One reviewer wrote They're a little Ray Bradbury, a little Stephen King, but with Powell's own unique twists. Very interesting read.

Stay away from Shaky Man. Every kid in the small town of Tonkaway, Texas, knows that.
He eats little kids, murdered his wife, and mistreats his dogs, to boot. That’s what they say, anyway. Top doesn’t entirely know what to think about the rumors. He’s too busy settling into his new home, playing baseball and making friends—like Mickey, a black boy who soon becomes his best friend of all.
Everything changes when a shocking murder turns the town, along with Top and Mickey’s lives, upside down. Neighbors show their true colors. Shaky Man’s secrets are revealed. Through it all, Top learns again and again just how confusing and unfair the world can be. A tale of childhood set in the 1960s, Shaky Man timelessly reaffirms the basic goodness of humanity and the importance of friendship and compassion in the face of prejudice.
If you want to know more about the book you can check it out on GoodReads or my website - http://marksparker.com/. I'd like to see honest ratings and reviews within two weeks of receipt. Thanks for your interest, Mark

They are Dark Fiction...but with a bit of wit...
Flight of destiny Is a collection of short stories about misfortune. They are characterized by unexpected final twists, that come at the end of each tale. They are dark and surreal tales, set around the world, at different time periods. They show a world in which anything can happen. It is hard to determine reality and what is going on a disturbed mind. People's conceptions about morality are turned upside down. A good person can be transformed by an unexpected event into a bad person and then back again to their former state. The high and mighty often deliver flawed arguments, those considered wicked make good representations of themselves. Revenge is often a subject explored.

Here's the blurb:
By 2093 American life is a strange mix of failing technologies, psychic predictions, and radiation induced abilities. Tattoos are mandatory to differentiate two classes, privileged and slave.
Dalton Battista fears that his fading tattoo is a deadly omen. He’s either the heir of the brutal tyrant of the new capital city, Exodia or he’s its prophesied redeemer. Shy, handsome, smart and in possession of powers he doesn’t yet realize, he escapes an order for his execution by fleeing the city with the help of Lydia, who quickly captures his heart. But can he escape a destiny that will force him to marry another girl and return to Exodia as its liberator?
Based loosely on the ancient story of Moses, this two book dystopian journey (EXODIA and OUT OF EXODIA) crosses genres, combining young adult, new adult, sci-fi, magical realism, and speculative fiction for an adventure full of symbolism, hidden codes, and thematic imagery.

I would appreciate your honest review of my novel SETH. I self-published the book on KDP Select and Createspace. The Amazon link is http://amzn.to/1LAaBsy.
SETH is the story of a former tough marine and a beautiful, dangerous assassin. It is also a tender love story.
Summary:
Seth, powerfully built with intense blue eyes and close-cropped hair, was a marine veteran torn open by the pain of PTSD. He wanted to escape and recapture his life before the demons consumed him. Working as a police officer, they called him into a new battle to regain control of the city from a drug cartel. He said no. First, he had to save himself.
When his father was threatened, Seth joined the fight. Still, his demons would not leave him. The only chance he had was to hit the open road and find peace.
Angel, beautiful with cascading black hair signaling her Hispanic heritage, was once an unloved orphan. She finally found love only to have it brutally taken away from her. Revenge consumed her. Her exploits tracking down her sister’s killer became legendary and soon she became the best of the best—a cartel assassin.
She never tasted defeat. Angel once traveled halfway around the world to honor her pledge to find the monster enslaving young girls. Now she gave her most important pledge—kill Seth and save the city for the cartel.
Becoming an assassin came at a cost for Angel. Love became a foreign equation for her. She used men but never loved them. Then she met Seth.
Unforeseen circumstances changed everything. Forced to fight side by side, Seth and Angel battled a new enemy. Victory at hand, they kept their guns and faced off against each other. It was time for Angel to kill Seth.
Then fate played her hand.
About the Author:
JB Morris saw corruption in government, taught military tactics, and witnessed the violence of homicide. He pooled his experiences to write the novel SETH. JB blogs at http://www.jbmorrisbooks.com.
Please send me a message here on Goodreads or an email to jbmorris37@gmail.com and indicate your eBook format preference (MOBI or PDF). It would be helpful if I could receive your Amazon and Goodreads reviews within four weeks.

Blurb:
Nineteen-year-old Elizabeth ‘Beta’ Camden is a survivor.
When the E’mani—those pale alien freaks—destroy Earth with a plague of madness and scoop up the remains, Beta is one of the ‘lucky’ ones. For years, she endures their tortures, experiments and games. Then one day, she manages to escape their ship with her life, and no memory of her time with them.
Stranded on their world, Beta wanders the mountains, looking for a way home. She stumbles onto the Fost—the E’mani’s ancient enemy. Their war with the Imani is old and rooted in magic that the Fost once had and the Imani crave. Magic Beta soon discovers she’s developing along with strange tattoos and disturbing glimpses of her past. The Fost take her in and train her in their ways. As she spends more time with them, she falls in love with their culture and with Marin—he of the hot hands and slit eyes.
But the E’mani took her for a reason and they want her back—dead or alive. If Beta doesn’t remember that reason soon, they’re all going to die.

