The Phoenix Rebellion Book I: Revolution
Gail Delaney's [REVOLUTION] combines intricate characterization with a gripping plot that makes for a page-turning read. Science fiction, political intrigue, romance and adventure are all deftly woven together in the live of CJ Montgomery and Nick Tanner as they face a far-too-plausible future- Earth under Areth rule. This is a not to be missed book.
~Linnea Sinclair, RITA Award winning author of Gabriel's Ghost and Games of Command
The Phoenix Rebellion Book 1: [Revolution] is one of those rare books that doesn't let go of you just because you've finished reading it. I'm not sure if the reason is the compelling plot, the multiple story threads woven so seamlessly together, the surprising twists and cliff-hanger ending, or the characters who are so real that I've caught myself worrying about them. You decide. This book is a MUST READ...This may well be my favorite book of all time. The Phoenix Rebellion Book 1: Rising Up is one of those rare books for which a five heart rating seems sadly inadequate. Don't miss this one!

Futuristic science fiction at its best, The Phoenix Rebellion Book 1: [Revolution] leaves the reader on the edge of their seating waiting impatiently for more. I loved this unexpectedly intriguing book because it captivated my imagination and then left me begging for more... Ms. Delaney has captured the essence of a romance that gives the reader everything they are looking for in a book, gripping suspense, villains, heroes and heroines and love that exists even years later. I loved this book from the first word to the last and I will be waiting for the release of the next book in this series, even if it is impatiently.

Reviewer: Sheryl
Lovers of the science fiction romance genre rejoice! There is a new voice on the scene and [REVOLUTION] by Ms. Delaney has to be the best in this genre that this reviewer has ever had the pleasure of reading!...[REVOLUTION] will whet your appetite with dynamic characters and a premise that so plausible that it might cause the reader to stop and seriously consider the possibility of it actually occurring. This reader is hooked indeed and waiting rather impatiently for Book 2: OUTCASTS to also be released.

[REVOLUTION] blew me away! Ms. Delaney creates a compelling world filled with mystery and romance. C.J. and Nick are forced to overcome the troubles of the past to get a second chance at love. Michael, who has been abused as an Areth captive, must learn to trust and love. I enjoyed the fact that Ms. Delaney didn't portray all Areths as evil, but as individuals with unique personalities. I am enthralled by the mystery of the Areth and can't wait for the next installment to the series.

Ms. Delaney draws a beautiful portrait of a family separated by unknown forces and brought together under very difficult circumstances who manage to grow bonds that will last a life time. The story ends at one part, but leaves many unanswered questions. Will the main characters live? Can Earth find allies to help them fight the Areth? How will it all end up? These are questions that this reader will be looking for in the next installment of Phoenix [Revolution]. This is a book that anyone who loves Sci-Fi and a great love story will not want to miss.

This is an entertaining, fast-moving novel that has an abundance of unsolved puzzles in preparation for the second book. The characters are fresh, some unpredictable, indicating that the emotions of the Earth of the future might be quite similar to those of today.

And what do Readers say about Phoenix: Revolution?
Phoenix Rebellion: [Revolution], is AWESOME!!!! I love this book, I love the whole series! Nick is such a an mmmmmm---mmmmmm kinda hero and CJ is his perfect balance. This isn't the average futuristic. It's frightning and thought provoking considering the scientific progress our world is constantly achieving. The romance is sensual and HOT, the plot 'edge of your seat' and I canNOT wait for the next book in the series to come out!
~ Jaycee
The Phoenix Rebellion – [Revolution] was a great read. I could not believe that a 160+ page book went so fast and left me looking for more! It was a pure joy from the start to finish.
Ms. Delaney wrote a beautiful story of the will to survive when humankind is faced with adversity. She has woven a great foundation for a continuing saga to keep reader enthralled. For someone that was not sure if she could write a love affair in the Sci Fi genre she did a wonderful job.
Kudos to Ms. Delaney and here’s to hoping for many more.

The Phoenix Rebellion Book II: Outcasts
Sci-fi at its best, The Phoenix Rebellion Book 2: Outcasts is a roller coaster ride through the unknown that ultimately leads towards human resilience in the face of devastation and hope, that they will succeed in the war for their lives'. To say this book was great is an understatement; I was thoroughly immersed in it that I found it hard to put down for even a second...If you have not read the first book in this series yet, then you need to get it because The Phoenix Rebellion series is a fantastic sci-fi where humans are fighting for their very lives' and you will kick yourself if you do not read it.

Ms. Delaney has written a series that is reminiscent of one that was written by E. E. “Doc” Smith’s “The Lensman Series.” This is the highest praise that I can give. I will be waiting impatiently for the next installment of The Phoenix Rebellion.

Ms. Delaney builds slow psychological terror into a gripping story of survival. Her main characters display interesting mixtures of vulnerability and strength, doubt and understanding. While you needn’t have read the first book of the Phoenix Rebellion to understand OUTCASTS, it would help you understand the ongoing story.

Ms. Delaney has once again created a fabulous book that takes a thrilling ride into a world that only wishes their freedom. This terrific science fiction tale is remarkably written and incredibly detailed. Be prepared to be captivated by another excellent winner by Ms. Delaney.

