Review: The Chosen by Shay Fabbro

Book one of the Portals of Destiny is The Chosen, and Shay Fabbro takes reader to five planets with distinct environments, beings, and cultures.  From their prophetic scrolls, the Gentrans know of the horror of the Mekans, planet-invading machines that remove all minerals and resources, essentially killing all inhabitants and rendering a planet lifeless.  And they are coming.

Review: Infinite Sacrifice by L. E. Waters
