Editorial Review For Gavril's Plan: Life and Death

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CM6YW52Z/

Editorial Review For Gavril's Plan: Life and Death

Anastasia V. Fedkin’s Gavril's Plan: Life and Death introduces readers to a future scarred by World War III, where the boundaries between control, freedom, and survival blur. The narrative follows Rohan, a reluctant student with hidden powers, navigating life in a restrictive society governed by a ruthless regime. With themes ranging from human cybernetics to mutant persecution, this book isn’t exactly your relaxing weekend read—think less escapist fantasy, more depressing peek into humanity’s inevitable decline.

Fedkin crafts a setting that feels eerily real, effectively capturing a post-war environment where every conversation could be your last. The strengths of the story lie in its clear portrayal of government surveillance, power struggles, and the desperation of people caught in between. There’s also some sharp commentary here, especially regarding authority and resistance, giving readers plenty to chew on.

This book fits right into the dystopian sci-fi genre, echoing classic themes of oppression and rebellion. It doesn't exactly break new ground, but it taps effectively into current anxieties about technology, privacy, and state power—perfect for those who prefer their fiction with a side of existential dread.

If you enjoy questioning authority, or simply get satisfaction from watching fictional governments implode, you'll probably like this book. On the other hand, if you're looking for a cheerful, feel-good read, you might want to keep browsing.

Overall, Gavril’s Plan: Life and Death is recommended for readers who can stomach a gritty exploration of humanity’s darker tendencies. It’s thought-provoking, grim, and a bit unsettling—which may be exactly the point.

 

Editorial Review For Wild Life

https://books2read.com/u/mdR0Lw

Editorial Review For Wild Life

In Wild Life, Eric Leafton introduces readers to an alien planet where tigers talk, dinosaurs roam, and humans are the villains. At the heart of the story is Gem, a human child adopted by a tiger named Lumis. He grows up among wild creatures and constantly tries to befriend animals who would rather eat him than chat. Typical childhood, really.

Leafton's writing shines when he shows relationships forming between unlikely friends. Gem’s interactions with his adoptive family are believable and warm without becoming overly sentimental. The story cleverly mixes themes of acceptance, revenge, and the classic struggle between nature and technology. For a book with talking animals and laser guns, it manages to say something thoughtful about how creatures relate to each other.

The novel sits comfortably in the young adult adventure genre, echoing trends seen in fantasy survival stories. Think Tarzan but with dinosaurs, spaceships, and fewer vine swings. Younger readers who enjoy action-packed adventures with a dash of heart will find plenty here.

While Wild Life won't make you rethink life's big questions, it will hold your attention. It’s ideal for those who like their coming-of-age stories to involve triceratops fights and revenge-seeking tigers. Go ahead and read it—just don’t be surprised if you find yourself rooting for the talking animals over the people.

The Marvellous Adventures of Flashrat

https://jonbardi.com/

https://amzn.to/4coJRy0

The Marvellous Adventures of Flashrat is a Choose Your Own Downfall book—or , if you prefer, a Decide Your Own Death.

In this deeply questionable tale, you play as Scott Macarthur, council toilet cleaner (freelance). A man of simple pleasures and even simpler hygiene habits, Scott resides in an abandoned shopping trolley in his local park after being booted out by his wife—who, as it turns out, has been up to all sorts of shenanigans with Scott’s best friend. But hope is not lost! There’s a chance—a tiny, whisky-stained chance—that Scott might just be a superhero in the making. He’s got a costume (sort of), a purpose (ish), and a mentor: the mysterious, possibly imaginary vigilante known only as Flashrat. Is Flashrat a genuine English-speaking crimefighter? Or is Scott just incredibly dehydrated and off his rocker from drinking something blue he found behind the Co-op? Will you guide Scott toward redemption, heroism, and maybe even a home with an actual roof? Will Scott get his revenge on his wife, or will you lead him to a gooey, romantic, mills-and-boony reunion? …or will your decisions lead him to an inevitable, blood-soaked end involving evil mad scientists, the Yakuza, an evil genius living inside a volcano, a wolf-man (of sorts), a mysterious cobbler, the Brotherhood of the Bogbrush, secret microfilms, and, of course, the KGB? Be warned: ADULTS ONLY! Contains humour as black as your ex’s heart.

