Daedalus Rocks, October 20, 2009; By L. Lewis (Los Angeles, Ca)

This book is great…kept me wanting more! I can’t wait for the next in the series!

A Home Run for the First Time at Bat!, October 16, 2009; By Robert Wenaas “R. J. Wenaas” (Florida’s Space Coast)

The Essence of Daedalus Rimes is a refreshing change from the typical science fiction offerings of new authors.  The book has the usual features of abductions, evil aliens, cloning, memory transplants and faster than light travel, but also has an alien species with surprising sensitivity and values, political intrigue, fire fights, and swordplay along with small doses of love, sex and rock an’ roll. The pace of the story is consistently fast, lacking the page filling and mind numbing quasi-technical explanations that bog down many author’s first works. H. W. Lewis’ sensitive portrayal of the protagonist Teela’s actions and thoughts as a feminine, but alien, character is impressive. The author indicates the total story will be contained in three or more volumes. If the succeeding books are as well written and entertaining as the first, the series deserves a wide and appreciative audience.

Entertaining and Satisfying, October 5, 2009; By luvs2read “L2R” (Encinitas, Ca)

I loved this sci-fi novel! The alien protagonist, Teela, is one of the strongest and most interesting female characters I’ve ever seen in fiction. The story is exciting and fast moving, and the alien culture is well imagined, complex and subtle. I’m looking forward to reading the next book in the series!
