This is a blog reviewing the latest book I have read along with the books I have self-published. Please feel free to follow along with my reading / writing journey.

An interesting novel talking about sacred covenants and how they tie us to the Lord through the temple. A lot of the history through the Bible and other scripture on people making and keeping covenants. Overall an interesting read that I enjoyed.

Book 3 of the Morcster Chef series. This concluding novel in the series. We conclude the arc leaving plenty of story left untold and yet it is complete if he never comes back to do any more. Little more seafood in this one. The story was well done my favorite being Ming the voracious eater.…

Book 2 of the Morcster Chef series. This is a great second book with lots of cooking, fights, and building to book 3. I love the city of the masters and the ramifications of have a city of masters. I like the choosing the lesser of two evils. All said that was a very clean…

Book 1 of the Morcster Chef series. Part cookbook and part adventure this fun novel is reminiscent of the Disney film Ratatouille. So much to unpack in this dungeon crawling cooking inspired piece of work. Including recipes. This book is funny and could help inspire someone to start cooking. This is a trilogy and if…

This book is heavily based in Lean manufacturing principles but has a lot of real world examples and experiences. I enjoyed the insights into Tesla, as it was the prime example in the book. The other thing I loved was “eat your own dog food”. This concept isn’t original, I remember reading in a book…

Book 2 of the Gleam series. I am grateful that he at least finished the arc. Whether or not there is ever a book 3 this series was well worth the read and kept me engaged right through the end. There is a lot of battles, of saving people, unlikely allies and super overpowered enemies.…

Book 1 of the Gleam series. This is a great opener book. Sad to think that this is only a two book series. The cultivation system is great and progression is spot on. The battles are intense as hand-to-hand is merged with essence. This series has multiple book potential and I would love to see…

Book 8 of the Dungeon Crawler Carl series. The brutal bloody game continues with a jacked up theme of Hunger Games and Mario Cart. This book deals with floors 10 and 11. if you’ve enjoyed the book series thus far you’ll enjoy more of the same. I am only tangentially aligned with the target audience…

Book 5 of the Tales of an Aspiring Alchemist series. Our duo is back with their team of misfits. This book serves as a builder for the series, creating a villain for the story as well as giving us more backstory on the team. Also, we are now setting off past the student phase to…

This book is terrific, albeit the examples are terribly dated and would be hard to follow for readers under 40. That said I loved the first to market tied to creation of a different category and you can see many examples of how these play out. Others seemed to tie to these two basic ideas…
