A tranquil Day on the Strait of Canso
on April 29, 2012
The author takes what could be seen as a mundane and simple description of his trip and elevates it to one that is full of imagery and excitement. He keeps the language at a level where it appeals to both the experienced sailor and one who has never set foot on a boat before. Well done Robert!

The Red Man
on May 17, 2012
Excellent story. A very interesting premise and very well written. There was a lot of detail concerning the archaeological aspects but they never once overwhelmed the reader.

Aftermath: Found
on May 18, 2012
Very well written. It felt a little short but what was there was great. Looking forward to more works from the author!

Pack Rules (A Short Story)
on May 18, 2012
A very interesting spin with a neat twist at the end! This book was a lot of fun to read and flowed really well. The bullet images were a bit distracting though. Very well written and paced.

Quiet!

As a fan of the Race to the Moon, I found this story quite enjoyable. It was well written, paced really well and offered an interesting perspective to the moon landings.

A Dream of Death (Detective Lincoln Munroe, Book 1)
on June 11, 2012
A great read! Very detailed accounts of police work without confusing or boring the reader. The conclusion with The Strangler seemed a bit rushed but it fit the story regardless. I'm looking forward to future writings from this author!

In The Footsteps of Giants We Can Hear Echoes
on July 12, 2012
A very interesting read! Despite a few mistakes that could be fixed in one more proofread, the author does a good job creating a world which draws the reader in and keeps them there up until the end. I am looking forward to reading more of the author's work.

Aeroparts Factory
on July 22, 2012
This story was a thoroughly enjoyable read. My only complaint was that the story was a little short. I love big, clunky robots and I was easily able to picture the humans and automatons working in that setting. This author has easily become one of my favourites and I look forward to more of his work.

Number Withheld

A very good and quick read. The story was intriguing and had enough substance to satisfy the reader. For something that was a writing experiment it turned out quite good.

The Star Creature
on Dec. 07, 2012
I thoroughly enjoyed this story. The descriptions of the man were very intriguing as it was told from a different point of view. In fact, I wouldn't mind a longer piece to learn more about the narrator.
