Review on Christmas Gift

10/9/2020

Christmas The Gift of Friendship is a great little read full of Christmas cheer!
It seems to be just a good story. There's Christmas cheer, talks of a Christmas play and traditions, presents and lots of fun! It teaches a great lesson of the traditions of Christmas. There's also elves, which is cute.
I enjoyed reading this quirky little tale and I highly recommend picking it up if you are looking for a short read. - Briar's Reviews on Smashwords.

Thank you Briar, I appreciate it.- A. Nation

I enjoyed this fascinating glimpse into another time when the Spokane Street Bridge, in Post Falls, Idaho, collapsed. Often people are unaware of so many interesting aspects of history, and this author has a talent for bringing the past alive.- Jean D.

This tragic incident was something I'd never heard about. The recounted story was well written and not over embellished. The still working flashlight and the events that followed were very interesting. The photos included gave a wonderful perspective of such a sad occurrence.-unknown

"I just finished now read your book ! I love it! I think is amazing idea using historic informations together with ficção is really very interesting! I will dropped a review in Amazon at soon! Thank you for so nice book"-Silvane H.
Though this is a true story, some parts had to be fictionalized to create the settings.- N. A. Nation

Doug's Review on Facebook

4/28/2020

I have read 4 books so far and find them well written and technically quite accurate. As a techie I'm always finding fault in sci fi stories i.e.. So many steam pipes that leak etc or lack of gravity not being dealt with. I find the stories more believable than most. I was raised on Robert a. Heinlein and find these books hard to put down. I have truly enjoyed them for their attention to minor details. The story lines are fresh and exciting. I like that. - Doug M.
