Flash Virus Episode One edition by Steve Vernon Keith Draws Children eBooks

If you have never read any of Steve Vernon‘s work, what can I say? Steve writes with such abandon that it is a rollercoaster ride experience when reading his books, blog posts, anything. His imagination takes the reader to places most wouldn’t even think to put on paper. :) Mostly in a good way.

In the first episode of Flash Virus, a school is visited by strange … people? … who gift all the students with cell phones. The cell phones seem to cast some kind of spell over anyone answering the ringtone “here comes Santa Claus”, and it just gets more bizarre from there. There is an attempt at takeover, the expected teenage rebellion, and more. To be honest, I didn’t want to stop reading till the end, and the end came too soon!

Flash Virus: Episode One is amusing, strange, entertaining, and keeps the reader interested. The problem – when you want to keep reading – is this is only the beginning, but Steve Vernon has made following episodes available at very low prices on Amazon.

Flash Virus: Episode One is a good, safe, book for middle-grade readers and up. And Please forgive my overuse of the word ‘strange’, I meant it in a good way. ;)

Steve Vernon loves to write and share his work. You can find Flash Virus episodes on Amazon at very low prices, starting with FREE for episode one.

Flash Virus Episode One edition by Steve Vernon Keith Draws Children eBooks Reviews

I was pleased to get the opportunity to read this before it was made available to the general public. Steve Vernon is a talented writer, with a quirky and dark sense of humour and a great way with words, so I didn't care that much if this was a young adult novel when I normally prefer adult fiction. I had a feeling I was going to enjoy this, however, because of its dystopian/apocalypse spin. I was pulled in from page one when Billy Carver's butt started ringing.

I was struck immediately by how well he captured the thought patterns of a teenage boy - the first person protagonist one with a very odd name, Briar Gamble. His thoughts are sporadic and all over the place, a reflection of a short attention span and an inclination to following impulse. That and Steve provides us with little glimpses of strange things that had happened and that would happen in the story to come - a bit of a tease.

The story opens with tainted cell phones, ones that can be used to subjugate a person's will, handed out by the Black Masks. The popular kids are targeted, and pick up, first, the sheep follow suit, but the free thinkers recognize a bad thing when they see it and discard their phones, rebelling. From there, the story follows Briar and his other classmates who haven't been "possessed", in the face of Captain Albino (aka Mr. Millett) and the Black Masks, their fishbowl sunglasses, and their oddly translated phrases.

The story was fast paced and intriguing, with a goodly amount of humour and action. It does drift a little too much into "silly" for my tastes at times, but the characters are interesting and diverse, and I think the story would have a lot of appeal for the average reader of young adult fare. I enjoyed it, which says a lot considering it would not be my typical reading selection.

Of course, being the first episode in a serial, the story doesn't end with this episode. In all, this episode includes seven chapters, enough to get you into the story proper and a fun read.
Interesting concept..worth the read. different perspectives on a scifi classic invasion..don't want to give it away. Check it out see
I enjoyed Flash Virus Episode One very much now will have to read his Flash Virus Omnibus edition to read the rest of the story.
Steve Vernon is a good writer , Just like Farley Mowat was with his story about The Dog Who Wouldn't Be !
I DON't normally read young adult stuff but my neighbor highly recommended this book and I'm glad she did. It is wonderful and the best part about it is it is a series . . . it brought back my high school years and I felt really good reading it. I don't do spoilers so you will just have to read it and thank me later )
O.K. First off, Mr. Vernon is funny. He keeps me amused with his remarks. No, I don't bust a gut laughing, but I've caught myself with a couple of dirt eating grins on my face! Best of all though is the fact that Mr. Vernon can write. He comes up with some great yarns. I hate stories that are in a series form...But I'm going to make an exception, because I liked this goofy story. Yep, I'd recommend this story.
The story was entertaining but not enough for me to buy the next episode. The writing reminded me of something written for a high school class assignment. The author made many references to grade primary rather than primary grade which I found jarring and awkward. There were homonym problems too. It's principal of the school and the principle of the matter. I'm a hard core SF reader and enjoy YA books. That wasn't the problem.
