Taj's Sabbatical:

Book One, Sol System Enforcer Chronicles


Taj was looking forward to his two-year sabbatical from the Sol System Enforcers. At the young age of 62, he was hoping for another 50 years as an Enforcer, but right now, he needed time off. Taj, and his partner Taddy, were planning travel to Festival City in the Asteroid Belt.


But, evil never rests. As Taj prepared for a peaceful retreat, his enemies had a different plan. Someone very powerful wanted Taj dead and wasn't afraid to target his family to prove their point. All Taj knew was that he must present himself in Armstrong City of Luna in a single day, or Taddy would die on the Carousel.

Taj's family all spring into action to rescue Taddy and prevent Taj from sacrificing himself. By Taj's side were Sammy and the Twins, three of the best military class synthetics found in the Sol System and fellow Enforcers ready to fight. Together with Taj's dead father Fencer, who recently transferred his consciousness into the ARK, his mother Dyani and younger brother Jayce they battle time and powerful enemies in order to survive.

Review


The importance of family cannot be overemphasized. Most people can go to any length, even in the face of deadly odds, to protect their families. 
Taj's Sabbatical by Artell Smith and Troy Smith is a sci-fi and suspense thriller that tells the story of dedication to family and sacrifice above everything.

Taj, a 62-year-old enforcer, was enjoying his sabbatical when he got a message that his partner, Taddy, had been captured by Fayzaan, the evil and sadistic Crown Prince, who was hellbent on revenge. His only option was to surrender himself to save Taddy's life. Taj contacted his parents and brother, who swung into action. With the help of other enforcers and very skilled synthetics, they embarked on a dangerous journey to save Taddy and Taj.

I totally enjoyed the book. I particularly loved the fact that it was set in the future, with very amazing technological advancements and innovations. These innovations were at first difficult to grasp, but they were well described, which made them easy to envision. I also loved the bond between the family members and the core values, such as sacrifice and love, shown by the members of the family. Equally noteworthy was the sacrifice, bravery, and grit displayed by the other enforcers and synthetics, which was very heroic and commendable. The terms in the book were well described and explained, making it very easy to understand and enjoy the story. I totally loved the story.

I did not dislike anything about the book. Although I found a few terminologies a little hard to understand, they were adequately explained. There was a beautiful balance between action and emotion, which made the book way more interesting. The author's writing style was very refreshing, with very interesting innovations and technological advancements. I really enjoyed the book.

I rate this book 
five out of five stars for its intriguing and suspense-filled story. The book was expertly edited, and I found no grammatical errors while reading it. I wholeheartedly recommend this book for lovers of sci-fi books with intriguing technological innovations. I also highly recommend this book for individuals looking for a beautiful suspense-filled thriller novel. This book will definitely keep you on the edge of your seat. -OnlineBookClub

The Transformation of CHARLOTTE POOLE


I only wanted to be cured! That's what I told Adam Damon. Cure me. Save me. I've been sick for years. My doctor told me I'm going to die in a matter of weeks. No one can heal me. Only you ... 

His solution was to strap me to his miracle invention: the Damon Machine. 
Electrodes on my skin pumped hundreds of volts right into my body. Buzzing and zapping like I was filled with wasps. 

That cure almost killed me. But I lived through it - and I woke up into the nightmare of what he'd done! 

He didn't heal me. He made me into something much, much worse. Lightning in my hands! High velocity electric voltage coursing through my veins. I can kill people with just one touch. 

And now I've got to work with the madman who transformed me.
Because if I don't control these dangerous powers, I'll be a menace to society. And if I can control them? Then the world needs me like it's never needed anyone before. 

Join me, Charlotte Poole, on my unbelievable journey of transformation from a regular teenage girl into one of the most influential - and powerful - people of the1880s. It's all here, in the "Charlotte Poole" series.
