Interdimensional
travel is much more of a reality these days making Volume 1 of Spyrits
by RJ Newbould both relevant, thought provoking and possible. It
is an interesting story with twists and turns that the reader doesnt
see coming. As David and Tanya hone their new found skills in mind
control and time travel stories unfold in a very interesting manner.
I am looking forward to Volume 2 and I cant wait to see if
they have fallen into the hands of double agents or kindred souls
in Nikolas and Natasha.

Hello,
RJ.
Good
story! It is a well-written page-turner. I would have enjoyed
a little more flesh on the storys good bones, though. Add
some details that sharpen the focus on the good guys and the bad
guys. I hope the sequel is twice as long, and just as exciting.
You have a very inventive mind, RJ, and not merely in the shop.
Keep writing! Ill gladly buy the next one, too.

R. J. Newbould has put together
an interesting story that combines science fiction, the paranormal,
and a small bit of fantasy. His protagonists, David and Tanya, have
abilities to walk outside their bodies (astral projection). This
helps them locate killers that are seeking the source of their power.
While
creative, the one thing the author didnt do is place serious
challenges to using this power. They were told to avoid drinking
alcohol. Being tricked into drinking a spiked drink could have
upped the tensions. They could have also been forced to confront
their foes on the astral plane. The result is that the crises
are somewhat unsatisfying. All the elements are there, and it
will be interesting to see if the author challenges the protagonists
in a more significant fashion.

Although,
Si-Fi is not my typical genre I found Spyrits interesting and
a quick read. As RJ's debut novel I think he did a great job with
weaving the plot and characters.
The main characters, David
& Tanya find each other and love blossoms as well as their
knowledge and skill as travelers within their universe.
As a Christian I found the
idea of spirits leaving the body at will a little disturbing but
taking the book completely as a work of FICTION I had fun with
the topic.
Nelson Mandela - Long Walk
to Freedom, The Hiding Place by Corrie Ten Boom, mysteries by
John Sandford or Gillian Flynn are more my typical read.
Spyrits was entertaining and
amusing. In future books I'd like to see the character's personalities
mature and story line become more sophisticated and suspenseful

I
really enjoyed this book because it dealt with quantum physics,
parallel universes and the continuum of life, All subjects that
interest me. It's good food for thought.

Very
interesting read. Finished it in 1 day. You have to pay attention
to the twists and turns of the plot to follow all. I don't read
many books twice. I may with this one due to the details that
I think I missed. Hopefully this will continue as a series....

The best thing that I can say about
this unpredictable, yet believable, episode of "Spyrits"
is that it was way too short! Can't wait for the movie (lol).
But seriously, Newbould knows how to keep us wanting more.....

I
have just finished reading the novel Spyrits 1, by the author RJ
Newbould.
I read the novel in two days, primarily
because I had trouble putting it down. It is hard to believe that
this is Mr. Newbould`s first novel. It is well written, Grammatically
and geographically correct, not to mention, very interesting.
Looking forward to the next one.

Once
I had become well oriented to the characters and the background
layout of the plot, I found the story line to be very creative
and most intriguing. It is smoothly developed, with one situation
leading suavely into each one that follows. In general, the book
is so cleverly composed, that I found myself becoming quite spellbound
as the narrative continued. The section dealing with the Filipino
assassins is particularly well done. I deeply anticipate the arrival
of Volume 2. and most definitely am in the market to purchase
it.

In
reading this first volume of Spyrits, I was able to imagine what
it would be like if such scientific possibilities existed. And
to be honest, I was quite excited. Should these things be possible,
sign. me. up. It took me the first couple chapters to get into
the authors way of writing, but once I did the story flowed easily
and I was able to get into the story quite well and enjoyed it
tremendously. A Terrific read, and am looking forward to seeing
what is in store for volume II ~ I can only imagine.
