On the Winds of Quasars is one of the best and most well crafted science fiction books I have ever read. Bruno's world of Kamaria is immersive and magnificent. With an amazing landscapes, interesting aliens, and loveable characters, Bruno's Song of Kamaria will be a winner for any sci-fi fan. I loved the stunning internal designs by Jason Michael Hall.

I am a huge fan of the first book in the series, which led to plenty of anticipation towards book two. Although there was some completeness, the writer had lain a groundwork to let his imagination go in any direction he wanted for book two. I guess that’s probably how it always is when creating a novel, but the foundation was as solid as it could be, and I felt bigger things on the horizon.

T.A. Bruno must be a natural storyteller and I am glad his writing is full of all the scifi elements which my imagination craves, as he could probably write a romance, or courtroom thriller that would of course, be great, but I’d probably never come close to reading it.

I know, I can be so close minded for someone who reads about things weird, conceptually dangerous, and a faith in a technical age beyond imagining, yet fun, future I just might live to see. My heavily veiled and camouflaged point is that T.A. makes the scifi fit the story…no, wait, he makes the story fit the scifi….urg.

Let’s move past my ranting for now. I love this series, and hope you get the chance to read it as well. In fact, if you have kindle, OTWOQ is free right now!

After completing ITOOS* I found myself, many times, going back to Kamaria. Not only had the characters grown on me, but the images I had of the planet, cities, events were an easy place for me to think about.

This scifi series follows the human colony efforts and expansion, resulting from humanitys narrow escape from this, our home solar system. Once the 300 year voyage from a lost system arrives at a new, strange, and oh, by the way, already populated by equally intelligent, bipedal, and wing endowed, birdlike humanoids. The real story of this series begins, as the humans build relationships, homes, and families on this alien world.

The audiobook for this (book 1) is very highly recommended!!

Not only does the story take unexpected turns, including a few ne-, okay, a lot of new characters, leading to previously unknown locations, exciting connections, i.e. Easter eggs from the 1st book(could there have been book three Easter eggs in there as well?), and a highly imaginitive story arc, but the focus on the family, was the cinnamon sugar on my churro. The family bonds really kept me feeling like I was getting more from the book than just the satisfaction of my imagination craving. I can say that this book was written with some heart. I needed some heart with my scifi, and didn’t even realize it.

Get this book if you’ve already read the first, if you haven’t, no prob, there’s even an awesome “story up til now” to catch you up. Let’s get ready for the next go round!

T.A. BRUNO: WELL DONE!!
