Readers Speak!

“This ambitious novel plays unashamedly in the pulp-SF sandbox. . . A conspiracy mavens dream, packed with gory alien-vampire action.” ~ KIRKUS REVIEWS

“An action packed no holds barred adventure with cinematic flair. Great for fans of Jeff Vandermeer’s Annhilation, L. Ron Hubbard’s Battlefield Earth, and John Ringo’s A Hymn Before Battle.” ~ Booklife Reviews

“Forget what you know about vampires and prepare to get a new bite from the tastefully different rules in The Rose Vol. 1. Bringing a new twist to a well-known genre is usually a risk, but PD Alleva has found a brilliant way to make it work. The Rose Vol. 1 is a fantastic recommendation for fans of vampire, fast-paced action, heart-racing, and dark-themed novels.” ~ Readers Favorite

From Amazon customers:

“In a dystopian world, aliens have taken over the planet and humans are imprisoned and kept in a zombie-like state. Only the last few free humans remain on the run, trying desperately to escape the invasion. Sandy and Phil are two of these last surviving rebels and Sandy is pregnant.
But the aliens are closing in…
And did I mention that they are blood-sucking vampires with a diabolical plot for the unborn child? Eek!
PD Alleva has masterfully woven these two classic genres together in a wonderfully original and well-planned tale. there are different types of aliens, some with psychic powers. There are well-constructed battles and action aplenty as good guys are captured and begin a desperate fight for Sandy’s baby and their freedom. Did I mention spaceships? I love them.
I would have liked a glossary as there were quite a few characters to keep track of in this expansive tale but overall I found it very engaging. Thrills a minute and full of surprises.

Recommended for fans of fantasy, sci-fi, aliens, vampires and action adventures, in other words, pretty much everyone. Give it a try. 4.5 stars from me.”

“Not my normal read. But the author made this story interesting. Glad that i stepped out of my comfort zone and read it. Will look to read more.”

“I enjoyed this story even though its not my normal read , The author knows how to spin a story for all to enjoy”

“I wasn’t sure how I felt about alien vampires, at first, but they DID NOT disappoint! This book was a non-stop, action rollercoaster of crazy from cover to cover and I dig it! It was AWESOME!”

“This book is awesome, I love a good SF book and this has it all. I like to support authors who don’t have a huge following. That’s where you find the best stories. This is no exception!”

“The Rose is a unique dystopian tale set at the end of a world war. I loved the description of the telepathic abilities. You really get a sense of how these powers function and the logic of how they fit into this universe. You can tell that the author lives in this world and cares about the mechanics of it.

The characters are also handled with this level of sophistication and care. They breathe and inhabit this world a way that you could easily imagine yourself inhabiting it. They’re decisions, be they self-serving or altruistic, are relatable.

I loved that we got the antagonist’s perspective as well. I’m always a fan of understanding why the antagonists believe they are in the right. And the author does a great job of relating their intentions.

This book is another great read from P.D. Alleva and I look forward to reading more of his work in the future.”
