#christianscifi fantasy book review: The Jammer & The Blade by DJ Edwardson

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on March 6, 2015 by David BergslandMarch 6, 2015

New author, for me anyway, who writes a fine tale: The Jammer and the Blade The question is who is he or she? I don’t have a clue beyond writerly cleverness—piff. To quote, “DJ Edwardson lives on the blank pages at … Continue reading →

Christian speculative fiction at its best: Ice Wind by Guy Stanton III

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on February 20, 2015 by David BergslandFebruary 20, 2015

I’m at a loss for words. My only quibble is that it’s yet another of those #%$&*( )@#$ novellas. I have literally run out of superlatives for Guy’s books. Another genre busting book This is Christian, action/adventure, science fiction, western, … Continue reading →

Review: Objects of Wrath by Sean T Smith: 3+ stars

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on June 6, 2014 by David BergslandFebruary 18, 2015

Review: The Last Place To Stand by Aaron K. Redshaw

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on May 5, 2014 by David BergslandFebruary 18, 2015

This is not a Christian novel [though it was given to me as one]. The author is a believer. He claims the series will end up with Christian parts–eventually. It’s clean and inoffensive now. Nothing more. “1984” modernized That taken … Continue reading →

Review: Surviving the Apocalypse At by Celesta Thiessen

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on February 6, 2014 by David BergslandFebruary 18, 2015

There be zombies! Was I surprised. A strange Christian thriller. This is a Christian book, so I assumed it was about the “real” apocalypse coming soon. In fact, the Coming King is not even hinted. However, it’s a good story…a … Continue reading →
