Review

Destiny's Forge is book 1 in the SF/vampire fusion series Children of The Dragon. This is the current edition and supercedes all others. --Author

"I struck out reading the 1st book Destiny's Forge and found myself hurrying to turn the page. And now that this one is finished, I can't wait to read the next. Yes, it's that good!" --Martha A. Cheves, "A Book and A Dish"

I've read some pretty good vampire novels from Anne Rice and Barbara Hambly, among others, but this innovative retelling of the popular vampire genre blew me away. It was better than any of those.  It was better than I hoped it could be.  Get a copy of Destiny's Forge for yourself today. -- Ravenhurst, Novelcritic.com --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

From the Author

Destiny's Forge was originally inspired by a series of science fiction television shows and films, but is loosely based on original short stories featuring completely original characters and situations, and forms the basis for the current series of books. This book also introduces some of the characters featured in later books of the series.

This book is not intended for young readers under the age of 17 and contains blood, violence, and mild suggestive content. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

More About the Author

I am an author, illustrator and publisher with an avid interest in science fantasy adventure, history, mythology, and science; and a skeptical interest in pseudoscience and paranormal research. I write in a strong cinematic style with the mission to intellectually stimulate as well as entertain.

My current projects include the Children of The Dragon series of SF/vampire fusion books, a chronicle of the Xosan, vampires from the planet Antellus who were once human but were transformed by a dragon's blood. They are stories of science fiction, fact and fantasy, myth and history, romance, tragedy and triumph; linked together by the theme of the vampire as hero. Books in this series are: Destiny's Forge, To Taste The Dragon's Blood, NAGRASANTI Illustrated Vampire Omnibus, Red Dragon, The Queen's Marksman, A Pirate's Daughter, Truth and The Dragon's Blood, and Written In Blood. I am working on the 9th book Swords of The Dragon's Blood, due to come out soon.

Another project is the Saxon & Hampstead Investigations, Ltd. mystery series.
Valiant Saxon is a repentent jewel thief turned private eye. Laura Hampstead is a seasoned professional investigator. Together they operate an agency specializing in solving the unsolvable and getting to the truth behind the legend. Their cases often take them off the beaten path, and there is an undercurrent of romantic tension between our heroes, making their adventures all the more appealing to an ardent mystery lover. My first casebook is The Mystery of Cranewood Manor. I am working on the second book, The Mystery of The Missing Masterpiece to be published in Fall.

I also write nonfiction on genre related subjects like history, mythology and science. My latest books include A BOOK OF FIVE RINGS: A Practical Guide to Strategy by Miyamoto Musashi, PRINCIPLES OF SELF-PUBLISHING 3rd Edition and The Ten Percent Solution: Simplifying the Tax Code in The New Economy. I am working on five other books; all in varying stages of progress.

This review is from: Destiny's Forge (Children of The Dragon) (Kindle Edition)

Destiny's Forge is a really good science fiction book to read.

The author does a great job slowly unveiling critical plot elements. Reading this plotline is like peeling an onion. There seems to more layers under layers. This is a good writing style for the author to use.

The plot holds danger, intrigue, space flight and holds your attention through the entire book. The characters seem like real people and the protagonist is well written. The main character is female and the author does a great job rolling out a strong adventurous story line breaking the mold that adventurer's must be male to be taken seriously.

This is a strong 4 star book and you will feel like you got your money's worth after buying a copy.

Put this book in your top ten science fiction books to read this year.