The Phoenix Rebellion Book III: Gaining Ground
From the first page Gaining Ground just drags you in and makes you read as you turn the pages until the end and you can't help but be engrossed... I loved reading about all the different characters but I have to say reading about Jace and Lilly just cemented how much this series has kept me enthralled. Lilly has just gotten used to living with the fact her husband was dead but now it appears they were wrong and he is now back but with problems of his own. I felt for Lilly and also Jace because they lost a part of their lives that they will never get back and the struggle they face trying to make a way of life for them all in such troubled times. Gaining Ground doesn't only tell about Lilly and Jace but all of those fighting the good fight, against an evil that will stop at nothing to bring them to heel. Gail Delaney certainly has a gifted talent for writing such amazing work and I cannot wait to read the next chapter of these astounding characters and how they fight to get back the world that was stolen from them. Read this series and you will fall in love with each and every one of these characters yourself.

One again Ms. Delaney has woven a very intricate and fascinating plot that will captivate the reader. I was holding my breath during many parts of this book! There were some very surprising revelations that the reader was not expecting. There is enough love, action, and drama to hold every ones interest. There are so many different sub stories and intricate plot twists that the reader is forever looking at what will happen next. ... I give this book a rating of five angels and a Recommended Read. I can’t wait to see how the story finally ends. Thank you Ms. Delaney for writing such a fascinating series.

Just when this reviewer thought that the Phoenix Rebellion could not get any better, Ms. Delaney comes out with the latest installment GAINING GROUND. This book has to be the best futuristic romance that this reader has ever read as it could happen. Ms. Delaney has made this possible future all too real which adds greatly to the terror of the tale.

The Phoenix Rebellion: Gaining Ground is a story that practically jumps from the pages. I can’t recall reading such a great futuristic romance of this nature in a good while. Reading about the struggle of the men and women trying to survive in this story was incredible. The characters are like everyday people with doubts and flaws that the reader cannot but help to identify with the individuals. The ordeals that Jace endured were so intense it pricks the reader’s heart. The emotions that Lilly feels for her little child reach out and grab, as does her love for Jace. This book has an incredible plot and is absolutely spellbinding. Ms. Delaney pens stories that captivate and takes the reader to a whole new world of adventure. I absolutely love her flare of writing. She fashions in-depth characters that remain with the reader, and this story is no exception. Grab some Kleenex and get ready for an exhilarating read one won’t soon forget, this book rates a deserving five angels and a Recommended Read.

Each new book in the Phoenix Rebellion adds new layers to the wonderful world created by Ms. Delaney....GAINING GROUND has all the characters that I have grown to love, and the villains that I love to hate. I was enthralled from the beginning and biting my nails by the end of the story. I can't wait to read the last book, END GAME!
Reviewer: Marlene Breakfield
Ms. Delaney has captured in her characters the desperation in their love, the realization that none of us are entitled or guaranteed love or time with our lovers, that both are so fragile and so precious, hinging on a heartbreat. ... the third book in the Phoenix Rebellion series is top notch. The chracters are old friends, they are so well developed. The plot is amazing with a pace that moves along without any slow partts. ...My heart was so touched by Gaining Ground b Gail R. Delaney; I wouldn't have wanted to miss out on anything.

And what do Readers say about Phoenix: Gaining Ground?
The Phoenix Rebellion series is an absolute joy of a read; I found it impossible NOT to continue reading from Rising Up till I completed Outcasts.
Ms. Delaney has skillfully woven a story filled with characters that I feel I know personally and would welcome into my house any day. She has a knack for mixing the intergalactic adventure~ including love, lust and suspense and the necessary unrequited love into this saga to the point of not being able to wait patiently for the next release!

With her flair of writing this series, she makes the tales believable in every shape and form. I almost hated to say good-bye to the series; then again, they left such a wonderful impression, that they will stay long with me. Every one of these books are grand and astonishing in itself.

Ms. Delaney makes all the characters and the story feel as if the reader is part of the family, and when united, it gives a peaceful feeling of going home.

Delaney has done a phenomenal job of wrapping up what has to be one of the best futuristic series to have crossed this reviewer’s path in a long, long time. Each book has focused on one couple while keeping us up to date on the happenings in the lives of the other members of Phoenix.

Needless to say, it comes very highly recommended to any lovers of futuristic romance. Get your copy today! Heck, pick up the whole series. You are sure to enthralled.
Rating: 5 Hearts
Reviewer: Shaiha
End Game is climax of science fiction series that appears worthy of the often overused word “epic”.... The story is extremely exciting with many characters that have obviously been involved in earlier chapters of the story. Michael and Jacqueline are heroic and real, and I couldn’t stop myself from alternately nail biting and cheering for them. The love scenes in the book are invested in a sensuality that is made more engaging by the sincerity and depth of emotion between the lovers. Ms. Delaney has also invested loving care into the detailed development of her world and all her characters. This is a gripping saga that any sci-fi fan is guaranteed to enjoy. My only complaint is that I didn’t know about this series sooner.
