RE: Take No More by Seb Kirby

Hi

Here's an extract from a 5-star review by John Harding of Take No More. (It means a lot to me since John is a highly respected writer and author of Florence and Giles):

"The comparisons with Harlan Coben are well merited because this is a gripping thriller in the same vein. It begins with the aftermath of a violent act and doesn't let up until the end. As an author who always aims for momentum and suspense myself, I take my hat off to Kirby. ...... Well recommended for a quick (there's not enough of it, but I mean that in a nice way) and exciting read."

Best wishes


Seb

Hi

It's not always the most erudite reviews that mean the most.

As in this recent 5-star review of Take No More:

'Seb Kirby, brought London and Florence to life for me. I was capitivated from the first 2 pages, i kept wanting to read more and more and more - in fact i read this in 2 sittings in one day. Several twists, i thought i had it sussed at one point, only to be let down - which was great. I look forward to reading more of his books.'

Best wishes

Hi

I was thinking, if I had to pick just one of the reviews of TNM, which on would it be?

I think it would be this one:

Hi

KDP Select going well.

One advantage is that writer colleagues are more likely to pick up your book, read it and review it. Here's one such recent review :

'Seb Kirby has written a fast paced thriller, full of twists and turns. His research is extensive into the worlds of art and art restoration, police procedural matters, and several famous Italian cities. One of his accomplishments is that his erudition is worn lightly - the reader is not preached at. The writing becomes surer as the story proceeds, which it does in logical fashion. Several twists had me thinking, "I wish I'd thought of that!," and the complicated attempt to bring down a Mafia type clan, no sure thing at the outset, is skillfully and believably set forth. I would only suggest an occasional change of the emotional pace - the more to entrap the reader, if you will - and a few more details about the settings, to distinguish the Italian locations more clearly from each other. This is a fine effort, and I look forward to more stirring tales from Mr. Kirby.'

Best wishes

Hi

Looking for a page turner? Check out Take No More - the Murder Mystery Thriller.

My name is James Blake.

A single act turns my life upside down. I come home to find my wife, Julia, shot and bleeding. She dies in my arms.

The police are no help. I'm sure they're trying to fit me up for the murder.

I check Julia's messages and find just one. It says 'help me'. It comes with a strange, old image of a woman being seduced. It's all I have to go on. That and the fact that someone is trying to kill me.

But I will find Julia's killers, no matter what it takes.

Get it now at bargain price.

Just click the signature image for the link.

Best wishes
