Laynie Portland spirit-filled series

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on October 26, 2021 by David BergslandOctober 26, 2021

The Laynie Portland spirit-filled series seems like a type of book I do not read: historical fiction, character-driven, seems suspiciously like a romance. And I grew tired of spy thrillers a long time ago. Yet I loved it. In fact, … Continue reading →

Inventive Christian dystopian future book

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on December 1, 2017 by David BergslandDecember 1, 2017

The Fifteenth Article by Linda Wood Rondeau presents a book with an inventive Christian dystopian future. It has a clear development of an evil godless government with a strongly persecuted believer minority. The characters are intriguing, though I can’t use compelling. … Continue reading →

The Divine Space Pirates dystopian science fiction fantasy is well done

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on May 3, 2017 by David BergslandMay 3, 2017

I just read an excellent romance in The Divine Space Pirates dystopian science fiction fantasy by C.S. Johnson. It is dystopian, reads like an epic fantasy, while it’s clearly science fiction—with a nicely done romance. It’s not nearly as strong as … Continue reading →

Stealthy Redemptive Fiction works well for reality

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on March 21, 2017 by David BergslandMarch 21, 2017

OK! The title’s for SEO. But, Stealthy Redemptive Fiction works well for reality when it’s Vikki Kestell’s Nanostealth series. I’ve read Book 1, Stealthy Steps, or book 2, Stealth Power. Book 3 comes forth June 2. It’s hard to wait. The Nanostealth Series Book 1 started a … Continue reading →

Dystopian YA thriller: The Senator’s Youngest Daughter

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on December 29, 2016 by David BergslandDecember 29, 2016

This book reads like a dystopian YA thriller —though the characters seem to be bit older. It’s a familiar scenario. Here’s the prologue: Eight years ago, at the height of a media crisis centered on a controversial decision by the … Continue reading →

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on November 19, 2016 by David BergslandNovember 19, 2016

Book Three in the Hidden Thrones Series is the Spirit-filled thriller Face to Face. Russ Scalzo has continued his story in fine fashion as it builds into what will surely be an exciting conclusion. Book four is due in February, … Continue reading →

Redemptive: The Gifts series by Jen Gentry

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on July 20, 2016 by David BergslandJuly 20, 2016

This reviews the first three books in the Gifts series by Jen. It’s a surprising bit of writing, and I really enjoyed it. It’s certainly Redemptive: The Gifts brings new fun to Christian Urban Fantasy. [yasr_overall_rating size=”large”] The stories follow the life … Continue reading →

Spirit-Filled fiction award: The Proverbial War by Guy Stanton III

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on May 19, 2016 by David BergslandMay 19, 2016

Well, I had to reread the next one also: Book Two in the Water Wars Series. It’s also as good as I remember it. You need to realize what Guy has done with his spirit-filled stories. He puts despicable, damaged, … Continue reading →

Christian dystopian speculative fiction: Keepers of Men by Eric Martindale

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on May 18, 2016 by David BergslandMay 18, 2016

This was not a fun book to read for me. First, as old as I am, I would not survive. Second, the immediate future of “civilization” on the Earth in the USA will probably not be pretty. But then God … Continue reading →

Christian Political Thriller: Open Warfare, Book 2 in Hidden Thrones by Russ Scalzo

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on May 14, 2016 by David BergslandMay 15, 2016

I know. The second book is where the trouble reaches its peak. Everything falls apart and victory seems far away. For me, it’s hard reading a second book with no third book available. I’m beginning to see afresh my wife’s … Continue reading →
