I've done a review of the excellent Nadir's Zenith comic books. They're a fantastic sci-fi series.

Thank you Stephen!!
This may shed some light on the situation. http://topoftheheapreviews.com/we-are-back/ With the exception of a authors that I KNOW are tried and true, I won't be doing work from "indie" authors anymore. There was so much junk that was sent I couldn't stand it, so from now on, agent or publishing company requests only is the way I'm going to keep things straight. I've accepted 5 books today, physical copies, so I've got a short list of about 10 books at the moment. |

Thankfully, I kept ONE first time author books, and it's actually quite good. I'm about done with it. Epitaph of Jonas Barloff is what this one is called. A good YA horror novel. My only fear is that it ends in something like "and I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you meddling kids!" |

BookFreebies.com
Hi everyone,
My friend and I have built a website called BookFreebies.com where we are hoping to build a community of eBook fans, specifically through social media such as Facebook and Twitter. Our goal is to link up with as many readers as possible. We are hoping that, in time, our website can become a platform for authors to advertise their books completely for free. Being authors ourselves, we know how difficult it is to get our books out there in front of readers. Having as large a reader base as possible will help those authors to get their work out there to the people that love reading - that's you, hopefully. Here is the link to our website: http://bookfreebies.com We are very interested in feedback from people as to what they might like from the site. Thanks for your time. |

Did a childrens book review on Saturday, and today I posted this:
A fantastic YA read that for me brought back memories of a little Hardy Boys, a little Goonies, and a little Tom and Huck! Check it out! http://topoftheheapreviews.com/a-sta...r-ben-woodard/ |

Did an interview with Indie short story author and mobile read user on occasions, Derek Odom!
http://topoftheheapreviews.com/tuesd...th-derek-odom/ Also....a book with letters to home from a WWII vet is surely to pull on the heart strings....right?? http://topoftheheapreviews.com/love-...karen-swanson/ Last edited by jhempel24; 05-15-2013 at 04:31 AM. |
