"The Wolf Tree" by Philip R. Sullivan - Why has Michael Manning left his big-city medical practice and retired early to a farm in rural Maine? And has he really—as viewed by Lesley Jordan, an attractive nurse in nearby Winchendon—reneged on his implied agreement to help his fellow man? An unexpected series of adventures arise as Michael tries to settle into his new community, leading to interactions with Lesley that are touching yet comical. Their story addresses a question that arises inevitably during the course of a human life: does this relationship have any future? (Fiction/Literary)

"Anna's Passion" by Nick Taddeo - Anna’s Napa Valley winery has been suffering debilitating attacks, not from other competing wineries but from an intensely troubled young man. She must take action soon or she will lose everything: the winery, the land, the vines, and the equipment. Even her identity is being threatened. She must figure a way out. It has to be something dramatic, yet simple, but so effective it will set in his brain forever. (Fiction/General)

"A Peaceful, Easy Feeling" by Philip R. Sullivan - His childhood scarred by trauma, Patrick Sayer moved to rural Maine as a young man in search of a simple life close to nature. But now the paper-mill workers have gone on strike, and as money runs low, tempers run high. Patrick is unwittingly snared in the deadly struggle and becomes terrified when his own life is threatened by he knows not whom nor why. He seeks help from those around him, but finds in the end that he needs to achieve his own salvation. (Literary)

"Tunnels of the Deep" by Michael Cole - Deceit and betrayal await a history professor and the beautiful student who convinces him to leave the safety of the classroom and enter the treacherous Amazon jungle. His inner strength is tested by a man who is every bit as much a predator as the giant anacondas that abound in the swampy marshlands they must cross to locate a tunnel. The tunnel not only leads them to an ancient city, but also to a group of natives who have strange powers, which they claim they inherited from the Star Walkers. At first the professor refuses to believe in the legend, but that is before he participates in a ceremony. The rite convinces him the Star Walkers are much more than a myth. (Book Two of The Star Walkers Trilogy) (Action & Adventure)

"The Murders at Castletop" by Cuneyt Ulsever - When three seemingly unrelated murders occur almost simultaneously and are similar in more ways than could possibly be called coincidental, homicide detectives in Istanbul, Ankara, and Antalya, Turkey compare notes, trying to uncover the truth behind the particularly brutal slayings of three men, who once lived together in a shanty town on the outskirts of Istanbul, many years ago. (Mystery)

"The Byzantium Stone" by David Chacko - Samson Mondieu, the designated treasure hunter, is sent to track down a remarkable gemstone. Said to be God-made, it was last seen during the fall of Constantinople. Slowly, Samson comes to realize that what he is searching for is less a mystical object then the bedrock of the secret that drives all the other secrets. But that's not all he will discover. When he delivers The Byzantium Stone to its latest master, he will be forced to choose between love and the promise of forever. (Mystery)

"Sh*t Magnet" by Stephen J. Schrader - Author, Tanker, Soldier...Spy. The life and career of a Spy for the U.S. Army. The author describes a life where the rewards to be earned are as astounding as the price to be paid is devastating. This autobiography reflects the changing world and the United States in the closing decades of the Twentieth Century. (Autobiography)

"Coming Home Again" by Philip R. Sullivan - Coming Home Again is the story of Jud Gerard, an earnest young man who is dying before his time. The chronicle unfolds around the central people in Jud’s life, all very much alive, and all forced to deal vicariously with the issue of their own mortality as they try to help their friend through his final days. The portrayal is candid, yet socked with humor of the sort that’s inherent in our human efforts to find ultimate meaning in life and love and loss. (Fiction/Literary)

"The First Seal" by Stephen J. Schrader - Three thousand years ago, God told Daniel, "Hide these words and put a seal on the book until the end of days." Today, Dr. Tamarah Frenmen has broken the seal and revealed the shocking secrets that lie within the Bible itself. And, the most horrific is that the Antichrist is real. He's an inhuman monster born of science that is ready, willing, and able to storm the gates of Heaven itself. And, by breaking the seal, Dr. Frenmen has just told him how to do it. (Science Fiction/Christian)

While we don't have a length limit for reviews, short works best. 3-4 paragraphs is plenty. Something about 300 or 400 words, maybe. If you've not written a review before, you may want to check out a few on our site. We have at least one review for most authors. Click to any book page, then click on comments. Or click here for a few examples. The first is not a good review, but it is an enthusiastic endorsement. And this kind of copy sells books.

There's no required format, but the best reviews seem to begin with a strong, positive statement about the book. If fiction, at some point provide a brief overview of the tale, something of the plot, but never give away the ending. Be sure to include something of the writer's skills, and, if fiction, how well story characters are handled. Wrap with an enthusiastic recommendation. Else give your reasons for not being able to do so.

Obviously error-free copy is best. But we will edit as necessary.

Be sure to include contact information. An email address at least. And a URL, if you like. Feel free to include a snappy slogan related to your site or work, if you have one.
