PRAISE FOR CHEREE ALSOP

The Silver Series

“Cheree Alsop has written
Silver
for the YA reader who enjoys both werewolves and coming-of-age tales. Although I don’t fall into this demographic, I still found it an entertaining read on a long plane trip! The author has put a great deal of thought into balancing a tale that could apply to any teen (death of a parent, new school, trying to find one’s place in the world) with the added spice of a youngster dealing with being exceptionally different from those around him, and knowing that puts him in danger.”

—Robin Hobb, author of the Farseer Trilogy

“I honestly am amazed this isn’t absolutely EVERYWHERE! Amazing book. Could NOT put it down! After reading this book, I purchased the entire series!”

—Josephine, Amazon Reviewer

“Great book, Cheree Alsop! The best of this kind I have read in a long time. I just hope there is more like this one.”

—Tony Olsen

“I couldn’t put the book down. I fell in love with the characters and how wonderfully they were written. Can’t wait to read the 2
nd
!”

—Mary A. F. Hamilton

“A page-turner that kept me wide awake and wanting more. Great characters, well written, tenderly developed, and thrilling. I loved this book, and you will too.”

—Valerie McGilvrey

“Super glad that I found this series! I am crushed that it is at its end. I am sure we will see some of the characters in the next series, but it just won’t be the same. I am 41 years old, and am only a little embarrassed to say I was crying at 3 a.m. this morning while finishing the last book. Although this is a YA series, all ages will enjoy the Silver Series. Great job by Cheree Alsop. I am excited to see what she comes up with next.”

—Jennc, Amazon Reviewer

The Galdoni Series

“This is absolutely one of the best books I have ever read in my life! I loved the characters and their personalities, the storyline and the way it was written. The bravery, courage and sacrifice that Kale showed was amazing and had me scolding myself to get a grip and stop crying! This book had adventure, romance and comedy all rolled into one terrific book I LOVED the lesson in this book, the struggles that the characters had to go through (especially the forbidden love)...I couldn’t help wondering what it would be like to live among such strangely beautiful creatures that acted, at times, more caring and compassionate than the humans. Overall, I loved this book...I recommend it to ANYONE who fancies great books.”

—iBook Reviewer

“I was pleasantly surprised by this book! The characters were so well written as if the words themselves became life. The sweet romance between hero and heroine made me root for the underdog more than I usually do! I definitely recommend this book!”

—Sara Phillipp

“Can't wait for the next book!! Original idea and great characters. Could not put the book down; read it in one sitting.”

—StanlyDoo- Amazon Reviewer

“5 stars! Amazing read. The story was great- the plot flowed and kept throwing the unexpected at you. Wonderfully established setting in place; great character development, shown very well thru well placed dialogue- which in turn kept the story moving right along! No bog downs or boring parts in this book! Loved the originality that stemmed from ancient mysticism- bringing age old fiction into modern day reality. Recommend for teenage and older- action violence a little intense for preteen years, but overall this is a great action thriller slash mini romance novel.”

—That Lisa Girl, Amazon Reviewer

“I was not expecting a free novel to beat anything that I have ever laid eyes upon. This book was touching and made me want more after each sentence.”

Sears1994, iBook Reviewer

“This book was simply heart wrenching. It was an amazing book with a great plot. I almost cried several times. All of the scenes were so real it felt like I was there witnessing everything.”

—Jeanine Drake, iBook Reveiwer

“This book was absolutely amazing...It had me tearing at parts, cursing at others, and filled with adrenaline rushing along with the characters at the fights. It is a book for everyone, with themes of love, courage, hardship, good versus evil, humane and inhumane...All around, it is an amazing book!”

—Mkb312, iBook Reviewer

“Galdoni is an amazing book; it is the first to actually make me cry! It is a book that really touches your heart, a romance novel that might change the way you look at someone. It did that to me.”

—Coralee2, Reviewer

“Wow. I simply have no words for this. I highly recommend it to anyone who stumbled across this masterpiece. In other words, READ IT!”

—Troublecat101, iBook Reviewer

Keeper of the Wolves

“This is without a doubt the VERY BEST paranormal romance/adventure I have ever read and I’ve been reading these types of books for over 45 years. Excellent plot, wonderful protagonists—even the evil villains were great. I read this in one sitting on a Saturday morning when there were so many other things I should have been doing. I COULD NOT put it down! I also appreciated the author’s research and insights into the behavior of wolf packs. I will CERTAINLY read more by this author and put her on my ‘favorites’ list.”

—N. Darisse

“This is a novel that will emotionally cripple you. Be sure to keep a box of tissues by your side. You will laugh, you will cry, and you will fall in love with Keeper. If you loved
Black Beauty
as a child, then you will truly love
Keeper of the Wolves
as an adult. Put this on your ‘must read’ list.”

—Fortune Ringquist

“Cheree Alsop mastered the mind of a wolf and wrote the most amazing story I’ve read this year. Once I started, I couldn’t stop reading. Personal needs no longer existed. I turned the last page with tears streaming down my face.”

