Escape

Pure kick ass escapism!!!
***
Michel - Thank you AvidReader! Yes, that is EXACTLY what it is. With, like, killing terrorists involved as well. Because, as I mentioned to my dad, I can.
So I did.
A lot.
Kill those terrorists, I mean.

An engaging ethical vampire sets out to save the world!
ByGary F. Yorkon March 1, 2016
Format: Kindle Edition
I decided to try this book when a reviewer, 'David...,' mentioned it was similar to Laurence Dahners Ell Donsaii series. Indeed! There are differences, of course, and plenty of them. For one, Ell Donsaii is rather less temperamental. For another, Dahners sets up Ell Donsaii to be believably 'super' in a prelude that's repeated in each book. Michael Anderle takes much of this first book to make Bethany Anne's 'powers' believable and he certainly managed to hold my interest while doing so.
If you enjoyed the Ell Donsaii series (and are not put off by the lead character being a highly ethical vampire) I urge you to give this series a look.
***
Michael - Thank you Gary F. York! I’m an ‘Ell’ fan, so no big surprise on some of it there. I completely skip that beginning part on Dahners books (good reads if you haven’t read his stuff yet - and his ‘Vaz’ series).
However, some do get a bit perturbed about all of this end matter. Last time on the reviews, I promise!
Except, of course, if enough people want me to write something to put out as a book so we can F#ck w/ the establishment, because I’m ALWAYS up for doing something like that.
Watch me get my a$$ canned or something.
LOL, wow, what a way to end a brand new career ;-)

Enjoyed reading this book and will read the rest in this series. It's a little hard to follow sometimes,but well worth the effort.

Right now, sir!
Now?
Now!

It's a fun read. Buy it!
ByDerek D. Mullicanon March 3, 2016

I bought this book on a whim because the premise seemed interesting. A new take on a vampire novel looked like a good idea to me at the time. I ended up reading the first 6 books in 3 days. These are great escapist books, but a warning: they are very rough draft. I'm generally a grammar Nazi, but they were so fun to read that I just didn't care. Extra apostrophes and commas are so abundant they become a little distracting. The heroine is pretty awesome (despite the juvenile "cussing") and the action is intense. It feels almost like a teen's hero fantasies come to life, and I sort of like that, for some reason. If you are able to look past the poor proofreading, the story is so fun to follow that you can't stop. The main reason I am so forgiving of the author's grammar is that he is publishing each book in less than a month. I am willing to forgive a lot when I don't have to wait a year to see what happens next.

Michael - Awwww, f#ck my life, a grammar Nazi! (HAHAHAHAHAHA…) How the hell did I get a 5 star from a Grammar Nazi? Oh, he tells me right there in the review.
Fun escapism for the win!
And writing fast like a sum-b#tch!
Thank you Derek D. Mullican. You give me hope that I’ll get it all handled and like I mention … above? Yeah, above, please drop me a note and let me know what you think about #07 here!

Wow!

I stumbled onto the Kutherian Gambit by happy accident. This is what Scifi and Fantasy should be! It pulls you in and leaves you wanting for more.
***
Michael - Thank You Faith Peterson! (That’s like two different Faith reviews this book, right?) I’m blessed to have your review and as a fan. I definitely LOVE when you want more of the characters.
I’ve done my job, which since it is so freaking COOL, isn’t really a job either, is it?
More philosophy and I’m just told I have people suffering withdrawals on the forum (reading you Scot) so I’ve got to jump to the next review.

Death Becomes Her is very well written and wonderfully entertaining. The humor and sarcastic wit between the characters makes them feel like friends. I cant think of higher praise than that.
***
Michael - Thank you Lars Pedersen! “Makes them feel like friends”.
Really cool vibes on that phrase, that’s how I want them to feel because that is what makes me want to read books a second and a third time.
I can’t think of higher praise than that at times, either!

Read it. You'll like it!

Really enjoyed this series! I taught school for 30 yrs., so I am not interested in correcting grammar, spelling, sentence structure, etc. I read for the story and this series supplies all anyone could want. Wonderful characters, well developed.
***
Michael - Hello Margaret! You were SO much fun over the weekend with the Scavenger hunt! Loved the interaction and the effort. When I read your review the first time, I was taken by surprise with the school teacher comment and it was another time to just sit back and be still to feel the enjoyment you threw my way.
Thank you!

Not a teenage romance, a vampire book that sets the stage for an epic scifi future.
ByJ. Parkeson March 6, 2016
Format: Kindle Edition
Typically i run far and fast from anything vampire related....i'm a SciFi fan though i started with fantasy as a teenager long long ago....in a science fiction forum i belong to this series was recommended and i began book 1, it confused me as to why until halfway through book 1 and then i understood.
Let me say that i have thoroughly enjoyed this fun and creative series and am preparing to read book 4 today. In this instance the vampire story isn't at all sparkly skinned handsome teenage heart throb or angst riddled love stories, it's a fun romp with plenty of fights and will keep you absorbed in reading until the wee hours of the morning.
***
Michael - Thank you J. Parkes! Which science fiction forum was that? Get ahold of me and I’ll drop a 10 ‘free’ giveaway for you to do if you want? I’ll turn that group into a (certain) vampire loving group ;-)
All fun aside (not the 10 free - that’s real!) Thank you for your review and I look forward to keeping you up tonight! (READING!)
Yeah, that last sentence needed to go. ;-)
HAHAHAHAHAHA… yeah, not sharing with anyone THAT edit!

Five stars
ByKresshon March 6, 2016

I love this series. Just started the 4th book and I am really connecting with some of the characters. I often find myself smiling and laughing out loud at how Bethany Ann deals with the situations that arise. I have always been a horror junky with a particular love for vampires. Michael has written a truly interesting protagonist in Bethany Ann, a military woman from 2016 turned Vampire thrown into a world of ageless monsters from a time when women (never mind vampires) didn't have the freedom to truly be themselves. Now the most powerful being on the planet, Bethany Ann can truly do whatever the F*** she likes. I can't wait to see how the story progresses.
***
Michael - Thank you Kress! I love how you are thinking it through. I do believe the story is ‘deeper’ at times than the light hearted ‘kill them all and let God sort them out’ it (mostly) is. But, that’s because I feel the deeper stuff isn’t on purpose and we have to dig deeper with intent.
Of course, I could just be BS’ing myself thinking I have deeper thoughts and should just get over myself.
We shall see ;-)

Awesome series, bought the first one on impulse
ByBob H.on March 7, 2016

Awesome series, bought the first one on impulse, and have since bought the next 5 books and I am waiting on the next one, My recommendation is buy the first one when you have time to sit down and read, preferably at the start of the weekend when you have time to get the rest of the series and enjoy a relaxing reading weekend. I know I did.
***
Michael - Well, Mr. Bob H. you are our last review (and a huge thank you)! It has taken me about 2 1/2 hours to write all of these and I’ve really enjoyed it.
So, now that you, Bob, are partially responsible for not getting book 07 out just a couple of minutes faster, how do you feel?
I’m personally very glad you did a review! That’s one more review and with it I’m that much closer to 100 REVIEWS BITCHES!
Those establishment people who say someone shouldn’t put out 4 books a year can kiss my 7 book, 1/2 million words, 80+ reviews in 5 months’ ass!!!
AD AETERNITEM!!!!
TILL I SEE YOU AGAIN IN
WE WILL BUILD
THE KURTHERIAN GAMBIT 08
Oh yeah, and the Frank Kurns novel, because we are SO going to rock the charts with his books ;-)

KICK ASS EVERYONE,
2016 IS OUR YEAR!
