Praises for ‘Golden’

Golden

The new book by author David Pereda (“Golden”) took me on an exciting trip that started in Mexico City, then continued to Rio de Janeiro, followed by Paris, Barcelona, Hollywood, Miami, and finally Asheville. The two main protagonists, Thomas and Alex, are trying to figure out who is trying to kill Prince Alexander Poniatowski (Alex), and there are plenty of potential suspects.

Mixing action scenes and a few comedic passages, the author presents a fast-moving, action-packed storyline which, if you had read his other most recent book, “The Wall,” you could say it continues the rollercoaster ride that is the life of Thomas and Alex.

In each chapter, Mr. Pereda added twists, intrigues, and turns that kept this reader thinking I knew the person responsible for ordering the ‘hit’ on Alex, but the ending surprised me.

If you want a quick, fast-paced, yet easy-to-read novel, I highly recommend “Golden.”

Things start to get intense when a hit man is hired! *Gulp* the book was both interesting and well penned, I also really liked the front cover. It’s also on kindle unlimited which is a bonus!

Golden, David Pereda’s latest novel reads like an installment of the Fast and Furious movie franchise-swift, with unexpected twists and turns, filled with exotic locales and unique, larger-than-life characters, and oh, let’s not forget feisty, beautiful women, muscular macho men, and romantic love stories.

Pereda has done it again.

This time he has pushed the envelope in a different direction, using the assassination attempt on Prince Alex as a starting point-the first layer of the intricate plot.

By the time the book finishes, you will have taken a trip around the world, learned a few foreign words and discovered how the Russians could have infiltrated the US government.

I am looking forward to Pereda’s next novel in the series to see what outlandish plot he can develop next time. I highly recommend this book and this author.

Praises for ‘The Wall’

The Wall

“Timely, tense, and tumultuous, The Wall is a family saga, a border thriller, and a novel of sizzling suspense.” –Paul Levine, author of the #1 National Bestseller BUM RAP

“The Wall is a beautiful story, with flawless editing and stylish writing.” –Readers Favorite

“…. I could not stop reading it. The life paths of two families; Thomas and Cecilia Bertram, and Domingo, Blanca and their young daughter, Nancy, were so different and yet so alike. I highly recommend this author.” J. F. Nodar, author of ‘Books, Pens & Larceny’.

Praises for ‘However Long the Night’

However Long the Night

“I loved David Pereda’s novel, However Long the Night. I finished it more quickly than any book I’ve read in a long time.  HLTN is an exciting page-turner, and I look forward to the author’s next book.” –Iamfur, Amazon.com

“However Long the Night was probably one of the best well written stories that I have read in a long time. It was a novel I kept thinking about long after I set it aside. I would give this a 5-star Plus if that was possible.” –Books Mom, It’s Raining Books

“I talked about your book However Long the Night on our morning show and Wow! After the first page…I was not able to let it go. I love the way you present the characters and the way the story goes.” –Sandra Landry, Superstation CKle.fm – New Brunswick, Canada

“As a skilled writer, David Pereda manages to keep the mystery of the story suspended, thus engaging the reader to the very end. I was hooked by the three-dimensional complexity of the character development and the swirling description.” –Declan Munro, Shard Publications, U. K.

Praises for ‘Havana: Top Secret’

Havana: Top Secret

“In the vein of great thriller/suspense, David Pereda upholds the genre with Hispanic flair. If you like Harlan Coben, you’re sure to enjoy David Pereda’s fascinating take on a hired assassin, a kidnapped physician, a long love lost, and Fidel Castro. Havana Top Secret is a delightful read. –Susan Blexrud, best-selling author of Love Fang and Fang Shui

“So good, I bought a second copy for my college student nephew. The author has the ability to make you feel you are there and part of the action in Fidel Castro’s Cuba. Sex, intrigue, sex, danger, sex, conspiracy, more sex – what else can you ask for?” –Anita Bates, Amazon.com

“Havana: Top Secret starts at a gallop and never lets up. David Pereda’s writing is tight and intense. Each chapter seems to end with a cliff-hanger that will keep you turning the pages well into the night. The characters are unforgettable, the plot intense, the backdrop exotic—and this book has all the makings of a bestseller.”     –P.M.Terrell, award-winning author of Exit 22, River Passage, and Vicki’s Key

Praises for Havana: Confidential

Havana: Confidential

“…Havana Confidential transports us to the internal world and thoughts of maybe the most ingenious, cold and calculating man in Latin American politics. David Pereda, in his novel, makes us understand how we, latinos, reinvent ourselves in a world that isn’t ours in order to exist, and how we must return to our roots in order to achieve our full potential as human beings.” –Martin Ospina, Miami-Dade Calle Ocho Newspaper

“A very interesting plot. Havana Confidential offers Anglo readers the opportunity to learn about the real Cuban experience. I hope it sells a lot of copies.”  –Agustin Acosta, Talk Show Host for TVC-Miami

“Havana Confidential promises to be a great success with both Anglo and Hispanic readers.” –Idamis Toledo, Talk Show Host Tampa TV 62

“Havana Confidential is exciting and unpredictable.” –Jose Diaz Balart and Olga Dagger, TV Talk Show Hosts for “Telemundo International Live for America”

Praises for Twin Powers

Twin Powers

“The novels of David Pereda never disappoint in how topics from current events are spun into stories that leave the reader wondering if Pereda is creating from a secret knowledge of actual occurrences. Twin Powers is no exception.” –W. F. Hauck, author of Lyleith Awakening and Windjammer

Praises for Freaking Fast

Freaking Fast

“Still thinking about this book, Freaking Fast, weeks after reading it. Twists and turns I didn’t see coming. Futuristic technology that is very believable and could be right around the corner. Mr. Pereda, are you an inventor or a prophet?” –Jane Strauss, Amazon.com

Praises for Havana: Blues

“Without revealing the text of this book, all I have to say is that it is brilliant…. It makes you ponder if this could really happen….Makes you wonder….”  –Roberto Rodriguez, Amazon.com
