Praise from reviewers and readers

“‘Alex Webster and the Gods,’ is an entertaining, tongue-in-cheek type of humor story. I totally enjoyed reading it. David Dent has the gift of being able to catch the reader off guard with his character’s antics.”

Paige Lovitt
Reader Views Shelf, Midwest Book Review

 

“Very clever jokes and satirical portraits make this a joy to read.The author has the knack for the well-turned phrase and the clever quip.”

Writers Digest Commentary

 

“A thoroughly enjoyable romp. David Dent’s style of writing reminded me a lot of the late Douglas Adams, another master of putting characters in the most unlikely and bizarre situations.”

Simon Barrett,

“…lots of action, suspense, clever, sassy, funny. Highly recommended. A fun mythological companion to ‘The Devil and Daniel Silverman’”

Jennifer Paul, Toronto

 

“If you love wit, satire, romance, history, mythology, and a darn good story, then you will enjoy this novel immensely.”

Marylou Miner, Author of “Cushing”

 

“Alex Webster and the Gods is a lively, joyful updating of mythology. Perfect reading for beach, plane or around the house.”

Jim Smith, St. Petersburg, Florida

 

“The book is witty, and you find yourself rooting for this odd bunch of old timers (Roman gods) who really do have the best intentions - ultimately.”
