Required Reading

Life is complicated enough without getting into hotwater with federal agencies so: TAKE NOTE Many things I review I received at no charge in exchange for an honest review. Consider this as informing you that ALL things I review may have been gotten at no charge. Realistically about 40% but in order to keep things above board just assume that I got the stuff free. I do not collect information on my readers. If cookies or other tracking stuff is used on my blogs it is due to BLOGGER not ME. Apparently the European Union's new rules state I need to inform you if cookies are being use. If they are it isn't byu me, consider yourself INFORMED.
Words like, “sponsored,” “promotion,” “paid ad” or even just “ad” are clear ways to disclose that you’re being paid to share information and links so BE AWARE that some of what I write can be described as an AD by the government. BTW I will NEVER say a product is great, super or even acceptable if it isn't, whether I got it free or NOT!

Warp Speed by Travis S. Taylor



Persevere through the technical jargon and you’ll find a good story and hopeful plot. A black belted scientist and mentees invent a warp drive.  That drive becomes the focus of an international plot and mayhem and death follow.

Taylor’s technical expertise seems to get away from him in some of the passages.  I’m not sure if it is accidental or intentional.   If your eyes glaze, push through, he writes a good story.  Anson, the main protagonist, demonstrates a real reaction to being assaulted.  Whether said assault is on his person, his friends, or his nation, he takes it personally and reacts accordingly.

His references to books that were on both our TBR piles were entertaining.  I liked Anson’s willingness to think big.   I also liked the strong female characters.  

I recommend the book.

I just read some of the reviews on Amazon and was surprised.  Reading fiction you need to be able to suspend disbelief.   It’s fiction, the author isn’t perfect but it’s fiction.  If I want reality I’ll read non-fiction.  This wasn’t a great book but it was an enjoyable read.  


This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases if you click on a purchasing link below.#CommissionsEarned
