New Yorker in Xena Times.,
This review is from: Damsel in the Rough (Amazon Warrior Sarmatian) (Paperback)
The main character is Tasha M. Fidelli, a fun-loving Brooklynite in her mid-twenties. Not late teens when most of us knew everything to succeed in life. Late twenties when most of us feel the world pushing us down. Not Tasha though, she marches with "Life is forward." and works all the angles. Daddy pays, Mama prays, and Tasha sways in her own rascal adventures. One day, the gods send Tasha backwards into the age of gods, women warriors, and hardships galore. There's no hand-out from Daddy, or food mart for convenience, or charities for the down-on-their-lucks. Welcome to the Rough.This action story builds up steam like a rollercoaster ride, painting intense situations and somehow marrying them with humor. Then, whoosh! An adventure, Amazon Warrior tale, romance, survival book, alternative medicine plug, and a great story with a murder mystery packed inside. Overall, I loved it! Keep going, Tempesta!

An Original Adventure,
By Eleanor A. Whitehurst (Denver, CO USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Damsel in the Rough (Amazon Warrior Sarmatian) (Paperback)
Damsel in the Rough was one of the most original adventure books I've read in a long time. Tasha, the heroine, seems like a normal Brooklyn college student at the beginning. But soon she is having encounters with gods and goddesses--and is in ancient Greece, herself! As the book winds along, Tasha rises to meet challenge after challenge; and she meets various friends and foes along the way as she has one breath-taking adventure after another. The only complaint I had was that once it was over, I felt the story cried out for an immediate sequel!

Refreshingly different.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Damsel in the Rough (Amazon Warrior Sarmatian) (Paperback)
Distinct and affecting characters. Unlike many adventure fictiontales, this novel pays homage to the spirit of survival, the spirit of will that is not always so perfect and superhuman. Our family enjoys Tasha Fidelli and hope to see a sequel soon.
