 In One Fell Swoop

by Willow Rose

Genre:  Horror / Thriller

My Review

I was curious about this after taking a close look at the cover. Having read many of Willow’s books, I spotted those vines and my imagination took flight. The author sets the tone right from the beginning. Camping in the Green Swamps of Florida. Creepy woods. Campers disappear. Oh yeah, this was gonna be fun.

They say you don’t fool with Mother Nature and they’re right. She bites back. But so does Patty. Her grandson is one of the missing campers and she enters the woods, bound and determined to find him.

So much happens in this book. I want to tell you about this scene. And that scene. And how wildly imaginative the author got with the ways Mother Nature took her revenge. Crazy stuff. And great for a movie.

Beware. The woods are dark and deep. Scary things creep.

Synopsis

Fasten your sea tbelts as Willow Rose takes you on one scary, wildly imaginative ride. For anyone who loves a good thriller, this is a treat.

On a hot day in June, two groups of campers disappear in the Green Swamps of Florida. The wood is still burning in the bonfire, all their belongings are abandoned, and there is blood at the campground. But not a single body is found.

Patty McGee, the grandmother to one of the missing campers, sets out to find out what happened to her grandson, thinking his father might have kidnapped him. However, soon she realizes she is up against a force way more powerful than that. It’s a battle even she can’t win.

From the Queen of Scream comes a scary, yet humorous tale of man’s battle against nature. In One Fell Swoop is a compelling and clever story, as only Willow Rose can deliver.

 Fossil River

by Jock Miller

Genre:  Horror / Thriller

My Review

The United States is on the brink of disaster. They are running out of oil and it’s only a matter of time before the country goes dark. When a huge deposit of oil is discovered in a remote Alaskan National Reserve, the choice is simple. Plunder the park, but try to leave the smallest footprint possible. Only problem is, something has already made a claim on the land. Something ancient and deadly.

I wasn’t going to tell you what the ancient creatures were, but the blurb gives it away. It’s dinosaurs. Smart ones. They can perform coordinated attacks. Are almost impossible to defend against. And they don’t like us in their territory. That’s my kind of story and I ate this up. And how fun that the very thing we get oil from is the very thing that bars our access.

There are plenty of characters. Those that become dinosaur chum. Those that fight for protecting the dinosaurs. And Those that want to go in and bomb them back into extinction. And those caught in the middle. I really became attached to some. And that made for thrilling reading.

Lots of books give you bits and pieces about the creatures they feature. In Fossil River you get lots of up close and personal encounters. There are plenty of tense scenes. Especially when they start to encounter the dinosaurs. A military team goes in and things get nuts. I accepted that some of the characters I liked would meet their end. And so would some of the dinosaurs. It saddened me. But the suspense was greater because of those very things.

I liked this one a lot. Read it twice. And will probably read it again when I’m in the mood for some dinosaur mayhem.

Synopsis

Fossil fuel has an ageless affinity with dinosaurs. To create oil, dinosaurs died. Now the tables are turning!

The perfect energy storm is sweeping over the United States: Japan’s Fukushima nuclear plant meltdown has paralyzed nuclear expansion globally, BP’s Gulf of Mexico oil spill has stalled deep water drilling, Arab oil countries are in turmoil causing doubt about access to future oil, the intensity of hurricanes hitting the Gulf’s oil rigs and refineries has intensified due to global warming, and the nation’s Strategic Oil Supply is riding on empty.

As the energy storm intensifies, the nation’s access to Arab oil, once supplying over sixty percent of our fossil fuel, is being threatened causing people to panic for lack of gas at the pumps, stranding cars across the country and inciting riots.

The U.S. Military is forced to cut back air, land, and sea operations sucking up 58% of every barrel of oil to protect the nation; U.S. commercial airlines are forced to limit flights for lack of jet fuel; and businesses are challenged to power up their factories, and offices as the U.S. Department of Energy desperately tries to provide a balance of electric power from the network of aged power plants and transmission lines that power up the nation.

The United States must find new sources of domestic fossil fuel urgently or face an energy crisis that will plunge the nation into a deep depression worse than 1929.

The energy storm is very real and happening this very moment. But, at the last moment of desperation, the United States discovers the world’s largest fossil fuel deposit found in a remote inaccessible mountain range within Alaska’s Noatak National Preserve surrounding six and a half million acres.

Preventing access to the oil is a colony of living fossil dinosaurs that will protect its territory to the death.

Nobody gets out alive; nobody can identify the predator–until Dr. Kimberly Fulton, Curator of Paleontology at New York’s Museum of Natural History, is flown into the inaccessible area by Scott Chandler, the Marine veteran helicopter pilot who’s the Park’s Manager of Wildlife. All hell breaks loose when Fulton’s teenage son and his girlfriend vanish into the Park.

Will the nation’s military be paralyzed for lack of mobility fuel, and will people across America run out of gas and be stranded, or will the U.S. Military succeed in penetrating this remote mountain range in northwestern Alaska to restore fossil fuel supplies in time to save the nation from the worst energy driven catastrophe in recorded history?
