5 and built like a god. Everyone says he's the next Kobe. But he's also a black kid who lives in the south.
Let's see what happens.

I would love to have some honest reviews on my book, Maygest's Tale. It was released a bit ago, and I don't have any reviews on it yet.
Here's the blurb:
Maygest, an old thief, who has been conning people for the last decade, finds his way of life extinguished when the tyrannical Lords of Osskrip join forces and destroy all the fugitive enclaves, the only places people are allowed to be people. With no place to go and fearing that death may be near, Maygest sets off in search of a mythical harp that is said will bring peace to the land in a last-ditch effort to redeem himself before he dies. The problem is, the harp only seems to exist in his mind.

Genre: High Fantasy
Rating: There are adult themes in this book and some cursing, but nothing sexual.
If interested, please message me, and I can provide a digital copy.
Thank you for reading!

I've just published a novella (adult historical fiction) titled THE WINDS OF MORNING. Though it's the prequel to my Donovan Family Saga, it stands alone as the history of one family in Ireland during the Great Potato Famine and explores their lives and the reasons they immigrate to America.
Here's a bit of a teaser:
1848: the third year the potato crop failed in Ireland. The Protestant landlords have absconded back to Britain, leaving the Catholic peasants to fend for themselves, while the government allowed the export of tens of thousands of tons of Irish food daily.
With two younger brothers to feed, Molly O'Brien took her father's place on the road gang, building a road that runs from her tiny village to the river and no farther. Yet sixteen hours of labor a day would not garner enough wages to even buy bread for her family.
She was beyond despair. Beyond prayer. And so far beyond the tenets of her childhood that she'd decided to offer her body to the first man with the price of a loaf of bread. At that moment, a voice behind her spoke...
It's less than 100 pages and a quick read that (according to my beta readers) will make you feel all the feels. I'd love for it to garner some reviews. It's available in most formats, including Kindle, Nook, Roku & PDF.
Just message me with your preferred format and I'll provide a free copy.
Thanks for your interest!

Looking for reviews!

INVADED by the Soviet Union, Finland must mount a desperate defense against overwhelming odds. Outnumbered and outclassed, the world expected Finland to quickly succumb to the Communist juggernaut. That didn’t happen.
Hale grew up farming, and hunting the frozen forest of his northern home. Taught from a young age by his father to hunt and trap, Hale has grown into master woodsman. Not yet twenty summers in age, he is most at home in the wilderness. Utilizing his gifts, especially his uncanny aim with a rifle, he has helped put food on the table and to earn a living by selling valuable pelts.
When invasion threatened, he put his growing love for Nea on hold and answered his nation’s desperate call to stem the Soviet tide. Now alone in Finland’s vast southern forest, he hunts prey of a different kind. Will his skills and the rifle his father gave him be enough against the countless numbers, tanks, and aircraft of the Soviet Union?

Thanks a million on behalf of all baby seals!
Here is the blurb:
Sometimes all you need is a big heart and burning desire.
Danny, a curious harp seal pup, has soft white fur and black innocent eyes. Helen is an environmentalist and member of a young activist crew of the Rainbow Warriors. Their mission is to save animals.
As winter turns into spring, a new generation of seal pups comes to life. A few weeks later, the killing begins. Against a spectacular backdrop of ice and snow, Helen prepares to look horrific human cruelty in the face.
I do not doubt I have a big heart and burning desire, but is that enough for a person to become a Rainbow Warrior, or is there something better? Something only some of us manage to turn into what we have long missed—humanity.
In the race against time and clubs, will Helen save Danny before the hunt begins and the ice turns red?
Though written for younger readers, Look for Me Under the Rainbow will appeal to anyone who cherishes our beautiful planet and wishes to protect its treasures.

My book debut novel, The City of Snow & Stars was published Monday of this week! So excited about it! Now I'm looking to (hopefully) get some reviews on either Amazon or Goodreads (or both lol) to help people find it! :D
It's a Christian Fantasy tackling hard topics such as abuse (physical, emotional, sexual, and mental), human trafficking, and "Why does God let bad things happen?"
I can offer the ebook for those who are interested in reading, just message me here or email me at sdhowardauthor@gmail.com to let me know.
Here's the summary:
“I won’t do it. Never.”
Trinia’s Gift is the ability to duplicate herself perfectly in mind and body yet, every time she uses it, she feels like she loses another piece of her soul. Her abusive and power-hungry father, Caderyn, wishes to exploit her gift to create an army that obeys his command and rebuild the Airgíd Empire that fell a thousand years before.
Going on the run, Trinia seeks out the aid of the kingdoms that destroyed her people. When things don’t go as planned, she’s forced into trusting a failed mage, a man of legend with a vendetta, and a talking wolf to help her reach her goal by making a promise she isn’t sure she can keep.
As she wrestles with the ghosts of her past trauma and new ones that keep piling up, Trinia begins to wonder where the justice is in it all, and whether she has what it takes to stop her father and save her people.
“Never say never, daughter. For never has a way of finding its way to fruition.”
The City of Snow & Stars, book one of the Cities of Wintenaeth series.
Let me know if you have any questions! :D

This novel follows a woman named Nara who can walk into people's dreams. When her kingdom is taken over by a mysterious new king, he takes her from her small village to work in the castle...almost as though he had been looking specifically for her. Now all eyes are on Nara, and between the King, a jealous and tyrannical High Priestess, and a mysterious figure no one else can see, Nara soon finds that she is thrust into a larger arena than she could have dreamed.

