Genre: Dystopian Noir 5 Stars Dark and thrilling (and chilling) What a chilling Noir in The Sun Casts No Shadow by Mark Richardson. I am a definite fan of this author! Whatever this author writes, I want read. This author brings the story to life. I read Richardson's book Hunt for the Troll and enjoyed it, but this one, is just, wow. It's twisted and dark, and the scent of Noir fits this plotline, and layers of story that are developed. Thorneycroft is definitely an unforgett

4 Stars Grand read Richardson pens an interesting, character-driven story in Hunt for the Troll. I haven't read work from this author before, and I enjoyed this story. This author brings the story to life. The characters had a lot of depth and were very mysterious and assorted. I know assorted characters sounds strange, but the characters, each had their own uniqueness that brought a lot to the story. I read a lot of stories, and I love the different writing styles and storyt

5 Stars Remarkable Read! Richardson pens a remarkable story in Hell Fighters. I have read work from this author before, and I really enjoyed it. The characters were fun and thrown into a place that was not likely for them. It was a great story, and I loved reading it. I must say that when I first read the line "giant turtles," I laughed out loud, and then continued on, knowing that I'd be loving this story. Dud and Heller are on quite the journey, that they seem to be looking

4 Stars Grand mix of genre and plot lines Richardson pens a great story in The Field, which is written for the YA reader, but I enjoyed it as well.

4 Stars Remarkable remake Richardson pens a wonderfully humorous story in The Frankenstein Adventures. The age old Frankenstein monster story is brought back, but this time, for young children (or young at heart as well). I enjoyed this story, and I like how it was written from Igor's point of view. It is not a revamped Frankenstein story, but there are pieces that are pulled from the original story, and brought into a twisty and interesting story, while bringing the reader o

4 Stars Engaging! Richardson's Earth Quarantined is a great sci-fi book that brings a lot of dystopian features into the story. It takes place well into the future, but there is a great "end-of-the-world" back story. The characters were definitely created with depth and chemistry. It's a good story that definitely engages the reader, and helps this reader take a dangerous journey into space. I look forward to reading more by this author. #4Stars #Richardson
