Book Review
The Emerald Tablet by Joshua Silverman takes readers on a thrilling ride into a world of ancient times, shrouded in mystery and deception. A place where things and people are not always as they appear.
The author does a remarkable job developing his numerous characters as readers are taken inside their minds and allowed to discover their strengths, weaknesses, and true selves. The main character is a 13-year-old boy named Leoros, who longs to be just like the heroes from his comic books. Leoros's life is intertwined with Altantia, a teenage girl from the far away planet of Potara. Potara possesses mystical powers that are growing stronger. Together they undertake a seemingly impossible quest and face their destiny.
Greek and Egyptian Mythology also play a key role in the story and it is evident that the author is very knowledgeable on the matter thus, allowing the story to freely unfold.
The Emerald Tablet will appeal to sci-fi, fantasy, and mythology fans alike and they will not be disappointed. I recommend picking up a copy. Available at Amazon.

About the Author via Amazon
Josh Silverman was born in Washington, DC. His family moved to Orange County, California when he was four years old and he was raised there. He grew up watching Star Trek, Star Wars, and other science fiction series with his family when he was young. Star Trek; The Next Generation was a ritual in his house. In his spare time, he collected a respectable collection of comic books and Magic: The Gathering cards. When he's not writing (or working in his day job to be able to write at night), he spends his time thinking about how to avoid traffic, what he's going to have for dinner, watching cheesy apocalyptic or King Fu movies, working out or reading.
