Book review of Grimm End

Grimm End by S T Cameron

Book price : $3.99 
3 Stars out of 5 Stars
This book mostly had to do with shapeshifters, zombies, and magic users. It seems to be about this girl who comes to the town because of a crime her brother did, but there is no connection to the rest of the story, other then the cause of her death. There is mild swearing, and this girl named Sara accused of everything bad that's happen to her family as it was because of Supernatural things were the cause of it. Just about everyone is not who they seem, like the cougar.   
I would recommend the book to people that like mystery/fantasy genre, shapeshifters, Zombies, Magic, Adventures and/or werewolves 
read from 7/11-20/14

About the author : I tell stories and have adventures.

When I was a little boy, I would tell stories and have adventures in the backyard pretending I was in a circus in front of an audience of my family and neighbors. In elementary school, more stories and adventures were played out on the stage in front of my class and, sometimes, the entire school.

In High School and College, I donned my glasses and disguised my super writer self in my computer nerd persona and while I still told stories and had adventures, they were never made publicly known.

Many years later, I decided that it was time to remove my disguise and let my stories out in the world again. My first adventure, Grimm End, was published in 2012 with four more Grimm End novels planned for 2014 through 2015. CJ Kask, the 106 year old explorer from Grimm End, also appears as an eleven-year-old adventurer in Young Explorers and the Inca Wraith, the first book of the Young Explorers series which was published in 2013. In addition, a sprawling swords and sorcery fantasy novel series and a number of computer thrillers will appear over the next several years.

Book review of Heirs of the prophecy

Heirs of the prophecy (The Prophecies Series Book 1) Michael A. Rothman

4 Stars out of 5 Stars
This is one interesting book. A family was on vacation when there was a rock slide in the cave they were exploring. They then are transported to a land stuck in the dark ages where there is magic. Unfortunately for them, a dark wizard wants to kill them, as they all got magical powers, including their cat when they came to the new land. Some things seem to repeat themselves, and there are some spelling errors, but other than that, I found this as a great read  
I would recommend the book to people who like magic, wizards, dwarfs, and/or elves

About the author :

I’ve been writing throughout my career as an engineer, however my writing had been relegated to technical books and technical magazine articles. Heck, you might even find a couple of those musty tomes still for sale if you look hard enough.

With my foray into epic fantasy, I’ve shed the shackles of technical writing and created novels that I hope will be attractive to a much wider audience.

I’ve always admired truly epic tales. You know the ones I mean. The book you crack open, wander through and utterly get immersed in. The story takes you on twists and turns you never expected, run into dead-ends that make you wheel your arms backward to prevent you from falling into an endless abyss. By the time you reach what you think is the end, you’ve read hundreds of pages and realize the end is really only the beginning of the story.

Book review of island of the blessed

Island of the blessed by Nancy Farmer

4 Stars out of 5 Stars
I would not have read this book, or book 2 of this series if my school library hadn't gotten them, as I originally thought that the sea of trolls wasn't part of a series. Anyways, I liked this book because they went to places that they hadn't gone before, and met new enemies that they had to battle. More about the mermaid is revealed, and what happened to her  
I would recommend the book to people who've read other books in this series, and people that like magic

Book review of Sword Bearer

Sword Bearer (Return of the Dragons) by Teddy Jacobs

Book price :
3 Stars out of 5 Stars
This was a somewhat interesting read for me. It has to do with Anders who was learning magic, then something odd happens, and then he has to get away from the dark lord's minions while Anders is haunted in his dreams by the dark lord. Some parts are confusing, like there was this one person who could help him with a problem, or send him to someone who could help him better. After he tell the person his problem, he gets sent away without knowing the way to the better person that could help him. He also has a faerie sword, it held back information back, as Anders didn't ask her and some one died because of it.

the land of the silver apples by Nancy Farmer

5 Stars out of 5 Stars
This was a good sequel to the sea of trolls. This was mix of the 1st book and the story of King Arthur. There were more mythical creatures that weren't in the sea of trolls. I liked the adventure Jack went through and I can't wait to read book 3. 
I would recommend the book to people that like the story of King Arthur, Norse Mythology, Magic, or Adventure

Book review of Magic's Guardian

Magic's Guardian by Barbara Mason 

 

3 Stars out of 5 Stars
It was a interesting read about these medieval travelers that find the land of the elves. I gave this book 3 stars for some swearing and taking about people on a ship giving them Erotic feelings. So I stopped  reading it, just encase it began to describe porn.    
I would recommend the book to people who really like  elf books

Book Review of The Key to Rondo

The Key to Rondo by Emily Rodda

 
5 Stars out of 5 Stars
This was an interesting book about this boy who follows his cousin after the blue queen who took her dog after breaking the rules of the music box. They end up in Rondo where things aren't as they seem. In there it's a spin off of fairy tales like once upon a time. Over all, it was a cool and funny book.

Book Review of Castle in the Air

Castle in the Air by Diana Wynne Jones
5 Stars out of 5 Stars
This was a great read. Hints at the Chrestomanci series. Abdullah must on a quest to save flower-in-the-night from the princess stealing djinn. Soon things literally unravel like a carpet. A sultan who gives death penalties like being put on a 40 ft pole. As usually with genies be careful what you with for, or you might get it all
