Schiffers' Publishing Book Review Critic Compares Time Shift The Paradigm to Stephen Kings' Langoliers!
Time Shift Compared to Stephen Kings Langoliers!
"Robbie Thomas Book Is Epic!"
" Robbie Thomas' book "Time Shift The Paradigm" is an astounding roller-coaster ride through an exciting world that I walk away feeling personally invested in. Robbie takes a very cerebral approach to writing that informs with legitimate fact and current research while keeping the action extremely exciting pulling you more into the world he writes about. Time Shift, is written in a way that you become immersed in the story. You understand the motives and thoughts of the characters, you start to care and worry about them. It becomes so easy to relate to with the inclusion of fact and current theories that you can visualize yourself involved with the story. But just when you start to understand what's happening... *WHAM!*... there's another curve ball that takes you down another exciting path full of science, twists, turns, reality and surreal moments of unexplained phenomena and so much more!
This is a book that is extremely hard to put down! Part of me knows it's fiction, but then again, frequently you're left thinking about the possibility of....I just can't give it away! You must read this to understand. When one chapter ends you drive to know what happens next. Robbies' writing brings surreal phenomena to a level that makes you think it could be an extreme possibility in reality. I'm thoroughly excited to review this book for Robbie Thomas and I eagerly anticipate more great writings!"
Side Note:
All that aside, I've one specific scene that's still haunting me from last night. The part between Zebra Station and the #2 Pod I believe...That writing's so exciting I'm heavily reminded of The Airport Scene in Stephen Kings The Langoliers. The reason I make that comparison, it's absolutely one of my favorite books and it was represented well in movie form. I make this coloration because it's EXTREMELY Easy to see this book in movie form and I'd be extremely excited to hear that as a possibility too!

A Query For Authors!
I've had the opportunity to have a converstaion with several Authors on this topic and it's suprising what is going on.
Kindle downloads of hard working Authors, who put so much time creating, inventing and publishing great bodies of literature, are actually on loan through their return policy. Let’s face it, Kindle allows the reader an opportunity to read at times, 10%-20% of a book before purchasing that work. Talk about taking it out for a “test run!” On top of this, they (the reader) have a return policy of seven (7) days to take advantage of and can turn around after reading the remaining portion of the book, returning it for a full refund. Oh yes, there’s many who do this and are habitual repeat offenders of this use and abuse policy. Is this fair to the Author? The Author chooses to allow a percentage of his/her work to be viewed, which again, at times is a huge portion of the book to begin with. Now, the test run of a preview and again, sometimes it varies on the size of the book, it seems fitting that if, a reader takes the time to explore the work, like what they’ve read, then purchases it…the deal is done! You would think it should be a final sale? Would you agree? Another factor to take into consideration is, these downloads aren’t breaking anyone’s wallet, as most are just a few dollars at best. Do you feel Kindle should remove their return policy after given all the factors going into a purchase as said above, or do you feel what they have, is a proper way of doing business?
