BREAKING ANCHOR by Henry Melton

Oh my home school book loving friends I have run across a new to me author who is MARVELOUS!

Breaking Anchor is the first of his books I read. I found in this book a … Continue reading

Fun Read! It Was Only On Stun!

IT WAS ONLY ON STUN has now been published. This link gives you the source for a print copy but you can get a KINDLE copy from Amazon.com. I enjoyed this rollicking good tale. It spoofs dozens of science fiction, fantasy and other literary sources and does so with delightful good humor. I liked it.  Is it Tolkien, Heinlein or Austen– noooo, but it isn’t trying to be either. It is written more in the spirit of Robert Asprin. While reading, I was constantly on the alert for the various references to other scifi cultures and that was plain fun.  … Continue reading
