REVIEW

 

I was reading The Peacock Door with my son, who really loves to read but he gets bored so easily. When I saw how long this book was I got worried he would just quit reading but he was so intrigued to see what happened next that he finished the whole book. I loved the characters, my son related a lot to one of the boy character, Levi, I however thought he was more like Ivan. I enjoyed the twists and turns that this book provided and with my easily bored son to enjoy and finish this book I give this 5 pots of gold out of 5!

Review

 

I had a bit of trouble in the beginning, I hate the back and forth between the characters; you think you are reading on one character and then it like jumps to another character. I don't like that, but once I got used to the book switching back and forth I began to really enjoy it. The struggle of the characters fighting for good; you just don't realize the bad person is a good person. I think my favorite character is Burn, he seems like such an outcast yet he is the one person you would want next to you. Maybe that is just me, but his character is moving. Sora is a bad ass but I'm not sure she gets independence is not all it is cracked up to be, the cat's eye is something that I think haunts her. I have not gotten to finish this book; so don't ruin the last few chapters for me. Thank you to the author for allowing me to read this. I'm rooting for Burn & Sora (I also need to catch up on the beginning of the series-- seems I always hit a series in the middle).

Review:

 

I thought the book was going to be a downer from the beginning but seriously finding a man chained in a cellar that right there took my interest! I see three sisters that are nothing a like and have to go on an adventure against an evil queen. I'm still in middle of this book and I am doing my best to take it slow because I don't want it to end, I don't know if there are any more books but I want to find out. I don't want to give the book away (and don't spoil the ending for me!) So for now until I finish my last five chapters, I give this book 4 pots of gold out of 5

Author Bio

When I was younger, I never knew what I wanted to be when I grew up. Part of my reason for dropping out of college was because I didn’t know what to major in. I was envious of my sister who knew from an early age, she was going to major in math. Good for her, but math was the last subject on my mind. I joined the Navy and found a track I liked. I became a photographer. I covered local news items, accidents, and even shot portraits. It was fun, but not a career path. When I got out of the Navy, I wanted to finish college but I was lost again. What to major in? I chose accounting because all businesses needed it and I went on to get my Bachelor’s and an MBA. After working in the field for a year, I went back in the Navy and asked for any assignment other than accounting. It worked. After 22 years in the Navy, I retired. My husband and I moved into our motorhome and hit the road. Unfortunately, he passed away and I went back to work at a government job. Then I found writing. I hadn’t written a thing since I was 14 but I was smitten by the bug and have been writing ever since. “Gossamer” is the sixth book I’ve had published and is the third book in a four book series, “The Chronicles of Eledon.” Hope you enjoy it. I had fun writing it.

Book Review

When asked about this tour I was like "huh sounds strange never heard of Gossamer let alone know what that means,' so I told Ms. Majanka bring it on, I'd like to do a review. Now imagine I had no idea what it was about so imagine my surprise at the fact that this book is about Elves!

I have not read the first two books (I'm already on it, I promise!) Back to the book!

As I have said, I did not read the first two books, but thankfully even though the author builds up to this book I was not completely lost on what was going on. Our lead character Alexin is this warrior, half mortal, half elf, and somewhere in the mix is Titan. Is it me or did Hercules just get voted off Survial Island? Alexin can fight, she is learning how to survive her heritage (aren't we all?) and somewhere in there not only does someone want her dead but Alexin must also fix the enterance to Seaward Isle and Eledon. She is only eighteen, all of her counter parts are at least one thousand years old. Talk about serious stress!

I could not put this book down and I am going to go back to the begining to get the whole wonderful story! I give this book five pots of gold out of five! I'm addicted and I can't wait for more to come.
