Michael Anderle (ok, weird talking about myself in the 3rd person) (1967-Hopefully a long time from NOW) was born in Houston, Tx. A very curious child, he got into trouble - a lot. What to do with an inquisitive mind when he was grounded? Read!

Ok, done with all of that 3rd person stuff.

In the first 20 years, I mostly read Science Fiction and Fantasy. In the last 10 years I have enjoyed Urban Fantasy and Military Fiction. With this background, I've been blessed with creating The Kurtherian Gambit series, a well-selling, and fan loved, collection of stories.

The fans have propelled these stories beyond my wildest imagination and they should get all of the credit for sharing with friends, family and occasionally the random person on the street. They are fantastic!

I'm not sure leaving reviews is even necessary at this point, only because I know if someone's gotten this far they most definitely will continue on their own. But, another excellent story; and of course, surprising cliffhanger. Great job.

I know I am repeating myself but these books still keep getting better and better. I am in love with these books. The stories are sharp, the writing is amazing and the characters are a dream come true. I think these are the best books I have read in a long, long time and that's saying something, since I read about 500 books a year. Each one comes up with better "toys" and the stories, even though they are a series, are as fresh as if they were just the first book. When you are reading a series, for me at least, it becomes harder to get into them after the third or fourth book. But, these are just as exciting and new as the first one. I'm getting ready to read the seventh book and I can't wait to get lost in it. You will not go wrong in reading these. Great job, author. You have my heartfelt thanks for taking the time and effort to write them.

4.0 out of 5 stars Feel-good adventure series with every sci fi / fantasy trope you could want.
Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2018

Okay, so a lot of thoughts! I've recently binge-read books 1-6, alternating between print and audible.

PROS: I am a woman of simple tastes. For me to like something, it generally has to have swords, guns, or spaceships. This series has all of those things in abundance, so I'm pretty gosh darn happy. It has pretty much everything, in fact. Vampires to spacecraft. Hacking to the... you know - the more traditional kind of hacking. Anderle obviously works really hard to provide us with a ridiculously constant flow of entertaining adventure books with a fun cast of characters who pull death defying stunts in an array of picturesque places. I really appreciate we have vamps 'n werewolves without the cast having sex every 5 minutes. I'm no prude, but I'm in this for the dashing adventure, not the dashing romance. So, cheers. These books are fun, fun, fun.

CONS: Okay. So this is a sci-fi / fantasy series. You can only get so nitpick-y with a book with werewolves in it. Here are my major gripes. Enough to take it down a star, because I'm a big jerk.

The weirdest thing to me is that the book synopses read like a 'hero's journey'. Bethany Anne definitely doesn't have one. She *always* wins. She comes out of every conflict with a profanity-ridden one-liner, and usually wearing really good shoes. Even James Bond gets beaten up, once in a while. These books are super feel-good, at least so far. (Minor Spoilers!) The worst thing that really happens to the protagonists in books 1-6 is a couple total red-shirt deaths (the characters have less than 10 pages of action before their untimely demises). I mean, 2018 is kind of lousy, and it's kind of refreshing to never have any real stress as a reader, because Bethany Anne is super OP - and she's guaranteed to teleport in to save the day every time. Perhaps this is a very slow arc leading to a serious climax or conflict in a later book. I'm definitely not asking for Game of Thrones, but I hope he someday decides to kill off a character we're attached to. It would add a lot.

The second gripe that I have is that I really wish Mr. Anderle would get some ex-military people in his test reader crowd. There are ton of goofy misunderstandings of how the military works, slang, rank, bases. I get he spits these books out insanely quickly and they're total fantasy, but he's obviously doing some research into other areas like IT. He'll go into a page of minutiae about blade servers and Cisco contracts, but he assumes stuff like enlisted people serving at one base and for one general their entire careers, and that people can and will easily exit before their enlistments are through to join an adventure. I totally volunteer as tribute if he needs somebody. Anyway, if you've served in the US gov or mil, you're really going to cringe every other chapter or so. First season Stargate SG-1 level.

Another good book in the series. It’s really enjoyed reading this one. Tons of action, no drama and lots of funny and heartfelt moments. A lot of the things Bethany Anne was setting up in the previous 2 books came together in this one and there were several interesting plot twists that made things even more interesting. Michael plays a bigger role in this book and I really enjoy the dynamic between him and Bethany Anne. Finally, there’s someone who can be close to an equal to her in strength and leadership level. There was a big plot twist at the end that excites me to rush to read the next book. This is such a wonderful series so far and I’m so glad I discovered it.

I’m ashamed to say that this is the first of this series I’ve weighed in on. Not ashamed to say it’s fabulous. I struggle at times to keep all the characters straight in my head but think that’s more of a problem for me in particular than anything about the books. Anyway…. Lots of fun, creative cussing and end result being evil comes in all colors, cultures and countries as does good.

Okay, I’ve read six books now, so I can speak to the elephant in the room: cheap cliff hanger endings. The story plot line is great and the follow through within each additional volume both ends an arc and furthers the complexity and continuity of said storyline. It is because of that that I can’t accept that the only way to end each and every book is a cliff - a just stop dead in the water - end. Obviously the author has enough skill to maintain interest, then why not end properly? Or alternatively, tell people up front, that this is a serial that comprises at least twenty one episodes? As a reader, I feel betrayed. My rating is for the feeling of being used…….not the actual volume which, as noted, also just ends.

Honestly, all books in this series are terrific and a good read. Bethany Ann is one of the most likable, snarky, intelligent, over-the-top and all around "fun" protagonist you could ever hope for. She is a total butt kicker. The action is pretty much nonstop throughout and each book adds depth and progression to the overall story. Whilst it is somewhat predictable, that's not a bad thing - it gets a bit hairy in places but goes exactly as you hope it will. What really helps is the supporting characters who are hilariously sassy in their own rights with their own stories and foibles.