My debut SciFi novel, Oneiros, goes live on Amazon on Monday, January 4th and I am looking to give free copies of it away in exchange for an unbiased review! I am using Booksprout for my ARC and the link is below. Thanks!

Synopsis
Would you be willing to lose your family to save the world?
In the near future, the Earth is on the verge of destruction. Major Asher Gray is at the end of his career and the government asks him to undertake one final secret mission. For thirty years, asteroids have pummeled the Earth and the Military believes something is intentionally attacking the planet. They want Asher to find the source of the asteroids before the planet is destroyed.
The catch is that Asher will have to spend years away from his family at the edge of the Solar System on the Oort Cloud Space Station. Further, Asher thinks the government isn't telling him the truth about his mission. Finally, before he departs his father hints at a dark family secret that could upend everything Asher knows about reality.
The stakes are high: Asher must save the Earth, keep his family together, and find out what the government is really after. The only way to accomplish the mission is to rush headlong into deep space and confront whatever is threatening everything he holds dear.
Following in the footsteps of Joe Haldeman's "Forever War", and Robert Heinlein's "Starship Troopers", Oneiros tells the story of one man's struggle to balance his family, career, and mission to save the Earth. Ultimately, it looks at how far one man is willing to go to get back everything he has lost.

Please check my sci-fi mystery, Bloodstained Bliss. I will gift the ebook on Amazon to people interested in reading and reviewing it.
Blurb:
Three centuries after the violence genes have been removed from the entire world population, a series of murders shake the blissful island of Roseside Reef and the entire planet. New dead bodies are discovered despite around-the-clock video surveillance, but is there anyone who can stop the killer?
With no police, no detectives, and no forensics team, Zeno Pruitt, former military Commander and unenthusiastic Governor, jumps at the opportunity to lead the team that aims to solve the mystery. The investigation leads him to hidden truths that change the way he sees the world. Little does he know that he's the one at the center of the murderous motives.
After the killer turns his attention to Zeno's wife, he looks at both his friends and enemies to find the culprit. With suspects to spare, he crosses off the names one by one, until only one option remains

I would like to review your book if you tell me what details to send. As a fellow author, I will gladly gift you copies of my books also, but I don't think we can trade email addys over Goodreads.


Book Review for Story of a Stolen Girl for award-winning author Pat Spencer by Kathy Woods, Editor North County Daily Star
Story of a Stolen Girl by Pat Spencer is definitely a best-selling novel. This fictional, but real story for what is happening at this time, is full of horror, love, and bravery. Darby was kidnapped, drugged, and trafficked to another country where she was enslaved like an animal.
Each chapter moved back and forth in time and location and in circumstances from daughter and mother as the investigation progressed each day through the help of the authorities.
Enslavement and fear engulfed them as Nina, Darby’s mom, searched for her daughter. Once she learned where her daughter was taken, thanks to the authorities, this mother risked her own life and willingly allowed herself to be kidnapped and trafficked to find her daughter.
“What would you do to rescue your child?”
I couldn’t put the book down until it was finished. I read it every minute I had available till the very end. Will she find her? Will she be rescued? Will they escape and make it home, ALIVE?
Thousands of boys and girls are taken every day. Some will never be found. Kidnapping and human trafficking is a billion-dollar business and the victims, if found, are scarred forever.
Story of a Stolen Girl is available on Amazon and online at Barnes & Noble. Learn more about human trafficking prevention and services to support survivors as well as more about this author at Pat’s website at patspencer.net and on FB.
Thank you, Pat Spencer, for sharing your book. This MUST STOP! A must-read for ALL!

“Love’s real. I think it’s lied about, faked, distorted and misunderstood, so first we have to define the concept. So say you were asking me if I thought ghosts were real.”
“Oh, that’s a good one too, what do you think about that?”
“No idea.”
“Me either.”
He grinned “Okay, so imagine that the concept of ‘ghost’ arises organically from the aspirations and limitations of what it is to be human, the same way a shadow exists on a surface when light is obstructed by an object. The shadow doesn’t have a separate existence from those circumstances, but it’s real. There are stories about ghosts all over the world, different cultures and time periods. Humans are driven to survive, so they create stories about how survival is possible after death. Particularly strong motivations make a more powerful ghost the way a strong light source can cast a long and deep shadow. Ghosts can be nurturing or vengeful, but their cross-culture power flows from the strength of the communal human need to seek survival. Since survival is such a strong and ultimately denied need, it can be preyed upon easily. People want to believe so badly that psychics, con artists, religions and politicians can take advantage - they can tell you they can communicate with ghosts or predict where their afterlife condo is going to be and how to qualify for one or provide an upgrade. Your ancestors need papaya sacrifices to rest easy? Papaya Warehouse Priests can do that in bulk!”
She tilted her head, considering. “How do you sacrifice a papaya?”
“Don’t ask, that’s how they get you.”
“Right. Okay.”
