Excellent book for children aged 7-12

Review from a 10 YEAR OLD avid reader of graphic novels:
I like this book because it was really good and interesting and i think it was an amazing book to read. There was lots of action and fighting and time travel. I didn't pick 5 stars because there were some parts in the book were i couldn't understand parts and some parts were weird which could be kinda interesting. So i really really LIKE the book. You should read it one day and find out how amazing this book really is. CLEOPATRA in space is one of my favorite books in the world. I want to be helpful to whoever is thinking about buying this book. And here is one option YES.If you read this book already please be sure to share your thoughts and ideas with other people so you can share how wonderful of a book this is. So take your time and think right now if you are interested in getting this book. Hope you  like it or even love it. Bye.

Celine and Gaston were thrown together in a time of war and upheaval. I love a good time travel story and the author did a great job with their story.  It was full of danger and mystery and all things needed to keep the reader engaged from the beginning.  It was well written and the characters were well developed.  Great story. Highly recommend

Fantasy and magical elements make "History of the Timelaws" an interesting read.

This story is filled with wizards, magic, and time travel. Elizabeth, a teenage girl turned magic society leader, must lead her group called "Dark" through a spellbinding event to save the universe from being changed forever if the timelaws are not restored. Follow her journey back and forth through time as she is joined by her family and friends to complete this spell that will magically set things right.

I have to admit this story was not my usual genre of choice, but it moved pretty quickly which kept me interested and turning the pages. Time travel is interesting to me also, and that is the heavy theme throughout the book, so that made it enjoyable.

I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys YA fantasy fiction.

This book was kindly provided to me by it's wonderful author for my honest review.

This story held my attention. I loved hearing the descriptions of the old times, the battles in so many areas, some won, some lost,  it was really interesting. Did a great job with that. A story of man against nature,man against man, the growth of a nation, people, and the battles there of all wrapped into a interesting tale. One day would make a great movie, I hope that happens. Book received for a honest review.

Story goes in multiple directions and the writing really liked to emphasize points multiple times. However, the pacing and action was fantastic.

I liked the historical information and settings, plus the character changes.  Perhaps the breakneck pace could have been slowed by 24 to 48 hours

This book, set with feudal characters, reminded me in many ways of an Akura Kirosawa film. It starts out jumping between each group of characters, as well as showing you what Brit is up to.

Once Brit's plan is set in motion however, the action never stops until the last page. The description of the characters were very vivid, and the writing of the action scenes was very well written, and kept me going page after page.

I really grew to like these characters. I think my favorite was Akemi, the Ninja. There was plenty of cliffhanging moments, where you were left wondering if the characters were alive or dead. The ending left enough loose ends that the story could be continued.

On an age level, I'd probably say late teens or adults for this. While there wasn't much strong language, there was a lot of combat situations, etc. and creatures that might leave young readers frightened. If you get the opportunity, grab this book. It's available for both the nook and Kindle. I think you'd enjoy the story, especially if you're a fan of stories like the Lord of the Rings.

This book was heavy in historical content.  Which I found interesting and enjoyable.  It was more of day to day life for whites and indians.  A couple of historical battles.  Some political issues.  Liberal and tolerant attitudes on both sides for the time period.  The romance, story line and character development for the protagonists and secondary characters was ok.  I love time travel books especially when they are well researched.  So I will definitely read more from this author.

The story of the big uprising that happened before the story of Wool took place. Like travelling back in time. I like the fact that we are seeing Silo 1 in action as well.

A Refuge Assured by Jocelyn Green is full of historical events like the Whiskey Rebellion. I felt as though I have traveled back in time. The characters really portrayed their time periods. The accents and actions made the historical moments come alive. I was impressed. The plot was steady but good. Danger, risks, and hope are filled on these pages. A single woman traveling with a boy under her care looking for a safe place. A man wanting to run his farm but might be forced to fight for it again. These were strong independent characters. I could easily relate to their troubles and connect with them on many levels. Overall, it was a great read. I recommend it to others.

I received this copy from the publisher. This is my voluntary review.

Leo Blake was called back to Naval duty. He learned the earth was building its first star ship. The Kher returned to recruit more people to fight the Imperials as well as regain the first crew that had fought in the war before..

The Kher was shocked when the Imperials returned and attacked them. This was a surprise since they usually waited 1000 years between battles. Thus, they had to gather those who served before and acquire more humans to join the fight for survival.

A further problem was the presence of an extremely large ship called the Hunter. It had AI directing it. The Imperials seemed to have control of it.

There are many battles,big and small, rank contests, and my h more to learn. Enjoyable reading can be yours!

The author did an amazing job weaving together multiple forms of genre-historical romance, adventure, mystery, science fiction, etc. The visual detail in all series made feel as if, I, too, was a time traveler. I enjoyed the references to actual historical events. The characters were intriguing, complex, and certainly not predictable. I found it most difficult to put the books down. I just wanted to read, read, and continue reading.

There are several story lines taking place so you have to pay attention to keep up.  The story only last the stretch of the games, but there is so much packed in, it seems like so much more time has passed.  We are starting to see some of Sera's full potential in this book and some relationship development between her and Kai.  The games are intense but the fight scenes aren't drawn out.  I thought I wouldn't, but I really ended up interested in what transpired in the pit.

The characters are a lot of fun. There are incredible battles and fights, using swords and magic abilities that are pretty inventive. The territories are interesting and leave you wanting to know more about them. All in all this is a great fun book to read.

A unique world, combined with some compelling action scenes make this a good, if long, read!
