Review Quotes

“You’ll get no other book like this one. Unless we count the first. Imagination knows no bounds—or bowels—in this inventive, high-stakes sci-fi thriller.” –  Toni Woodruff , Independent Book Review

“…a gloriously offbeat fusion of satire and sci-fi, perfect for those who enjoy sharp humor and gleeful absurdity.” – Jackie Pick, WordMonkey Chronicles

“…an intriguing voyage of self-discovery that involves a thrilling cross country car chase and plenty of mysterious and unexpected occurrences.” – The BookLife Prize by Publishers Weekly

“…The author’s intended message is clearly one of female empowerment, solidarity, healing, and redemption.” – Joslyn Vann, US Review of Books

“…A zany romp…packed with satire, intrigue, and adventure. Will captivate newcomers as well as prior fans, but be prepared for a wild ride.” – D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review
