Synopsis: Growing up in South Central Los Angeles, Smoke, from his early childhood days witnessed domestic violence and experienced abuse by the hands of his own father. When his mother turns to drugs for comfort, Smoke ventures out into the mean streets of Los Angeles seeking the respect and security he never found at home. Only to find more abuse, community violence, and daily drama.
His sad, emotional, disturbing and at the same time extremely insightful story is only one of many. This book provides a rare insight into the emotional world of a boy growing to be a man, a story of someone who, after years of being trapped in these streets, is dealing with the severe after-effects of this lifestyle.
This novella is giving those a voice who are afraid to talk about their experiences.
Review: This is my first read by this author. Held my attention from beginning to end. Enjoyed the storyline and it was well written. Insight into the life of a young man in the gang life. As a young man his family life and the things that happen, played a major role in his actions. Will he ever find peace or forever be searching. Good job N.M.K.

Advertisements: Danark
It’s been five years since the Great War for the planet Giya ended. Much was lost during that period, and nobody knows that more than Marlow, the planet’s chosen champion and leader of the defender group known as Danark. The devastating loss to Cyron, the now ruler of Giya, has taken its toll on not only Marlow, but others who seek to defeat the tyrant for their own wellbeing. One of those seeking revenge is the Militia leader Corrado, who has overseen the creation of a weapon that can destroy Cyron and all his followers for good. In order for his sinister plan to work, he’ll need the aid of his sworn enemies in Danark. With former Danark member Sonja being held hostage and under Cyron’s control, and a manipulative Corrado with his own agenda, a conflicted Marlow struggles to carry out what needs to be done to save his old friend and the planet with the faith he’s lost in himself. Along with Corrina, DC, and others, Marlow sets out on a quest to not only regain faith in himself, but rescue a planet that has suffered for far too long.

Review: I follow this author and this was totally different from his previous work. I love the different characters in each chapter, especially Krysia. I think she was the most developed of the main characters. Overall not a bad read.

Review: This book is the prequel to “The Diary of Lellow” which I purchased when it dropped. Let me tell you, I always wondered about Lellow, since that book is a diary based on her own words. Was she telling the truth? Who knows, because you only got her version. This one though, you get to see what made her the person she becomes in the first book. You also see her therapist Jennifer, Gia (from the follow up book The Diary of Gia), and a few others from the other books as well. I love how the last chapter ties into the first book. Overall, this book was fun, and I enjoyed learning a little of the background of one of my recent favorite book characters. Well done E. Nigma!!!!! Can’t wait to see what you drop next!

Advertisements: NOLA Street Tales: The Rise of Sharice
In the city of New Orleans, crime is at an all-time high as the streets are flushed with drugs and poverty as most inner cities are. This city is different; however, one of the major players in the drug game is a female, which is unheard of on the streets.
For years, Sharice has worked to build her reputation to survive in the male-dominated drug game and has almost made it to the top in the Faction, a criminal organization that consists of three different bosses who control several major cities. With all the work she’s put in, Sharice feels she’s earned the right to become the organization’s first female boss.
While she has the backing of Atlanta Boss, the mafia connected John ‘Johnny Boy’ Bianchi, due to her support in the past, she’s yet to sway Miami Boss Rico Hernandez, or her own Boss, ‘Money’ Mike Rashad. Tensions run high when a local dealer decides to test Sharice and her crew to take back what he believes is his territory.
With schemes and betrayal going against her, a new FBI investigation specifically targeting her, and an old flame returning to her life, this is a tale of one woman trying to maintain as things around her begin to crumble. Will she sacrifice everything she believes in and everyone she loves in order to achieve the top spot?
