The author creates characters with depth. You want to see them succeed. This is something I always look for from a writer.
This is one of my all time favorite series. Dirk and Sally are dolphins and through some amazing scientific breakthrough, the protagonist, Alison Shaw is able to communicate with them. From there the story takes off and it is one heck of ride. The fifth in the series, Mosiac is coming soon, so this is a great time to start the series!
Here’s a series that will open your mind to new possibilities. It’ll make you think about things in a different way, perhaps. It did that for me and I really enjoyed the experience. The characters are so likeable and interesting that you’ll be propelled through all four books as you want to know what they’re going to do and what they’ll discover …
This novel contains every element I consider necessary for a really good book — every single one! Among others, a unique and intriguing story to tell; dramatic, intense and very suspenseful; and, especially, well developed and very likeable lead characters — if I don’t like the main characters, I usually don’t enjoy the book!
I could not read …
This is the first book in a stunningly brilliant series. As a BOOKBUB freebie this provides BUZZ members a wonderful opportunity. My son and MRS DOG ( Mila) have both informed me that I have abused my relationship with BOOKBUB by taking advantage of you by overloading my iPad and stuffing it with goodies and then deluging everyone with long boring …
Great concept of what COULD BE! Get the whole series! I’m SO ready for the next one to
be released!! This goes from Marine Biology to a little Sci Fi, to lots of espionage and mystery, with a love interest between the two main characters! All very well written and clean, so your book loving tween all the way to your Grandparents can enjoy it! I …
I was skeptical about a book based on dolphins. So glad i gave it a chance, i couldn’t put it down! I’ve already read the 2nd book,it was just as good as the 1st!
Kept me turning pages.
What an amazing story. This author takes your mind to a place where you will find answers to many questions which you have asked, but at the same time creates an unpredictable, yet realistic scenario that will keep you turning the pages to find out what happens next. Although this book is the first in a series, it also provides the reader with a …
Love this series!
The first in a very entertaining series that has action, intrigue, sci-fi, marine biology and archeology. Whew! A startling discovery on the ocean floor in the Caribbean leads the military to seek the assistance of a marine biologist and her team to assist in getting some answers using the very unique Dolphins they are working with. A great cast …
Goosebump-worthy, though not in the scary sense. I’ve never wished so desperately that a book could be true. If you’ve ever wondered what goes on in the mind of animals – wished you could communicate with them – you will love this entire series.
This was the beginning of my love for Michael Grumley. This is the first book in a series you, if an animal lover or a touch of science fiction, will love. Anxiously awaiting the next book in this series now.
Once you read Breakthrough the first of 4 books you will want to read all of them. Michael creates characters that you want to find out more about them. I love dolphins and they learn to talk to them but there are many more adventures along the way. I loved these books and wish there were more. Keep writing Michael.
This book and the whole series is so different from other books. Includes some real history to make the story line even more realistic as well as futuristic.
An original new voice in the world of sci-fi, Michael Grumley has created a series that intrigues and satisfies.
This book has the action and military expertise of Tom Clancy but at a faster pace with an intriguing premise. There are several books in this series, all are very good and carry on a science-fiction plot with interesting characters.
I really liked this one and had a hard time putting it down until I was done. It has a little bit of everything-romance, science, aliens (or are they?), thrills…all woven together to make a great book. The characters draw you in, the story hooks you more.
Good characters, novel moves along quickly, hoped for a romantic ending
I was astonished and very pleased to read this book. The story is VERY good and definitely movie material, provided the producers are willing to follow the story closely. The main characters (and there are quite a few) are believable, very interesting, and endearing. The plot is straight forward and easy to follow. The action is almost constantly …