I'm seeking reviews for my second novel, The Brothers Connolly. I will gladly mail a copy to the first handful (5?) of responders. It is a novel of literary aspirations, focused on the creation of character, setting, and the quality of prose. The blurb:
Follow the sad strains of song emanating from the drinking holes of Dublin and the farm fields of Wallonia, drifting across the ocean and ringing down through the generations, settling finally into a somber hum along the banks of Lake Michigan. Little Napawaupee, Wisconsin is the hometown you all remember, where the hottest action going is high school football or statutory rape and booze is the salve for what Jesus can’t heal.
Jack Connolly has spent the past twenty years of his life in New York City, failing as a playwright, failing at love, and generally debauching his name. Now he’s finally compelled to come crawling back home, where he must rediscover these people that are his family – these Connollys of Napawaupee; royals of a cast-off kingdom, curators of an inbred knowledge, the keepers of a dull flame . . .

The Necklace - The Dusky Club, June 1962
What if you could travel back into the past to meet the man of your dreams at a time when it would be possible for him to fall in love with you?
Susan does just that when she meets two ladies from Haiti while on a cruise with her childhood friend, Lynn. Mika, the elderly of the two ladies claims she can see into Susan’s soul, and that if she sends her back in time to meet James, the man who Susan has dreamed of for fifty years, Susan will learn something important about him and about herself.
Susan travels back to the year 1962 in her 17-year-old body where she meets James, age 20, who is part of a band who will one day become the most famous band of all time. Susan is stunned and delighted when James is instantly drawn to her, inviting her out for coffee and offering to walk her back to her hotel after the band quits playing for the night.
But much to her consternation, Susan’s 17-year-old hormones begin to play havoc with her 62-year-old brain, tempting her towards a relationship with James that she’s not really certain she wants.
Will James end up to be the paragon Susan’s always thought him to be? Or, will she learn that sometimes when a dream comes true, that it’s not quite what you expected?

You will follow the adventures of the Chance family from the year 2185 back to 1984 in the first installment of the Hathmec series. Their mission is to find the lost charms of the alien hathmec and use its power to fight the oppression that exists in the future.
It has received great reviews on Amazon and I hope to continue that trend with Goodreads.
If you are interested in receiving a copy, please either reply here, PM me, or you can e-mail me at hathmec@yahoo.com. I am looking for reviews within 8 - 12 weeks of sending the free copy.
Give it a chance - I think you'll enjoy the journey.


Thanks Bonnye! I will gift the book to you before the end of the week.

I am currently working on the sequel to my debut novel also. I have had some wonderful reviews and am pleased at the feedback. Here is a link to my novel and it is available also on Nook as it is Kindle. I would be happy to provide up to 3 copies with the hope for a review post the reading. It is considered romantic suspense, or drama. It isn't about sex at all, and has a great plot and storyline of a kidnapping by Columbian Drug Lords. Please feel free to comment or email me if interested.
The Wild Card

Settled down in a trailer park far from her family, Delilah never intended to return to her hometown, let alone hitchhike cross country with Wes, her friend and drug dealer. However, when Delilah's high school girlfriend commits suicide and leaves her a mysterious box that needs to be delivered to Sedona, Arizona, all that changes.
If anyone is interested in reading and reviewing it let me know and I'll send you a copy :)

I wanted to alert folks that I am offering free Kindle downloads of Bumbling Bea, my debut novel Saturday, November 21 and Sunday November 22 through Amazon. Bumbling Bea is a humorous story about an unlikely friendship between two girls drawn to each other by their love of theatre. Hope you'll look us over and thanks!

So I wrote a YA speculative fiction novel called Project Sparta. This GR is a great idea! Right now I am checking the proofs of the physical book but I can send a PDF for review. I would really really appreciate any honest feedback/reviews.
But anyway here's a synopsis:
NOTHING IS AS IT SEEMS
As soon as Xander Whitt entered the Compound, he no longer existed.
Alongside nine other adolescent prodigies, he would be forged into the US government’s deadliest weapon - no matter the cost.
Five years after Project Sparta, Xander hunts a rising terrorist, codenamed Agent Zero, who is plotting an attack on Washington, DC.
With the clock ticking, Xander and his fellow recruits must play Agent Zero’s game of cat and mouse to stop the attack before it is too late.
But when the Spartans discover Agent Zero is one of them, who can Xander trust?

No strings. Take it and read it at your leisure. At the end of the book I have added the first chapter of the book I am currently writing, just to try and get you excited about it. I'm excited about it, because I think it will kick a... erm... butt. Even more butt than Fantastic Fiction but that's a good starting point to familiarise yourself with my imagination.

