We don't doubt that it was frustrating for readers to learn about this great new paranormal/ supernatural thriller by self-published author, Ryan Sherwood. We also know that having read our interview with the author can only have whetted your appetite for this book more...
So, we are pleased to announce that this book has now been published for public consumption! Out on 3rd July (as is his previous novel: Hold the Light), all we can say is: it's about time!!!!
Read the book review
Read the author interview
EVER BOUGHT A BOOK ON THE STRENGTH OF THE REVIEWS ON THE BACK???
If you are like us (and probably one of the many thousands of book lovers across the globe) and have had the misfortune of spending your hard-earned cash on an apparent "best-seller"; you will probably also have experienced the dull thud as you bang your head against the wall, thinking "Why did I listen to the reviews on the back?!" The truth is: reviews found on books are usually self-promoting, PR stunt-type hype and not necessarily a true reflection of the books' quality at all.
It is our aim to tell the truth about books, but don't for one second assume that that is synonymous with us creating a blog to 'diss' authors' work - to the contrary - our intention is to provide an honest appraisal of each and every book we read. If the book is any good - it'll get a good review. If it's awful and a tragedy to the literary world - then it won't. It's that simple.
