BOOK REVIEWS
“A fantastic book! The world building was perfection and the premise was unique and imaginative. The dragons were believable and the human-like take on them was a brilliant element. With lots of intense moments and action, DRAGON’S DEN is a fast-paced, compelling sci-fi/fantasy novel. Raza is a sympathetic and admirable character that you’ll want to spend lots of time with. Check it out. You won’t be sorry.” ~ reviewed by T.P. Warren for Author Promo Pal [FIVE STARS]
“Sci-Fi/Fantasy is not my favorite genre, but I decided to give this a try and I’m glad I did. I was hooked from the beginning of this page-turning read. The characters and setting were fantastic. I loved the dragon world the author created. Overall a fabulous novel.” ~ reviewed by Book Lover at Amazon Reviews [FIVE STARS]
“DRAGON’S DEN is a fast-paced, pure sci-fi read set in a unique space-age society. The main character is Raza, a human warrior known as a dragon incarnate. He is dangerous, broody, and sexy as can be! A short novel with lot of punch, DRAGON’S DEN is the kind of book you want to read all at once!” ~ reviewed by Harmony Byars for Neon Book Reviews [FIVE STARS]
“DRAGON’S DEN easily exceeded my expectations and hit its stride from start to finish. I was enveloped in this science fiction setting and was fascinated by the humanoid dragons and the society they have built for mankind. There is plenty of intrigue, violence, and romance; something for everyone. To say I would recommend DRAGON’S DEN is an understatement and now I want to read more in the universe Terri Branson created.” ~ reviewed by Ryan Gaines for Neon Book Reviews [FIVE STARS]
“Karazamon ‘Raza’ Toa Kalandyn was a 153-year-old dragon. He was 6’6″ tall with black hair, gray eyes and half-inch long very prominent fangs. Raza was the Master of Martial Arts at the Talakara Temple. He was also a member of the Sooran Guard, the elite warrior class of the temples. As such, he prepared to help his father’s investigation into unauthorized shipments of the mineral with a secret formula: M-3. Mistress Tirakareez Toa Lodicann, Kareez, was a 24-year-old dragon with light brown hair, sapphire eyes, and delicate white fangs. Her name means Little Fire Dragon and her training in martial arts has resulted in a lethal telepath that is true to her name. Kareez also traveled with Raza’s father to the temple to quietly assist with the investigation. Raza does not know his own talents. With his crystal knife, he is the solution to the source of the shipments. Kareez has detected the sorcery and between them, they are a formidable force, that is, if pheromones can stay out of the way. In DRAGON’S DEN, Terri Branson has brought us a dragon world for the science fiction aficionado. Her characters are in bright colors right before your eyes, and her world is so real you need a coat to cut the snowy cold. I am excited to see that more dragons are in the publishing future, because this story is out-of-this-world wonderful. It is hard to wait on pins and needles for the next exciting adventure. These dragons are truly a keeper.” ~ reviewed by Brenda McCoy for CoffeeTime Romance [FIVE STARS]
“DRAGON’S DEN is a well-written science fiction novel with vivid and intriguing characters tangled up in fascinating plot twists. I felt like I was there in this fictional world, experiencing it through the eyes and thoughts and emotions of the main character, Raza.

You can also read DRAGON’S DEN inside the award-winning anthology COSMIC SCULPTURE, which is a real bargain because you get one novel plus over a dozen SF/fantasy short stories with it.” ~ reviewed by Amber Sparks for Roserock Reviews [FIVE STARS]
