Readers Comments:
Wizards' Kingdom I loved your book, it was super - appealing to 9 - 12 year age bracket in particular, but... to anyone who enjoys this genre. The storyline was strong and original with tiny aspects of: 'The Hobbit'/'Lord of the Rings' - Gollum/Loof; - 'Kites & Seekers', 'Sleeping Beauty - spell cast on population. Character and setting description are vivid, providing clear visuals for the reader. Pace is fast and relentless right up to the final page - 'Two hour rollercoaster adventure', filled with surprises, action, friendship, magic, edge of your seat excitement with a hint of fear and sadness thrown in.
Having read Crank Tech One, Destruction written by the same author ( which is a great read) I always wondered where Crank came from, what's he been up to before he became crank. This is a short prequal which starts to fill in those blanks. As the old saying goes "you can't judge a book by its cover " which must admit I really like the cover of this book. I went through this in about 40 minutes, but what a great 40 minutes it was. It's very well written almost impossible to put down, and it gave me a glimpse in to the other, shall we say talents this Robot has.
Knew this was a short story, and was willing it go beyond where it ended. Colin R Parsons has a talent for leaving you wanting more. And I want to know more about IU-137. Great read for all ages male or female,Well done Mr Parsons. Well done indeed.A Brooks (a fan)
