Reviews of Uprising

Great read. I have lost sleep, extended work breaks, but I just couldn't stop reading till I got to the end. Great characters, totally compelling plot, well written. What more could anyone say. Great sci-fi.

Fantastic book. Kept me on the edge of my seat the three nights it took me to read; I tried to savour this book, but it was just too good to put down!

I loved this book. Very well written. I can't wait to read the sequel and other books by this author. Well done!

I loved this book. I was in the middle of reading two others when I opened it up on my Kindle to rid my mind of the lack of true plot I had been stumbling through, and was drawn in from the beginning. The dystopic nature of the book reminds me of "Brave New World" and has the story line moving from not only the higher level Citizens point of you but also the rabble of the forgotten. The story moves at a quick pace so you don't get bogged down too much in introspective nonsense that would throw off the true action of the book. I would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys a futuristic dystopia novel.

Haven This book to was a real page turner - although it was very bloody and graphic the author has a great imagination and I am glad to be able to take that journey with him and the rest of the crew from Old Haven.

Fabulous! I was pleasantly surprised with how long this book is - so many of the free ebooks can be read within an hour. I really like the alternate universe Kemppainen has created, and can't wait to read more about it. I agree that the ending wasn't what I wanted necessarily, but I had already read on his website that he is planning on writing another book, so I assumed that things wouldn't be all wrapped up in the end.

The way the numerous storylines are woven together is excellent, and the character development is masterful. I didn't figure out the ending halfway into the story, which was really nice. It was hard to tell what side some of the characters were on, even until the end, and it had me guessing about what would happen throughout the story.

Best value! A free science fiction adventure with depth. Excellent writing with great characters that are intertwined beautifully. You will enjoy this book and hope the author will write a sequel.

I'm not a big sci fi reader but this sounded interesting. Glad I took the chance, the book was excellent and really held my interest. Loved the Malcolm character and never expected the end to play out like it did. I look forward to more from this author!

Outstanding! Only at the beginning of the story and already wishing for more books by Justin Kemppainen! Very hard to put down and hoping there are more stories coming.

I downloaded Haven because it was free, and I was low on money for Kindle books. Having read it, I wish I could have bought it. It's well worth standard retail for a book. The story moves at a perfect pace, the characters are believable and wonderful, and the plot...man, it's good. I'm craving more! The world Justin Kemppainen has created begs for more stories set there, even if they aren't directly related to this one. I would love pre- and post- Haven books.
