Well-Written and Fun!,
By ienjoyagoodbook (Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Phoenix (Paperback)
S. Alden Reilly has written a book that made me feel good. "ThePhoenix" is upbeat and refreshing. The author's humor is subtle and fast-paced. "...Out of the corner of my eye I saw Layne fishing around in her duffle bag. God, I thought, she's going to shoot him! "She pulled out a small black object that looked like a cordless phone and hissed into it..." I'll keep this book to read again and again.

Great characters in a swift story,
By Chris Beakey "Chris" (Lewes, Delaware and Washington, DC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Phoenix (Paperback)
The Phoenix is a terrific book, told by a charming lead character who goes through a remarkable transformation as she takes action to solve a mystery and reconcile her confused feelings for her late husband. There were many amusing moments -- all woven perfectly into a swift story. The action scenes were strikingly well-written. S. Alden Reilly is very talented, and exceptionally skilled in capturing the details that bring characters to life. This is the start of a great series.

By Victor (Accokeek, Maryland United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Phoenix (Paperback)
I found the Phoenix to be an excellent read. The character development and plot development were superb. I read it from start to finish without putting it down. The interesting plot twists and turns will hold your attention to the very end. The characters are very interesting and entertaining. I am anixously awaiting the next book--hopefully, it will become a series.
