Captain Riley: The Captain Riley Adventures, Book I
Fernando Gamboa, Translated by Alex Woodend ( Seattle: Amazon Crossing, 2016)
I enjoyed the adventure of Captain Riley and his entertaining crew. Although predictable at times, there are many twists and surprises that kept me turning the pages late into the night. Riley's "crew" is comprised of humorous, interesting, and empathetic characters; though the dialogue is somewhat loose at times(perhaps due to translation). As a great fan of WWII fiction and the mystery/adventure genres, I quickly became engrossed in the suspense of this thriller with a non-traditional WWII setting. I will recommend this book and look forward to Riley's next adventure.
