Harnessing Altruism by Sava Buncic (Book Review #284)
The storyline is a good representation of what could happen if global warming hits us to a point where we begin to lose what matters to us most. How civil war could ruin everything we hold dear to us and how if at that stage we don’t manage to work together, we could lose everything.
I particularly enjoyed the plot as it was well thought out, and the steady pace kept you wanting to know more. Alongside, the world setting and good quality literature, I also picked up on the style of which the author managed to include emotions and personality into the book.
I believe a strong dystopian novel, as this was, there could not have been a better-suited plot and layout for the story. I highly recommend this book to anyone that enjoys reading dystopian futuristic stories.

The Pariah Child and the Ever-Giving Stone by Natasha Lane (Book Review #426)
This imaginary world begins with its unique setting and its creatures. The characters were standing out from the start and the descriptive nature of the literature was very appealing. The book cover suited its audience and from its dialogue, it was apparent that the young adult spectators are going to enjoy it.
I was surprised from the ending and the journey it took me. I was not expecting to enjoy it as much as I did and praise the author for creating such a beautiful world. The literature had a nice flow to it and it was easy to understand. The author did not overwhelm the plot with extra sideline characters or storylines in order to fluff up her work. She focused on the main objection and emphasized on its core nature, creating a wonderful story.
I recommend this book to fantasy readers and young adult fans.

No Way Back – The Underworlds by Dennis Scheel (Book Review #285)
At first, I felt that the storyline was rushed. Almost immediately, the gate is created, and Dan is trapped on the other side. It is only after a long period of time, where you get some backstory or any indication of how this whole thing came to be about.
I enjoyed the storyline and the character interaction between Daniel and Denida. There is a sweet connection between the two, and the subtext of the content has a humorous touch to it. This made the story to be more appealing. The literature was strong. However, I did notice some editing issues, especially in the first chapter.
I believe anyone that enjoys reading science fiction novels and storylines that involve world traveling will thoroughly enjoy this book.

Gustave Flaubert: The Ambiguity of Imagination by Giuseppe Cafiero (Book Review #425)
I thoroughly enjoyed this story. It is probably the second time where I read something similar to this concept. Here, Harel is upset about the author writing a novel which he never finished, leaving him as an incomplete character.
One thing is for sure, the literature was strong, and I believe that if the reader is not familiar with the author’s writing, then they would find it difficult to follow through. The author creates strong characters that each work on its own, presenting a convincing hold on to the storyline. The workflows well, and the piece comes together with a much-delighted ending.
At first, the work may puzzle you. However, after reading a few more pages, you reach an unsuspected depth of emotional turmoil risen from the storyline. This amazing concept innovates your mind and creates this delightful experience which a book should consequently make you feel after reading it.
I recommend this book to people that like stories that are out of their ordinary context.

On the Wing (Talon 2) by Gigi Sedlmayer (Book Review #270)
Things have changed after the birds become Matica’s wings. People in the village are more receptive towards her, and even her parents are becoming acceptable towards the situation. The adventure continues with the beautiful picturesque descriptive nature of the author’s writing, producing this wonderful book of self-discovery and love for animals. This fantasy world has nothing short of being an incredible tale of a little girl and her journey with these birds.
Come Fly with Me (Talon #1) by Gigi Sedlmayer
I thoroughly enjoyed Matica growing and reading about her encounters with the people of the village. I believe the character development is spot on with this tale and that makes this story very special to read. These birds really change her life, and it is lovely to see the effect of how it influences Matica’s confidence and belief in herself.
I recommend this book to young adult readers, bird lovers and fantasy fans.

Codex of Darkness (Tenets of Exile Book 2) by E. P. Stein (Book Review #424)
The complexity of the novel continued to impress me with the lyrical storytelling and descriptive nature of the fantasy. The principle character remained exciting and refreshing.
I believe the author decided to remain on the same path as book one and added more backstory with the additional storyline. The narrative was strong and included exciting magical abilities. I recommend this book to young adult readers and metaphysical visionaries.
Purchasing the two books together would actually benefit the reader in this case, as you really do not want to wait to see what happens after you have read the first book.
