A very moving and thought-provoking read. The author really draws attention to the current ecological problems that the world is suffering, and weaves a fascinating story.

NEW REVIEW FOR ROOMS!

Below is a new review of my science fiction novel, ROOMS, that was just posted on Goodreads and Amazon.

4 Stars
Rooms by Bob Stegner is a book I won from Goodreads. Thanks so much. It has a very interesting plot line and interesting characters that are well developed. The first part starts a bit slow but it does pick up and get better. I love the concept completely. It seems to be a teen novel and lacks some depth I like but it still is a great sci-fi book.

The book after Rooms in the "Rooms' Series" is titled The Chosen.

THE CHOSEN: Third Draft Completed & Work On The Book Cover Has Begun

Cover Art By Greg Opalinski

I competed the third draft of my new adult science fiction novel, The Chosen, today. It looks like it won't be published until early in March because I need to edit it one more time.

Also, Greg Opalinski still has some work to do on the cover; it will be different than what you see above, and I'll be excited to see it when he's finished. I know Greg will do a wonderful job, as usual!

I'm very, very happy with the novel, and I feel it's my best work to date. It will be published, as my other works have, on Amazon.com and on other Amazon sites around the globe.

It's also the longest book that I've written. Rooms was about 82,000 words, and The Chosen will be almost 88,000.

I've also updated the excerpt of the first two chapters from the book. You can take a look by clicking on the Bob's Books' tab at the top of this blog page or by clicking on the link below.

I just finished chapter 8 of THE CHOSEN yesterday and have a start on chapter 9. I'm now into the meat of the story, and it's flowing well.
