Christian fantasy: The Healer’s Rune by Lauricia Matuska

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on April 2, 2016 by David BergslandApril 2, 2016

What a fun ride this was. A world in which to escape with enough truth to keep it real. That’s what I look for in Christian fiction. This book qualifies. [yasr_overall_rating size=”large”] Christian fantasy entertainment This is not redemptive, yet … Continue reading →

Christian Epic Fantasy: King’s Folly by Jill Williamson

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on March 24, 2016 by David BergslandMarch 24, 2016

I was hesitant to use the word Christian in the title, because this is definitely not a Christian book. I know Jill is a Christian author, and she has virtually promised that the series will arrive at this spiritual destination … Continue reading →

Christian fantasy: The Summoned King: Book One of The Kalymbrian Chronicles by Dave Neuendorf

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on March 11, 2016 by David BergslandMarch 11, 2016

This book was a joy to read. It is fantasy on a level rarely seen, as an inspiring teen deals with a kingship and arranged marriage out of the blue. [yasr_overall_rating size=”large”] This is type of fantasy I really like … Continue reading →

Christian Fantasy Review: Emissary and Merchant of Alyss by Thomas Locke

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on February 2, 2016 by David BergslandFebruary 2, 2016

Christian only in that Davis Bunn is a Christian author, these books are supposedly a clean read fantasy. I can see why he chose a pseudonym. [yasr_overall_rating size=”large”] Technically I guess this is true. Bunn is a superior writer, entertaining, … Continue reading →

Christian fantasy: Darkness Reigns by Jill Williamson

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on December 13, 2015 by David BergslandDecember 13, 2015

I enjoyed this book quite a bit. It reads like a heathen entertainment story. The characters are well-drawn and interesting. At the end, a good character seems to appear but the story ends before we find out. [yasr_overall_rating size=”large”] As … Continue reading →

Christian YA Urban Fantasy: Bloodline, The Chronicle of the Three, Book 1, by Tabitha Caplinger

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on November 23, 2015 by David BergslandNovember 23, 2015

Enjoyable read, entertaining, but perplexing I’ve really been wondering how to review this book. I had high hopes. It’s written by an Assembly of God youth pastor. It’s about spiritual warfare. So, it should be great, right? [yasr_overall_rating size=”large”] The … Continue reading →

Tradepub Review: The Mark of Blood and Alchemy by Evangeline Denmark from Blink

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on October 26, 2015 by David BergslandOctober 26, 2015

OK, I know that Blink is a pretend Christian subsidiary of HarperCollins producing mainstream books for a mainstream audience. But I thought I’d check out this prequel to the first book of the YA fantasy trilogy,  Curio, to be released … Continue reading →

Mid-school fantasy prequel review: Flashes of Ember by Vicki V. Lucas

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on October 17, 2015 by David BergslandOctober 17, 2015

It looks like this might be a prequel series. That would be good. Mid-school tales are almost always a bit thin, and I understand why. But, this would make a nice entrance to a YA fantasy series. I hope Vicki … Continue reading →

The Battle Begins: The Story of Creation (The Action Bible Graphic Novels Book 1) Kindle Edition

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on October 3, 2015 by David BergslandOctober 3, 2015

I got the Kindle version to check it out. The fixed layout comic book format worked fairly well on the iPad. But even here, a lot of the type was pretty small. It was also only in landscape layout which … Continue reading →

Christian fantasy tradepub review: The Shock of Night by Patrick W. Carr

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on September 30, 2015 by David BergslandSeptember 30, 2015

I’m almost sorry I have to review this as Christian fiction. I mean Bethany says it is. He’s represented by Steve Laube. Of course it’s Christian. Right? The book is entertaining, brilliant, creative, and very well written. It’s a professional … Continue reading →
