REVIEWS

Here are excerpts from four “Team Trial Run” reviews. Please click the publication titles to view each person’s full review:

Tracie Heskett, on Goodreads:

Trial Run provides a different kind of escape for those who read for pleasure. It takes readers into the world of what if? in a new way and leaves the door open for human potential and creativity to take the next step.”

Phillip Cole, on his blog:

“The concept of having an out-of-body experience is familiar to most people, but what if it could be done at will? What would this enable people to do? Two separate teams, one a pioneer in the field, the other using technology stolen from the first team, are pursuing two different outcomes to these experiences. One is looking the knowledge to be gained, the second is looking for a new weapon.”

Sue Stevens, on ChristianBook.com

“Everything is so cinematographic…. you can see it all unfolding in your brain as race along with the characters, on both sides of the story. The ‘villains’ are just barely separated from the ‘good guys.’”

Judith Barnes, on Amazon:

“Is it science fiction, thriller, or mystery? Trial Run is all three, seasoned with a hint of romance.”