He was just an average kid… until the map of a hundred kings' treasure called his name.
Ray Taylor – an average school boy from a small town who, to his great disappointment and regret, happens to be belowaverage in height – is growing up with his pediatric nurse mother, and without a father, whom he misses very much. Pestered by the bully Murrayand his pals, he is saved from the daily grind of school routine by his love of drawing, something that his sketch-filled notebook and the constant complaints of his teachers attest to. But there is a special secret that he can only entrust to his best friend, retriever Buddy. Yet there is something that beckons him even more than hisartwork, and his first, timid infatuation with his classmate Jane – that is the search for infinite treasures.

By a stroke fate, having been detained in the home of a strange elderly neighbor, Ray finds himself in the company of 17th century cutthroats and takes his place as the seventh and, as it so happens, missing member of a crew of pirates. On board of the schooner Celestine, Ray sets off on dangerous and captivating adventures across the seven, in no way resembling each other, distant worlds, in search of the seven glowing magical stones hidden there.

It is these magical stones that, instead of seven keys, open the seven chests that lie undisturbed in a grotto on a mysterious, paradise-like island of Tuki-Tuki, on the bottom of which repose the seven parts of the torn and tattered map of the buried treasures. The legends promise the daredevils, who have reached the grotto, treasures fit not just for a single king, but enough to satisfy the desires of an entire hundred kings. Their way is guided by the dead Bloodthirsty Cook himself, through the pages of his Secret Book. Battling the devils in hell, at cards, bad-mouthing and cursingCaptian Archie and his crew, Cook reveals to Archie each new step, but only after Archie undergoes ordeals, on dry land and on the high seas. Crowning all of these is the puzzle of Cook himself. Where should they sail to and where should they search? All the hidden answers would be revealed in The Secret Book, if only all of its pages weren't left entirely blank...
Set sail with Ray on a dazzling, danger-packed voyage across seven mysterious worlds—and discover how even the smallest hero can unlock the greatest treasures.

Editorial Review for Bigi & Lala: Tales from the Tiny Pond

Bigi & Lala: Tales from the Tiny Pond takes a simple story—two fish sisters starting their first grown-up job—and turns it into a humorous, charming read. Bigi, who prefers numbers over chatter, and Lala, who enjoys chatting over counting pearls, manage to make auditing kelp inventory entertaining (yes, really).

The strength here is the book’s humor and believable characters. Bigi and Lala feel like coworkers you already know. Supporting characters like Mr. Grouper, who constantly questions everyone's competence, and Mr. Pinch, the crab merchant who panics over missing pearls, bring energy to each scene.

If you're looking for a cheerful story about figuring things out (and occasionally messing up), Bigi & Lala is a solid choice. It proves even fish auditors can be heroes—just not the flashy kind. This would be a good read for children 7+  to learn about working life. It’s also a good choice for parents wanting to teach kids about growing up and taking responsibilities.

Editorial Review For Cocaine Cowboy

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F24XHY72/

Editorial Review For Cocaine Cowboy

Cocaine Cowboy by X'ernona Woods tells a story of loss, survival, and the harsh realities of growing up amid chaos. The narrative centers around a young protagonist raised by his grandmother, facing the absence of maternal affection and the crushing weight of addiction that consumes his mother. Woods doesn't shy away from painting an honest portrait of life where love and struggle constantly collide.

The book's strength lies in its raw portrayal of emotions and relationships. The author captures the complicated bond between mother and child vividly. Particularly impactful is the way Woods depicts the protagonist's longing for his mother's love—contrasted starkly against her destructive relationship with alcohol.

Woods skillfully taps into the popular urban drama genre, where personal tragedy and community challenges are prominent. Readers who appreciate gritty, realistic fiction dealing with family struggles and urban life hardships will resonate with this narrative.

Overall, Cocaine Cowboy is recommended for those looking for a hard-hitting story grounded in real, often uncomfortable truths about family, addiction, and survival.

 

Editorial Review For Steven Sparrow & the Shade of a Great Tree

https://www.amazon.com/dp/1735494828/

Editorial Review For Steven Sparrow & the Shade of a Great Tree

Matthew Dale Jones’s Steven Sparrow & the Shade of a Great Tree is about a young bird named Steven who decides he'd rather walk than fly—a choice that turns his community upside down. This book dives into themes like independence, friendship, and figuring out your place in life.

