  • The Emerald River

    J.R. Rain

    language (Rain Press, Sept. 12, 2011)
    TWO TEENAGERS...TRAPPED ON AN UNDERGROUND RIVER.The thrilling young adult adventure novel by #1 bestselling author, J.R. Rain.Kent Barnum and Patrick Hall, both fifteen years old, are busy excavating a tree trunk on Kent's rural Oregon farm when the unspeakable happens.Now trapped in a raging underground river, the two boys will fight for their lives―all while Kent's father mounts a desperate search expedition. But what secrets will the underground river give up? And can the two boys survive long enough to discover them?An epic fantasy adventure for fans of Rick Riordan, Rick Yancey, James Dashner and Neil Gaiman.★★★★★ "Imaginative tale of subterranean survival. When Kent and his friend Pat become trapped on an underground river, they must face their fears and use their wits to survive in this beautiful but dangerous subterranean world. There are also chapters devoted to Kent's father as he tries to rescue them while confronting his own inner demons. The characters come alive with detailed backstories rarely seen by an author so young. Written for the most part with a maturity beyond his years, and with a whimsical twist at the end that probably wouldn't have worked for an adult author, but in the hands of a sixteen-year-old, seems just right." ―Amazon reviewer★★★★★ "My boys have really enjoyed the book, it has been hard to put down. There are adventure and suspense. It is a quick read." ―Amazon reviewer★★★★★ "Is the Emerald River an allegory for dealing with depression? It certainly seems so. In the sense that Kent is all alone in the cold dark world, with only Pat for company, while his father deals with his depression. The journey back to each other is pretty heavy for both father and son. A 16-year-old wrote this?" ―Amazon reviewer★★★★★ "I truly enjoyed "The Emerald River: A Novel". I enjoy young adult fiction-especially YA fiction that is a quality read. I appreciated how the Lord was mentioned as the source of a young man's strength and how a parent's love can supersede that same parent's issues." ―Amazon reviewer

Dolfin Tayle is a story of the saving of our world by a combination of sea creatures, needy aliens, and dedicated scientists. The underlying theme of saving our beloved dolphins, whales, our reefs. and other endangered marine creatures from greedy destruction is well integrated into the story's final resolution. An adorably enchanting read." ―Amazon reviewer★★★★★ "I love any story that centers around dolphins! The fact that it was also sci-fi, made it more enticing. I was not disappointed. Dolphins being able to communicate with humans and assisting them to save planet Earth was right up my alley. The story was simple to follow along and kept me riveted. I recommend this book to any sci-fi buff or animal enthusiasts." ―Amazon reviewer★★★★★ "This futuristic adventure tale is sure to capture the hearts of all readers. The story has the right balance of action, intrigue, compassion and humor to appeal to just about anyone." ―Amazon reviewer★★★★★ "Anything with Piers Anthony has my vote! This was a realistic tale (considering dolphins and their intelligence). I love the sci-fi slant with the aliens living under the sea and the sea creatures coordinating efforts. GREAT read!" ―Amazon reviewer★★★★★ "Loved it―J.R. Rain is one of my all time fave authors! I'm hoping there is a sequel to this one!!" ―Amazon reviewer

I've been a Piers Anthony fan since 1984, with his multitude of fantasy and sci-fi series. I've read just about everything he has written, and J R Rain with his "Vampire for Hire" series has held my interest ever since I read "Moon Dance" ("Vampire for Hire #1") In this book, titled "Aladdin Relighted " these two authors have come together and created a story that kept me entertained throughout the entire book. I look forward to reading the next book in this trilogy!" ―Amazon reviewer★★★★★ "A new take on my beloved Aladdin story.

Be ready for a delightful book full of action, drama with the perfect amount of humor." ―Amazon reviewer★★★★★ "Easy to follow plot with a pretty fast pace. The snarky banter between Niddala and Jewel is funny and the growing sexual tension is hilarious. Jewel is a woman who certainly knows how to use her assets to her advantage, and the results kept me in stitches." ―Amazon reviewer★★★★★ "OMGoodness! I LOVED this little gem. It was so true to the movies that it was so refreshing to read!!!! Good going, and what a break from the norm. I will be reading more along this series!!!!!" ―Amazon reviewer★★★★★ "Great magical tale written with just the right amount of humor to go with lots of scary plot twists and turns that will keep the reader turning page after page. I especially liked the mixture of light-hearted modern and old-world prose, it kept the story from bogging down. I read the book in one setting! And I'm certainly looking forward to the next adventure." ―Amazon reviewer
