My Wife Recommends this Re-Imagined Classic

My wife just finished this book and loved it.  That’s pretty much our highest recommendation.  For fans of updated classic tales, like Marion Zimmer Bradley’s "Mists of Avalon.”


NOTE: This is the “Enhanced Version” with extra audio/video goodies for Kindle.  

NOTE #2: 125 5-Star customer reviews and the good word of my wife. What are you waiting for?   

From Amazon’s page…

Enter the world of Homer's ancient Greece with the enhanced e-book edition of The Song of Achilles. This edition lets you further engage with this compelling story through video interviews with Madeline Miller and Gregory Maguire, bestselling author of the Wicked series, clips from the audio book at the start of each chapter, an illustrated map, and a pop-up gallery featuring over 40 images and descriptions of the characters, armor, and ships found in the book.
The legend begins...
Greece in the age of heroes. Patroclus, an awkward young prince, has been exiled to the kingdom of Phthia to be raised in the shadow of King Peleus and his golden son, Achilles. "The best of all the Greeks"—strong, beautiful, and the child of a goddess—Achilles is everything the shamed Patroclus is not. Yet despite their differences, the boys become steadfast companions. Their bond deepens as they grow into young men and become skilled in the arts of war and medicine—much to the displeasure and the fury of Achilles' mother, Thetis, a cruel sea goddess with a hatred of mortals.
When word comes that Helen of Sparta has been kidnapped, the men of Greece, bound by blood and oath, must lay siege to Troy in her name. Seduced by the promise of a glorious destiny, Achilles joins their cause, and torn between love and fear for his friend, Patroclus follows. Little do they know that the Fates will test them both as never before and demand a terrible sacrifice.
Built on the groundwork of the Iliad, Madeline Miller's page-turning, profoundly moving, and blisteringly paced retelling of the epic Trojan War marks the launch of a dazzling career.

CITY UNDER THE MOON - 5 Stars from THRILLERS ROCK TWITTER




E. Bard of the Thrillers Rock Twitter team says City Under the Moon by Hugh Sterbakov may be right up your alley.  Gives it 5 stars but with strings attached. 

"I really never imagined I'd be writing this in a review: It's the werewolf apocalypse! This story is a very unique thriller that returns the werewolf firmly to the role of monster. For me, this was a welcome change from the recent trend in popular fiction where the werewolf is cast as more of a tortured romantic hero...”

**About our Network of Reviewers** 



Books need readers like stuffed animals need kids to love them.  The absolute best way to help match a book to a reader who will love it is Word-of-Mouth from other readers who love it already.



NFE is brand new, but we’re growing fast.   Our mission is simple, just what it says up there at the top of the blog.  


And we’re every bit as serious about the “Great” part of what we promote as the “Under Six Bucks” part.  

Finding that price is easy.  Finding “Great” is not.  We need help for that.

Bottom line:  No one love books more, no one knows more about being exhausted all day Tuesday because they were reading all night Monday, than book bloggers.  We want to know what they think because nobody knows books better.  

To learn more about the NFE Network and how your blog can join and why it’s a good idea, click the Reviewers, Book Lovers and Bloggers TAB at the top of the page.

Alchemy by Mike Wood



The summer of 1984 was a golden time in America. From California, where gymnast Mary Lou Retton was winning Olympic gold, to Cape Cod, where explorer Barry Clifford was discovering pirate gold, the nation seemed obsessed with the precious metal. But for 15-year old Al, that obsession hits a little too close to home when he finds a code-filled notebook belonging to his missing father that may contain the ancient formula for turning lead to gold. Convinced that his father’s sudden disappearance is connected to his secret experiments in alchemy, Al sets out to find the truth. He enlists the help of Cammie, a beautiful girl staying for the summer while her marine biologist father tracks a wayward manatee, and together they begin unraveling the mystery. But the closer they get to an answer, the closer they grow to each other, and as the end of summer draws nearer, Al wonders if they can break the code without breaking his heart.

Here’s some of what’s inside (warning: one naughty word ahead, but we thought this was pretty funny) - NFE

“...would you rather eat a piece of shit or a piece of chocolate? It’s that simple. You don’t need to worry about what’s going to happen in the end…eventually they both come out the same, if you know what I mean. All you need to figure out is which will leave a better taste in your mouth.” 

NFE notes: Alchemy has 66 customer reviews with an Avg. of 4.6 Stars out 5
