Rating: Summary: Politics, love, murder, and mystery in one concise book Review: Dana Filmore is the first African American Secretary of State. She is smart and attractive. She is also in danger. She learns of the President's plans to do something that could affect the lives of millions of Americans. She must stop him. However, she cannot trust anyone to help her. She meets Kasi Martin, an African American District Attorney. He is smart and handsome. When they meet at a social function, they instantly like each other. Still, Dana isn't sure if she can trust him.However, Dana is forced to trust Kasi when her life is threatened. Dana and Kasi find themselves together on the run from someone who wants to kill them.This story is a noble effort. William could have written more about the actual political maneuvers and less on the character's thoughts. Although this story is fast past, it is also predictable. The murder is weak. The reader instantly knows the murderer and the victim. That could have been a mystery.Dana and Kasi are credible characters. Their intelligence saves them in many situations. They also are secure in their identity and their roles.I still recommend the book. It is an easy read.
Rating: Summary: Great and exciting Review: Excalibur's Defeat is a great book. The time and research you put into this book shows. I really enjoyed your ability to allow the readers to access the mindset of your characters. Power, politics, looks; murder etc. is a perfect fit in this book. With any of these subjects you could have written separate books but your talent allowed us to have all of this in one book. It's fast pace and the characters are well developed. You definitely have what it takes to make it. Keep up the good work.
Rating: Summary: Excalibur's Defeat .... New Author On The Rise... Review: Good mystery. Face pace. Quick read. Mr. Wright "ain't" playing around. Most of the characters are pretty well fleshed out. Never thought I enjoyed political thrillers too much; but, I must confess I enjoyed this one immensely. I guess what enhanced it even more was the African American "flava" that was flowing throughout the book. Ms. Filmore is an Intelligent sista. Definitely, held my interest. Maybe only compliant was that it was too short. I wanted to learn more about certain characters. Overall, definitely, it should be on a summer reading list. Not too heavy; but, not too light, either. Just right.... Hey I'm so proud to see fellow brotha's and sista's doing their thing with writing. Much continued success in your future endeavors and I can't wait until the next one....
Rating: Summary: Politics, love, murder, and mystery in one concise book Review: I enjoyed the fast pace thiller. It was a in between reading for me. I enjoyed the characters, I thought they were well developed. All though some character could have been left out. The drama in the book was interesting from blackmail,to murder, criminals in POWER, the politics. The Dana's love life was interesting.I thought Mary was funny. Towards the ending somethings didn't seem to realistic to me. over all its a great mystery book for Mystery FAns!Good book club read.
Rating: Summary: Good reading for mystery fans Review: Intriguing plot. How do you bring the "bad guy" down when he is the leader of the land.Great mystery. New twist on usage "drug money". The characters are well developed and the tale is credible. As the reader, I was waiting for Dana and Kasi to get together and hoping for a true romance for Mary, Kasi's secretary. The hide-and-seek scenes were excellent and I loved the touch of afrocentricity thread through the book. Good reading for mystery fans.