'To Enter The Path' is FREE on Kindle Unlimited or just $2.99. I am also interested in exchanging some free copies for honest reviews. Please pm me or email Sfloresbook@gmail.com if you are interested!

The first book in my postmodern superhero saga Zephyr (currently at six volumes and counting) is always free here http://www.amazon.com/Zephyr-Phase-On....
Zephyr has consistently high reviews and a small but loyal following and I am always eager to get more readers keen on what's been called "Superheroes in the world of American Psycho." It's welcomed by readers of grown up comic writers like Alan Moore and Mark Millar and transgressive writers like Chuck Pahlaniak and Bret Easton Ellis.
If my other books pique your interest please drop me a line if you're interested in reviews. @werewiking on Twitter.

Hope you are having a good read.
I have my book available for free download in this website. If want to read a weird and confused man fighting for crimes he has not done with mysteries end and thrilling beginning and continuous blames by three others, just go for it.
Enjoy!

I have a FREE superhero book which I would love people to read and (hopefully) review. The book is called Falcon Boy and Bewilder Bird versus Dr Don't Know in a Battle for all the Life of all the Planets and is free to download from Amazon http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0... and Smashwords https://www.smashwords.com/books/view.... As one very kind reviewer has already noted:
'Within the first few pages of Falcon Boy and Bewilder Bird vs Dr Don’t Know in a Battle for all the Life of all the Planets, by Barnaby Taylor, I realized I was in another absurd world, missing the rules of normal life, where just about anything could happen.'
'Falcon Boy (A Fairly Hopeless Hero) [...] defies categorization. At one level, it’s a children’s book about a super-hero of sorts who really isn’t very good at what he does. On another, it’s very adult, the writer having a wry eye for the ridiculousness of life. Things happen just because the author – who is often present in the story as a commentator – decide they should. Characters seem familiar but [...] they aren’t necessarily what they seem. They also have lives of their own…several of them have Twitter accounts!'
'I haven’t laughed so much reading a book in some time. Falcon Boy isn’t going to be to all readers’ taste [but] if you know where to look for a tattoo to identify a dead bishop, understand that the Frog & Peach is in Yorkshire for the parking, or believe that Rocky & Bullwinkle is a cartoon for adults, you may want to read it, or at least read it to your kids.'

Many thanks

My first ebook is Game Play, which is a collection of erotica shorts with elements of horror and the paranormal. The second is Sing The Blues, which is based on Game Play with more horror than erotica. It is available on pre-order on Amazon. Game Play is available for free download on Lulu. I can send files to anyone who would like to read them! I've been struggling to obtain reviews for both books (ironic because I'm a book reviewer myself.) :)

I have a 33 Chapter plus Epilogue novel that has had a lot of editing already and feedback from two beta readers. I have edited and revised every chapter at least twice. The first chapter has had literally dozens of editing passes!
In an effort to strengthen the novel further and try to build interest in it I have posted the book cover text and first chapter here:
https://www.goodreads.com/story/show/...
I will post more chapters if there is interest.

In Dublin, Ireland, deadly consequences and a rush for vengeance -- for one stalker, five victims, and an ex-priest whose sins are catching up with him fast.
Fifteen storeys in the air, crane operator Tommy Reynolds is up to more than shifting concrete and steel on a building site. He has his eagle eye on the apartments opposite. Tommy doesn’t just watch his victims; he films and he follows, and he listens, too. Soon he's worming his way into their lives... but his victims, busy with their own troubles, don't realise what he's doing.
Maggie Preston’s trouble comes with the reappearance of Cathal Mac Liam, the serial sex abuser who destroyed her childhood and blighted her life. The ex-priest's actions soon cause heartache for Tommy's other victims, too... but they're not going to take it anymore.
Read High Crimes, the tale of two ruthless predators whose victims fight back -- and you'll always wonder: Who's watching who, and what would you do?

I have a science fiction book in need of reviews.
Synopsis:
A young girl with ambition.
A desperate man on a mission.
An ancient enemy set to wipe out their entire race.
When a seemingly simple space rescue mission turns into a nightmare, Falaha, a Danna Commander Trainee with a power she can't use properly yet, has her skills put to the ultimate test as her world begins to collapse, throwing her to the center of the conflict that might wipe out her entire race.
The Danna are a species of humanoid aliens who share the Milky Way with humanity. Unlike humans, they have been around for at least three billion years and are the oldest species in the Galaxy. Born with an alien artifact in their blood, they possess abilities surpassing anything any living creature can dream of. However, both their superb space technology and their unusual blood legacy have attracted danger no one expected. Abandoning their home Galaxy, the remaining population sets out in secrecy to their last resort, Kan Diona, the place to witness their victory or to become their grave.
