Travelling without moving by Nathan Jones

By Emma Fitzgerald -
Thank you @NathanJonesbook for me read and review this book. Travelling without Moving is a science fiction and enjoyable read that takes you into totally different world. The imagery in this book was amazing. The pace of the book was good and you can tell the amount of work Nathan Jones has put into this book. There are a lot of characters in the book and they are all likeable I enjoyed following them on their journeys. I was hooked and could not put the book down. This is a genre I don't read much of but I am glad I read Travelling without Moving, it took me to a totally different world. I found this book a great experience and I am honoured to had read it. 5 stars. This is the first book I have read by Nathan Jones and I will read more in the future. Blurb An up paced adventure through a world like no other, following unique, quirky characters on the journey of their lifetime. Plenty of novels are set in domes, but none are as colourful, spellbinding, and inventive as Travelling Without Moving. Earth is in ruins, uninhabitable, and the remaining population live in bio-domes. A Roman tribesman, Napalm Carton, believes that life in his clockwork habitat is some kind of lie. A trap, or a construct, or an experiment gone wrong, whatever. Post-apocalyptic existence makes no sense to him, and all he wants to do is escape to the reality beyond the dome of lies. Spurred on by visions, Napalm creates a multiplayer game called tickets, with the intention of opening a door to the next level of existence. He needs the help of his sceptical friends, but first, he has to convince them that the tickets are more than a game. He also needs to confirm his suspicions that someone or something is trying to steal his invention before it’s game over for everyone. Bio Nathan Jones here. Professionally trained sheep fart tester. Born in Blackburn, 1973, I have been privileged to live in many places but I currently reside in South Wales with my wife and two cats, Spook and Choo-choo. I'm a long time reader of speculative fiction and just about anything else that's well-written and engaging. For a while I supported aspiring authors by offering a free beta reading service, but since I've grown in popularity, I've begun to charge a minimal fee (if you beg hard enough, however, I'll still consider helping you for free). I very much enjoy reading self-published works and supporting self-published authors. And if I don't sell lots of books myself, I fully intend to destroy the entire universe simply out of bitterness. I have two books published currently: Travelling Without Moving - A post-apocalyptic, dystopian, clockpunk adventure.

Thank you @strangelymagic and @neemtreepress for letting me review this book. War of the wind is 220 pages snd is you g adukt fiction. I really enjoyed reading this book and felt like ot held my attention to the end. I really like the characters my favourite where Max, Beanie and Erin. I love the plot with the evil Doctor Asheood and the wind turbines. It was lovely to see Max develop and start to accept his disabiliny and for Max to have the strengh to tell his dad how he felt about him not communicate with him. My heart did go out to dad ehen i found out why. It did make me sad in places but its great read and gripped me. I slso liked hid uncle and twister. I feel young adults will love this story its diffent and its grest suspence.

The Pawnshop of Stolen Dreams is for young adults between 9-13 years, which will keep them entertained till the end. The story is dark and well-written. The illustrations are amazing and great fantasy. The story is at a great pace and love adventure running through the book 5 stars. Blurb In a strange little village called Witchetty Hollow, eleven-year-old Florizel is the first to run into the curious visitors who've come to open a brand new Daydream Delicatessen and sack-baby factory.

But after a few weeks, Florizel starts to notice something odd happening ...

Thank you @NikkiTgriffiths , @Seeshespeak and @Melivillehouse for letting me part of this tour and reviewing this book. I love the front cover its very eye catching witch would make me pick up to read the blurb. I like the title to. I found hanging out very instresting read its very true how people lost on technology and how we lost the connections in the real world since covid. I found it difficult and awakard going to social situations not knowing what to say or woundering if people want me there all because we been locjed away. I like how Sheila highlights her importance for us to hang out togther and how socialsing has changed through the years. Hanging out is written well and easy to get into and the topic is well researched. 4 stars. The digital age has consumed us. Every time we unlock our phones, we disengage from our social interactions. As a digital society we have fractured our real-life relationships, splintered our attention and created social voids. We overcompensate f...
