The Dragon rubs his empty belly and considers his well stocked book shelf. No he is not desperate…but some of the titles look very tasty. The Curse of the Salute a thriller by Anastacia Moore has fallen near the cook pot. Should he read it or eat it?
A loud growl from his belly indicates his interest.
Let’s digest the story a little. The Salute is a small fishing boat owned by a man named Charles Frank and his son Dick. They hire a friend of the old man’s named Pete during tuna season…and the scary begins. The characters are very real and the descriptions of the fishing are amazing. Although the Dragon is a fire dragon…
What’s on the menu…
Tuna has many possibilities!!
The story takes us down a path of evil that threatens to take everything from Dick including his sanity.
—Cooking Pros and Cons—-
Pros–
- the descriptions of the vessel and the fishing are amazing.
- the language is simple and totally in keeping with the story, the prose is readable
- the characters are well developed
- the relationship between the father and son is nicely detailed
- the tension builds well
- the plot keeps the reader’s interest throughout
Cons—
- there are no dragons in the story…
- there is ocean everywhere
The Dragon says save this book for reading. Although a tasty treat, it will be much better consumed by the mind. This is an entertaining novel. Buy it! !!!!ROAR!!!! It can be found at amazon and wherever fine seafood books are sold.
You can find Anastacia underwater in all of the usual aquariums – facebook, twitter, LinkedIn, and blog.
Hey There! Just wanted to send this to you before I forgot. In Chapter 9 when you have the knight sitting on Peek A Boo and watching the wizard, you have him holding the “reins” tightly. You misspelled reins. I think you put the one were a king rules a kingdom. It needs to be reins. So far that is all I have noticed. The story is amazing. I am having trouble finding time to read so it is taking me longer than expected. Great job so far. Happy Trails To You! Kandy
