I really liked this e-novella which I devoured in a couple of hours. At 88 pages it's a quick and compelling read. The price is a bargain too.

Readers who enjoy paranormal romance, urban fantasy, sci-fi romance may go for this - even if you don't go normally for these genres you might still like this for the darkly romantic aspect of it. Not a fluffy, happy bunny read by any means but it has

I also enjoyed this novella. I wish she would have expanded it to a full length novel. Some of her world building could have used expanding on.

Nods. I didn't quite understand some of the world building but I was so compelled and interested that this didn't keep me from enjoying the novella.

Uh, I see this got a very good review over at dearauthor:

http://dearauthor.com/book-reviews/overall-b-reviews/b-plus-reviews/review-ghost-in-the-machine-by-barbara-j-hancock

Seems the reviewer didn't quite understand some of the "how" either - makes me feel less dumb, hee.

Yeah I had a few head scratches while reading this. I also enjoyed it despite my mild confusion.

I enjoyed it as well. The author includes some compelling images....squeee, squeee, squeee (you'll have to read it so see what this refers to!)

Someone to look out for in the future.
