this really deserves it's award, the writing was very well done and I enjoyed the characters and the plot itself. Overall I really enjoyed reading this book and hope there is more from the author.

I unfortunately did not finish this book. I just really couldn't get into it. There was just something about it that didn't click with me. Maybe I just couldn't suspend my disbelief long enough to enjoy it

I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. Thank you NetGalley.
This is the second book in the series, and unofrtunately i didn't read the first.
My opinion may not be the rest based on that.
I did read it, and it was an interesting read without knowing the original book.

I didn't really care for this book, the description made it sound great but I just couldn't get into it.

Cryptic is the second in the series but it can be read as a standalone. This is a fantastic book and a must read. I will go back and read the first book.

A really enjoyable read that kept my interest throughout. This is a follow on from a previous book which I hadn't read but it still read well as a stand alone novel. I would recommend this if you like a bit of supernatural fun.

I love love live this book perfect read and very well written. This author has a great writing ability and will definitely go on my favorites author list. Would love more titles from this author. The cover of the book is awesome and I will buy fir my shelf.

David and Julie decide to visit a Hopi reservation. Julie likes to add to her collection of kachina figures. While Julie is looking at the rugs while David crosses the road to a man who gives David a corner of a stone tablet in exchange for a drink of water. Why? David has been losing his healing abilities and telekinesis. He goes to see the doctor who save David’s life by giving him a new drug called Neurogen which gave him his abilities. The doctor is working on a new form of Neurogen that won’t give “abilities.” A female vampire, the Fisherman, vampires and werewolves are chasing David. Why? The vampires and werewolves is led by Hellann, the serial killer who wants David. As David and Julie look for a safe place to get away from Hellann, David is introduced to Bradley. Bradley becomes his mentor teaching him to see with his third eye and astral traveling. Bradley is an Hopi Native American who has been traveling to other Native American reservations to learn how to fight Hellann and her group. Will Bradley and David succeed in getting rid of Hellann and her followers?

The novel is a horror story mixed with Hopi Native American culture. It makes for a fascinating story. For those who didn’t know about the first book (I didn’t) this is a second book. I don’t know if it will be a third volume. I found both David and Bradley fascinating characters. There is gore in the novel. It is written excellently.

I did not realize this was a series so I started with this one. I feel that although I did not read the first book I was able to step right in. This was a very gripping horror story with believable characters that are most especially like able because they are everyday normal people that are drawn into the supernatural world. This one is a fast ride it holds yours attention and although it is a horror story it has bits of humor mixed in. I really enjoyed it. I received this book from NetGalley for an honest review. I really found th Native American lore fascinating and a great addition to the story.

A fantasy thriller, full of vampires and werewolves. Oh, but we also have the good side, Daniel can power a trash man and his friend Bradley has all the Native American powers behind him. Togerher they must fight the bad side before they overtake the good. Because the bad side can rejuvenate. And create more bad guys.
Years ago a new drug was developed. Neurogen. It was to be used during war for soldiers with fatal head injuries. The drug helped rejuvenate their brains. However, something went terribly wrong. This drug was the start of their problems. Maybe it can help end them
Well written, interesting, not your typical vampire, werewolf story. It's better!!

I didn't realize this was a sequel within a series, so I thought I had to read the first in the series to fill in some story holes before I read this. After reading the first story and knowing the events that took place then, Cryptic is very much a standalone with a series and due to the author's style of writing, he has made it so you honestly don't need to have read the first to understand this new installment, although for your curiosity and more backstory to the main characters and what they do, it would help.
Cryptic is a great horror story that falls on Native American, Hopi lore to deliver thrills and chills like no body's business.
It is short and to the point. Delivering to you a story that is meant to not only frighten you, but capture your attention and interest.