Jones’s strengths lie in creating believable characters. Steven is stubborn, which leads him into both trouble and growth. His friend Mouse adds emotional depth, showing readers the value and limits of loyalty. The family dynamics are spot-on, with a worried mother and frustrated father dealing with a kid who insists on going against the grain.

In the tradition of animal adventure stories, Jones mixes in humor, danger, and a touch of philosophy. He reminds readers of classic coming-of-age stories but with feathers and fur instead of teens and suburbia.

This book will land well with younger readers who enjoy animal tales that blend humor with life's big questions. Adults might chuckle at the spot-on depiction of family drama but could tire of Steven’s stubborn antics.

If you're okay rolling your eyes at Steven’s endless quest for independence, give it a read. It’s a decent reminder that sometimes being unique isn't all it's cracked up to be—but makes for a good story anyway.

Editorial Review For Little Joe and the Big Rain

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D2XXR6GV

Editorial Review For Little Joe and the Big Rain

Little Joe and the Big Rain by Mike Darcy tells the story of Little Joe, a puppy who stumbles into trouble after following his frog friend, Hopper, into the woods. A simple journey turns messy when a sudden rainstorm hits. They encounter odd creatures, from a hungry bear to a deer with weird-looking branches on its head.

The plot moves quickly, and the interactions between characters are amusing enough to keep young readers entertained. The story's main strength is the balance between action and humor. Hopper, with his cranky complaints, and Little Joe’s clueless curiosity make them a good pair for a story about unintended adventures.

This book fits into the classic tradition of animal adventures, familiar in children’s literature. Its storyline about getting lost and finding unlikely help will remind readers of older tales, though the setting feels fresh and updated.

Parents looking for a short, funny story to read aloud to their kids will appreciate this one. Kids under seven who enjoy stories with talking animals will like it best. Older children might find the plot predictable but could still enjoy the funny dialogue.

If your kids like misadventures that end nicely, Little Joe and the Big Rain will likely please them. Just be prepared to explain why fly soup probably won't be on the dinner menu tonight.

The Sovereign Perspective: Unity Solutions in Times of Unprecedented Division

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXMKC447/

Author Interview The Sovereign Perspective

What inspired you to write The Sovereign Perspective?

Coming from a very old royal family, I was raised to observe the world through the lens of seeking constructive ways to promote the common good and achieve lasting results. Since I was 11 years old, I have been deeply shocked by how many educated individuals can arrive at conclusions and take actions that are utterly stupid. By “stupid,” I mean to refer to Bonhoeffer’s definition—not simply a lack of intelligence or knowledge, but a “mental block” that leads us to reject or ignore common sense, logic, facts, and expertise. Throughout my life, I have been unconsciously striving to refine and perfect my critical thinking. It's not an easy task and requires constant effort. One of my masters used to say that our minds are like horses; if we do not consistently train them, they will eventually refuse to accept our direction. If we do not remain vigilant and aware, any of us can fall into stupid thinking, regardless of our intelligence or education. I felt compelled to write this book after years of passionately teaching the concept of the “Sovereign Perspective.” I firmly believe that this powerful framework can guide humanity on a path toward avoiding the mistakes of our past and forging a brighter future.

In your book, you talk about unity and division. Why is this issue so important to you?

Because the main reason we face a significant number of problems in our world today is our tendency to foster division. While disagreeing is healthy and necessary, it must be done constructively. We have created a constant, binary, Manichean, triumphalist narrative of "us against them," portraying others as the problem that must be eliminated. This mentality only breeds violence and destruction. Currently, opinions often manifest as emotional, irrational reactions driven by ideology, passion, or aversion, rather than being based on a careful analysis of facts and evidence guided by common sense. This growing division is making the world increasingly stupid. Looking back at history, we can see that such divisions always lead to destruction.

What exactly is the "sovereign perspective," and how does it work in everyday life?

When reflecting on Plato’s vision of the philosopher-king, Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius,  and the “Anti-Machiavel” of Prussian King Frederick the Great, we arrive at a profound understanding of the sovereign perspective—the ideal way a ruler should think and act. A “perfect ruler” embodies qualities of impartiality, justice, and constructive leadership, placing the welfare of every subject above all else, regardless of their ethnicity, religion, or ideology. This noble concept reaches far beyond the realm of politics; it finds resonance in businesses, families, and countless other aspects of life. Just as a CEO serves as the ruler of a company, parents assume the role of rulers within their family, guiding with wisdom and care.
