Shepherd is a community of 12,000+ authors and super readers sharing their favorite books with the world.
Seen through the main character's eyes, the author absorbs the reader in the Turkish culture through not just description of location, but conversation, food and archeology. It's almost like we, the reader, are actually there. And the more the main characters discover, the faster the pace, and we get to visit Morocco and Egypt along the way. It ends in a dark confrontation, which for a horror lover like me is the pièce de résistance, and very well executed. And though I had hoped for a happy ending, we are left with a twist, and an opening.
It's a compelling read that takes the reader on a quest of sorts. I really liked the characters and would love to experience their adventures again.
It’s Seb’s last day working in Turkey, but his friend Oz has been cursed. Superstition turns to terror as the effects of the ancient malediction spill over and the lives of Oz and his family hang in the balance. Can Seb find the answers to remove the hex before it’s too late?
From Kev Harrison, author of The Balance and Below, journey with Seb, Oz and Deniz across ancient North African cities as they seek to banish the Shadow of the Hidden.
It is April 1st, 2038. Day 60 of China's blockade of the rebel island of Taiwan.
The US government has agreed to provide Taiwan with a weapons system so advanced that it can disrupt the balance of power in the region. But what pilot would be crazy enough to run…
Even though this book is marketed to children, if you are a lover of stories like The Borrowers or Terry Pratchett's Bromeliad series or Nome Series (Truckers, Diggers, Wings), you will enjoy this too. It follows the plite of a microscopic creature, Rein, as he ventures out of 'Haven' (a houseplant) into the world outside (the garden) in an attempt to find water, and he gets caught up in a big political 'war' of sorts. He is a 'rambler', and they tame ants, and ladybirds, and come up against various other insects.
J R Bee clearly loves insects and knows a lot about them and it comes through in this story, which I enjoyed. It had a good pace, and I found it light and funny. The characters are well developed, and I'm hoping it will turn into a series.
Journey into a world that's right under your feet to find rideable ants, battles with centipedes, insect wranglers, and a good old mystery to unravel!
Drought has struck and Rein’s Mamma, May, has gone missing on her quest for water.
To try and find her, young and sheltered Rein must brave the full force of the summer heat and face The Wilds – a place where all the creatures that would gobble up a young rambler lurk!
But something more sinister than drought is unfolding in the outside world and, to save his Mamma May from these dastardly forces, Rein…
