5* (EPIPHANY) grabbed my attention & held me hostage from first page...assumptions I made throughout the story were mostly wrong & based on books I thought similar but weren't, as this is in a category by itself. Only after finishing did I realize how well the pieces fit together & how beautiful the ending was. I will have to read again to catch all the bits I missed from rushing to see what happens next.

5* (BACK FROM THE DEAD) This gripping novel transports a classic fictitious character into the modern world, culture and conscience. Within it's captivating pages, the author exposes the modern man for his monstrously hideous nature in contrast to his natural and timeless capacity for pure compassion. Our flaws, triumphs, aspirations, dignity and motivations are laid on the table before us and brilliantly dissected with a clear eye and a steady pen. It becomes easy to forget we are reading fiction as this tale comes to life in our hands. Benjamin Underwood Halstead
5* (SHADOW HOUSE) The reader is...taken on a hair raising journey into a dead man's life...a man who refuses to stay dead. A hint of Aaron's greed and flashbacks into PJ McAvoy's violent life are so well crafted, you feel as though you are hiding behind every corner, watching as PJ takes over Aaron's life and you are caught up in fear as you turn the page...scared of what will happen next. The twists and turns take you into a mind-boggling state, and you will never guess how the Molina family's horror will end. Michael Phelps-FLA
5* Mr. Land's (ORIGINAL BLOOD) is captivating. His writing is forceful, drawing the reader in to be a participant. I felt like I lived every scene, experiencing every event, feeling breathless at the sensual and remarkable love that spans lifetimes. A stellar book, one you should add to your to be read pile. His bold take on vampires is so original that one has to read this book, like drinking aged wine, taking small sips a little at a time, to discern its bouquet. Review by Gloria Lakritz - Senior Reviewer and review Chair for the Paranormal Romance Guild
5* (ORIGINAL BLOOD) It's indeed original. Stuart Land shows such love for one of horror's icons. The audaciousness is wonderful and so mesmerizing. It's a fine book, written with style, dignity and class. Barry Eysman-TN
5* I have to say; right here & now, Mr. Land's writing style is absolutely beautiful. I truly enjoyed every second of SHADOW HOUSE. If you read my reviews, I rarely give 5 stars; I'd give more if I could. Penelope Adams - Paranormal Romance Guild
5* (SHADOW HOUSE) ...very much stay on the edge of your seat...lots of surprises that kept me guessing from one minute to the next. If you like mystery with some supernatural thrown in get this book. It will have you asking "What came first the chicken or the egg?" bear lover (Eastern Shore, MD)
5 STARS isn't enough for ORIGINAL BLOOD! A terrific book. Attention to historic detail & descriptive words are outstanding. Character development is pure perfection! Michael Phelps-FLA
5* SHADOW HOUSE is an engrossing, truly enthralling read. Mr. Land has an inventive, sometimes very weird imagination and takes his reader on a roller coaster ride of thrills, action and twists and turns where you really don't know how it's going to end up. His writing is outstanding. James A. Anderson - Author, DEADLINE
5* I have to admit, ORIGINAL BLOOD not only held my attention, it gripped me. As in, I couldn't close the damned thing to go get some sleep. It's just simply a powerful read. Charles Burke - Author, The Business Owner's Quantum Cash Pump
4* (ORIGINAL BLOOD) Vampires with more on their mind than (just) blood and sex. Stuart takes a very unique perspective on vampires... The sensuality they share with those they love is warm and sometimes unexpected. Voracious Reader (PA USA)
