Gratuitous use of base language. Should probably warn those who are not interested in alternative lifestyles about the lesbianism woven into the story.
The story itself is a good one, but I will be discontinuing the series here.

Mr King wades into ick. Strange: I like. Suspenseful: EVERYONE likes. Scary: I like. Parts of this book were distasteful and needlessly "icky." I didn't pick up a King novel/series to read/hear bodice-ripping romance or detailed accounts of bodily functions.
I liked the series up to here, but I won't be finishing. Disappointed

I liked the story itself. The information about the Nephilim was imparted with interest through the story.

The Virtual Voice reader was sometimes agonizingly inaccurate. Job (the Old Testament character & book) is NOT pronounced like the thing you do to make money. Some of the word choice errors were made by the author. I would guess the author didn't have an editor to check for word choice and continuity errors.

Still, the story was a good one even if the finished product was a bit unpolished.

This story is NOT about a post-apocalyptic adventure as much as it is about a father's love and care for his son.
The road is life.
MY dad is nearing the end of his journey and this story touched me like few others.
It plods along in places and there are moments of tension. "Papa" guides his boy through all the dangers.
I didn't love it until I recognized it for the allegory it was.

I read one of Cherie. Priest's short stories (Tanglefoot) and loved it... so when I saw a novel by her here, I had to give it a go.

Try anything she writes. If you like steampunk, you won't be sorry.

This is the first novel I've read by Cherie Priest. I read one of her short stories and liked it, so when I saw this title, I gave it a shot
The characters are well-developed. The science is interesting without being too heavy.
There's a twist at the end...

I'm going to continue the series.

Perhaps a little over-acted. The story was good but the dramatization was a bit much for my taste.

Straight from Literotica... except I didn't know that's what I was getting. The story would be good even with the sex incorporated. But it feels so crass. It's unrefined. I'm considering quittting this read... I'll probably go a little more before I decide... I hate to quit a story.

The story of James Reece continued in this story reads much like Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six (one of my favorites).
As Reece continues with each mission he inevitably is motivated by some circumstance (no spoilers) to continue on to the next mission, surgically removing the cancerous parts of society who prey on humanity using political and economic power.
In this mission, like Rainbow Six, the operators must thwart a WMD and track down those responsible.
Some people just NEED to die...

This epic tale rivals the Wheel of Time and The Fellowship of the Rings for its character development, it's depth of plot and its complex and unique magic. If you liked those, you'll enjoy this story as well.
