Summary: Senior Citizen gets adrenaline rush from book.
Review: The pull behind Warriors in the Shadows was so great, I almost missed going to daily Mass. The smooth transitions of events from chapter to chapter took such hold of me I would have stayed up all night if my 70-year-old eyes let me. Needless to say, I gave up breakfast just to finish the book. This is a real 'wow' book and so satisfying. Even the descriptions of weapons seemed to be integral to the plot and I even read them if just to compare weapons, and for a little old lady, that is something. I love the battle scene. The writer's descriptions sure took me into the cave and yet made me see and feel for the aborigines. I see them as powerful despite their ancient practices especially in this technological world.

Summary: A surreal novel
Review: This is not quite a police type crime novel, not quite a spy thriller, and not quite a fantasy novel. It is somewhat a mixture of the three. There are two main protagonists. The first is an Australian aborigine, Alfie Woodard, who served in the Australian Special Air Service, then became a shaman who walked down the dark path before becoming an enforcer for an international drug dealer. Alfie has a habit of painting primative pictures in his victims' blood, and cooking and eating parts of their bodies, part of a ritual from the dark side.The second protagonist is Charley Payne, a former member of United States Army Special Forces, who became a contract killer for the CIA. He dropped out of the CIA work (but is still in their active files) and became a forensic photographer for the Minneapolis police department. When Alfie murders one of Charley's friends along with the friend's family, Charley chases after him, going to Australia for revenge. Charley is able to activate old assets, as his former employer has an interest in both Alfie and Alfie's boss. Some of the novel may seem a little unrealistic, but surreal novels tend to be that way. There is sorcery and connections to a dream world. Some parts seem a little unfinished, as you may wonder what happened to some of the secondary characters, but overall it is a good story if you like this type of fiction. I prefer stories that are not surreal, but rated it based on its genre. I will pass it on to a friend who likes this type novel. I would give the novel an R rating based on content. It is not a story for children.

Summary: Wynne Strikes Again!
Review: This was another good book by Marcus Wynne.He has turned out to be one of the most unique writers that I have read. In this
book our hero is Charley Payne.He has left his employment at the
CIA to become a forensic photographer for the Minneapolis police.
Payne is called in to photograph scene where the victim is
partially devoured.Charley also notices a painting on the wall from the Aboriginis.
The murderer is Alfie Woodard who is an Aborigini warrior who also served in the SAS.Alfie is a contract killer who works for
Jay Burrell a big drug dealer.Alfie uses his tribal practices to
strike fear in his victims.Alfie kills one of Charley Payne's friends and his family.
Charley hooks up with Kativa Patel,an expert in Laura region art.They fly together to Australia to pursue Alfie Woodard.Once
there a battle ensues.
This is another good book fron Marcus Wynne who has come up
with another frightening villain in Alfie Woodard.In "No Other Option" Jonny Maxwell were scary as well.Buy this book and read it. It is excellent.