—Rachel Andersen, Amazon Reviewer

“I truly enjoyed this book very much. I’ve spent most of my life reading supernatural books, but this was the first time I’ve read one written in first person and done so well. I must admit that the last half of this book had me in tears from sorrow and pain for the main character and his dilemma as a man and an animal. . . Suffice it to say that this is one book you REALLY need in your library. I won’t ever regret purchasing this book, EVER! It was just that GOOD! I would also recommend you have a big box of tissues handy because you WILL NEED THEM! Get going, get the book...”

—Kathy I, Amazon Reviewer

“I just finished this book. Oh my goodness, did I get emotional in some spots. It was so good. The courage and love portrayed is amazing. I do recommend this book. Thought provoking.”

—Candy, Amazon Reviewer

Thief Prince

“I absolutely loved this book! I could not put it down. . . The Thief Prince will whisk you away into a new world that you will not want to leave! I hope that Ms. Alsop has more about this story to write, because I would love more Kit and Andric! This is one of my favorite books so far this year! Five Stars!”

—Crystal, Book Blogger at Books are Sanity

“. . . Once I started I couldn’t put it down. The story is amazing. The plot is new and the action never stops. The characters are believable and the emotions presented are beautiful and real. If anyone wants a good, clean, fun, romantic read, look no further. I hope there will be more books set in Debria, or better yet, Antor.”

—SH Writer, Amazon Reviewer

“This book was a roller coaster of emotions: tears, laughter, anger, and happiness. I absolutely fell in love with all of the characters placed throughout this story. This author knows how to paint a picture with words.”

—Kathleen Vales

“Awesome book! It was so action packed, I could not put it down, and it left me wanting more! It was very well written, leaving me feeling like I had a connection with the characters.”

—M. A., Amazon Reviewer

“I am a Cheree Alsop junkie and I have to admit, hands down, this is my FAVORITE of anything she has published. In a world separated by race, fear and power are forced to collide in order to save them all. Who better to free them of the prejudice than the loyal heart of a Duskie? Adventure, incredible amounts of imagination, and description go into this world! It is a ‘buy now and don’t leave the couch until the last chapter has reached an end’ kind of read!”

—Malcay, Amazon Reviewer

“I absolutely loved this book! I could not put it down! Anything with a prince and a princess is usually a winner for me, but this book is even better! It has multiple princes and princesses on scene over the course of the book! I was completely drawn into Kit’s world as she was faced with danger and new circumstances...Kit was a strong character, not a weak and simpering girl who couldn’t do anything for herself. The Thief Prince (Andric) was a great character as well! I kept seeing glimpses of who he really was and I loved that the author gave us clues as to what he was like under the surface. The Thief Prince will whisk you away into a new world that you will not want to leave!”

—Bookworm, Book Reviewer

Small Town Superhero Series

“A very human superhero- Cheree Alsop has written a great book for youth and adults alike. Kelson, the superhero, is battling his own demons plus bullies in this action packed narrative. Small Town Superhero had me from the first sentence through the end. I felt every sorrow, every pain and the delight of rushing through the dark on a motorcycle. Descriptions in Small Town Superhero are so well written the reader is immersed in the town and lives of its inhabitants.”

—Rachel Andersen, Book Reviewer

“Anyone who grew up in a small town or around motorcycles will love this! It has great characters and flows well with martial arts fighting and conflicts involved.”

—Karen, Amazon Reviewer

“Fantastic story...and I love motorcycles and heroes who don’t like the limelight. Excellent character development. You’ll like this series!”

—Michael, Amazon Reviewer

“Another great read; couldn’t put it down. Would definitely recommend this book to friends and family. She has put out another great read. Looking forward to reading more!”

—Benton Garrison, Amazon Reviewer

“I enjoyed this book a lot. Good teen reading. Most books I read are adult contemporary; I needed a change and this was a good change. I do recommend reading this book! I will be looking out for more books from this author. Thank you!”

—Cass, Amazon Reviewer

Stolen

“This book will take your heart, make it a little bit bigger, and then fill it with love. I would recommend this book to anyone from 10-100. To put this book in words is like trying to describe love. I had just gotten it and I finished it the next day because I couldn’t put it down. If you like action, thrilling fights, and/or romance, then this is the perfect book for you.”

—Steven L. Jagerhorn

“Couldn’t put this one down! Love Cheree’s ability to create totally relatable characters and a story told so fluidly you actually believe it’s real.”

—Sue McMillin, Amazon Reviewer

“I enjoyed this book it was exciting and kept you interested. The characters were believable. And the teen romance was cute.”

—Book Haven- Amazon Reviewer

“This book written by Cheree Alsop was written very well. It is set in the future and what it would be like for government control. The drama was great and the story was very well put together. If you want something different, then this is the book to get and it is a page turner for sure. You will love the main characters as well, and the events that unfold during the story. It will leave you hanging and wanting more.”

—Kathy Hallettsville, TX- Amazon Reviewer

“I really liked this book . . . I was pleasantly surprised to discover this well-written book. . .I'm looking forward to reading more from this author.”

—Julie M. Peterson- Amazon Reviewer

“Great book! I enjoyed this book very much it keeps you wanting to know more! I couldn't put it down! Great read!”
