Welcome...
A sneak preview
This is the new book cover of Crank Tech One - DESTRUCTION, and I wanted all of my fans who have read my other series, to see it first. It will be online on Amazon, Waterstones and all good retailers sites in the next few days, for all to see. I just wanted my readers to get a sneak preview. This is my first venture into Sci-fi. I love it and I think you'll agree that it is a really magnetic cover. The artwork is by Derek Jones, it's a new venture for him too. He has done all the covers on my other books, but this is his first sci-fi project. He wanted a Marvel/DC style finish. What do you think? It's totally different to my other book jackets. Go to my contact page and let me know what you think. Enjoy. |

I really had to think about this review before writing it. There is so much right with Crank Tech One but there is also a lot that is wrong. But overall my experience reading the book was positive. The best thing to say about Crank Tech Run is that it was a fun read. The book is quirky, the story a bit different, it had some fun twists to the story and overall I read it with a smile on my face. I’ve read a lot of “robot” stories and seen a number of “robot” movies and this story was fairly original and not a rehash of plots I had seen before.
However, the writing is very uneven. There are points where I was impressed with a well written section, and then cringing at the writing in another section. Many times the story progressed forward brilliantly – but at other points it relied on hokey contrivances. If the entire book were written up to the standards of its best segments, it would be a five star sci-fi classic. The poor parts had the effect of pulling me out of the story, which is never good.
I am going with four stars because the plot was original, and there were several shining moments in the book.L Sweet 4 stars October 12 2015
