Review: This Needs to be a Book
Rating: 5 out of 5

Where to start here....I have so much to say and I'm afraid it's just going to be garbled. It's been awhile since I've been so excited about a new author and especially when it comes to fiction because lately I mostly read non-fiction military history or non-fiction history with a few historical romances thrown in just for fun.This author is a bit of Dean Koontz, a bit of Stephen King and a bit of Cormac McCarthy but definitely with his own spin on things.I bought/downloaded every single offering by Mr. Martinez. I'm not a great writer myself but I'm a voracious reader and I know talent when I see it and I think this author has it in spades. A little more experience, more practice and I see a best selling author in the making.This series fairly screams "I AM A BOOK!!" It just needs fleshed out a bit, maybe refined a little.Don't get me wrong, it's entertaining as it is but I think it could be absolutely FANTASTIC as a book and I sincerely hope the author is considering that option. I've read plenty of books on the best seller list that weren't as good as this writing has the potential to be.If you like any of the author's I've mentioned above or like apocolyptic fiction then I can't imagine that you wouldn't like this series. I'm not going to say it's perfect as is but the greatness is definitely there.I wish he had more for me to read. I'm feeling the same way about his writing that I feel for other favorite authors that I've "known" for years. Definitely an author to keep an eye on.
