I just finished the Palmyra Impact. I really liked it and will read the two others books.
Boyd, thank you for this book. I hope that you will get published and that you will keep writing Here the review I left on Goodreads : Quite good. The author did some serious research for this book and it shows nicely. The main characters were all a little bit too polished and artificial for my taste; I never really connected to them. I liked a lot more some of the secondary characters. But the fast paced story more than make up for that. I couldn’t put the book down till late at night, and finished it in less than two days. A great reading, you might want to set it aside for your next beach vacations. As a plus, you will learn what to do if a tsunami is coming your way. |

I just finished The Palmyra Impact. I couldn't put it down, even though it made me horribly anxious about the lovely Hawaii I remember from my honeymoon!
Many thanks for the book! Good stuff! |

Thanks, ErwinOtten! The Adamas Blueprint is more of a ordinary-guy-in-an-extraordinary-situation kind of story, rather than a sprawling action/adventure like The Ark. |

Congratulations Mr. Morrison. From the feedback here, it is well deserved.
I also wish to commend you on how you've handled yourself in this forum. You have displayed a good deal of character and honor. You worked with the readers to deliver different formats to allow a wide audience to read your books for free. You also allowed those same readers to promote and praise your book as opposed to constant self-promotion and thread bumping. By allowing your talent and hard work to speak for you, you have become a shining example for other aspiring writers. May you find continued success in your writing career. |
