THE VISITOR Reviews |
|
"I read Barbara Raffin's alien clone novel, THE VISITOR, within a matter of hours.
I couldn't put it down! It has an unusual plotline that's fresh and intriguing with
three-dimensional characters so compelling I was drawn hook, line, and sinker into
their quests. Barbara has a gorgeous way of writing that allows her readers to feel
every nuance her characters feel. THE VISITOR is a book you'll want to tell all your
friends about." --Karen Wiesner, award-winning author of the romantic psychological thrillers and Writer’s Digest top selling FIRST DRAFT IN 30 DAYS http://www.karenwiesner.com Says Jaqueline Lichtenberg in her article "Do You Suppose it Really is All About Love?" "THE VISITOR is one of those apparently trivial novels that is actually vastly profound. This novel…might become a blatant remake of the film Starman [but, while] Starman [director] John Carpenter takes us into a cross-country road-movie love story filled with Indiana Jones style chase/stunt scenes. [Raffin] in the Romance Novel format, is free to keep us tied to that interesting old house, small town, and the threat of [discovery]. [When] Rebecca asks her Starman: "How can you know for certain that no one can take you away from The Bluffs?" and he answers, "Because I am authorized to kill anyone who tries to make me leave" …we know [THE VISITOR] is not at all like the film Starman." Read the whole article at: http://www.lightworks.com/MonthlyAspectarian/2005/July/lichtenberg.htm Barb Raffin's THE VISITOR starts out with a bang. Mix a grieving widow, a nude visitor who bears an uncanny resemblance to her dead husband, and a secluded lake house, and you have one exciting read. --Julie Skerven author of Her Heart's Desire at http://webpages.charter.net/julieskerven/index.html [THE VISITOR is] "something new and different in romance, a tale that will please the romantic and sci fi fan. Recommended as a fun read from the pen of talented Barbara Raffin. You'll be looking for other tales by this author. Enjoy." --Anne K. Edwards http://www.ebook-reviews.net/ and http://www.mysteryfiction.net/reviews.html 5 ANGELS from Fallen Angel Reviews: "Barbara Raffin weaves a lot of storyline into one book. Plots and subplots, main characters and minor characters are terrific. Very intriguing, kept me turning the pages to find out what would happen next. Even if you are not a Sci-Fi fan I encourage you to open The Visitor. It is an enjoyable suspenseful romantic read. The ending is pure satisfaction." --Reviewed by: Tracey http://www.fallenangelreviews.com/July2005/Tracey-TheVisitor.htm |
