"Moon 514: Blaze and the White Griffon" is the kind of imaginative novel that manages to capture your attention right from the start with fantastic storytelling, engaging characters, strong dialogue and a plot that is refreshingly original. Drew Briney does a wonderful job of sucking the reader into this tale of Earth, magic, aliens, intrigue, mystery and courage to fight for what you believe in and for what remains of mankind.The story is lushly written with an eye for detail and a clear aim to entertain the reader; the story has wonderful world-building and character development that feel authentic, multi-layered and intricately woven together... creating a novel that sparks with originality, imagination and enjoyable reading. It's post-apocalyptic with a side of supernatural and emotionally charged drama that reads like an epic space opera that is both memorable and worthy of a second (or third) reread.Overall, Mr. Briney certainly made an impression with this novel, forging a connection between me and the story that I would certainly recommend to other readers.
