The Vampire's Hope
The Vampire’s Hope by Danica Winters
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Death was getting more interesting by the second.

Ellie wanders into The Raven a human dancer looking for a job, but emerges a newly turned vampire. Hidden within the tunnels of her new home, the Keres Den, she discovers secrets and something she’s not thought she could anymore — feelings.

The main character, Ellie, is emotionally shut off, both to herself and readers of her story. She starts to feel again, using her vampire power of hope, with the help of Ian, the striking Viking. The action takes place quickly (it is a short read, mind), with Ellie taking to the vampire way of life rather quickly, including calling humans “blood buckets” without even hearing the term before.

In the end, The Vampire’s Hope shows that hope (and love) is a beautiful thing, and leaves Ellie to pick up the pieces of her new life.

Blurb:

Drawing is her world…but when her new pencil comes alive, it’s his world too.

Her… Storey Dalton is seventeen and now boyfriendless after being dumped via Facebook. Drawing is her escape. It’s like as soon as she gets down one image, a dozen more are pressing in on her. Then she realizes her pictures are almost drawing themselves…or is it that her new pencil is alive?

Him… Eric Jordan is a new Ranger and the only son of the Councilman to his world. He’s crossed the veil between dimensions to retrieve a lost stylus. But Storey is already experimenting with her new pencil and what her drawings can do – like open portals.

It… The stylus is a soul-bound intelligence from Eric’s dimension on Earth and uses Storey’s unsuspecting mind to seek its way home, giving her an unbelievable power. She unwittingly opens a third dimension, one that held a dangerous predatory species banished from Eric’s world centuries ago, releasing these animals into both dimensions.

Them… Once in Eric’s homeland, Storey is blamed for the calamity sentenced to death. When she escapes, Eric is ordered to bring her back or face that same death penalty. With nothing to lose, can they work together across dimensions to save both their worlds? Continue reading CBLS Blog Tour: Design Series →

Noah Zarc: Cataclysm
Noah Zarc: Cataclysm by D. Robert Pease
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

“This is how you get things done. Find the right people, put them in a room, lock the doors, and throw lots of money at them.”

Noah is off to find out more about his past when he accidentally finds himself in the wrong place at the wrong time. Caught between finding his family and his curiosity about his past, Noah does what any bot his age would — head off on a dangerous, exciting adventure.

A good follow-up to book one, book two follows Noah as he meets new friends, encounters old enemies, and travels through space and time on his quest. Full of action, Noah and his can-do attitude shine, reaffirming that even the smallest, most handicapped-looking people can make a difference.

A well-written, adventurous read for young readers and even adults, Noah Zarc blasts through space and into your imagination.
