Review by: Walter Lazo on April 06, 2013 :
This one is a bit difficult to rate as it came off more as an outline to a story than a story in its own right. Still, it is very intriguing and full of nice visuals and ideas. It has great potential and can easily be fleshed out into a full novel.

Review by: Rob Wilkins on Jan. 09, 2013 :
This sci-fi tale was great fun to read through, playing with some creative ideas. The kind of tale that would have fitted nicely into a classic Star Trek episode, it reads like a fictional history that only concentrates on the interesting bits (don't you wish real history books were like that?). A mellow and entirely enjoyable read overall.

Review by: Michael Carter on Sep. 17, 2012 :
Seglaman the Snow God is an inter-planetary deity who is taking over worlds left right and centre. However, on one particular world he has become complacent, and doesn't plan on any resistance. After all, who could fight against a Snow God and his 24,000 Snow Warriors...?

A DIVINE TALE is another fun fantasy/sci-fi story that is filled with invention. There is more of an emphasis on humour here, and some strong visual images.

I see it as kind of a cross between Douglas Adams and Lord Dunsany, fun, and light-hearted yet with a sense of ageless myth about it.

I am looking forward to Strickland's forthcoming collection on Smashwords.
