From the rear cover: "In Beware of Memories readers learned there are intelligent civilizations in the galaxy and one of them is attempting to make peaceful contact with a warlike species  mankind. In this continuation we navigate murder, deceit, political intrigue and personal tragedy to arrive at first contact. Can the promise of wondrous advances for humans, be reconciled with crimes against humanity? Difficult choices are made, while one is forced to answer the question: Â'What would you do?Â' As the choices are made and second-guessed, Beware of Redemption introduces a much higher level to this three-dimensional chess match. Intricate plans rarely survive contact with reality, and in this case the players donÂ't even understand the game. As I was reading Beware of Redemption I soon realized this is an example of Science Fiction done right. There is just the right amount of alien tech, just the right touch of suspense, and just the right number of errors in judgment on both sides of the universe. The Beware series (this is book 2) is the new standard by which I will apply all of my future readings. Patrick Jaynes and Darlien C. Breeze have quickly become my favorite Science Fiction authors. Keep your eye on them. They promise more surprises in store in their next book. Mae Argilan Editor, Author Â"Girl Meets BayouÂ" Double Dragon Books Sci-fi fans who appreciate elements of romance, political action, and investigative intrigue woven into their storylines will appreciate the many paths Beware of Redemption takes in the course of presenting a thought-provoking story of a president's connections with alien special interests. - D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review." GoodReads rating: 5.0 stars. Signed by Patrick K. Jaynes (his signature only). First Edition (so stated). Softcover. New condition.

From the rear cover: "A mix of mystery science fiction international intrigue with a touch of romance Beware of Memories leaves the reader wanting for nothing except the next book in the series." From a GoodReads review by Carol Mitchell: "OMG! Let's begin by saying how good this book is. Darlien C. Breeze and Patrick K. Jaynes PHD Kept me awake for two nights, because they were not playing when they wrote this book. Beware of Memories is especially good if you're seeking a read out of the rigagamor of romance and vampire stories. It's what one would call a soft brand of Science Fiction, and a darn good read that keeps you transfixed throughout the entire read! The thing I loved most about this book, is how it pulls the reader in and holds their attention with everything under the sun, including a rare opportunity to imagine! My kids called me for dinner as Science fiction captured my imagination. That night, my food got cold, because I simply could not let this book go. To me Patrick and Darlien both gave us the right mix of excitement, intrigue, and readers will be able to enjoy futurism that truly does not let you down. In fact, it is entertaining; it's inspiring if you can imagine that! The story begins with Dr. Peter Kirby who incorporates Simone, who happens to be an alien. Simone is to help the people of Earth relive past events. Kirby has honed the technology required to achieve a brilliant goal; just remember to pick your tongue up and keep going. Keep in mind you have to read each word to see how this brand of technology, in the wrong hands, could have altering effects. The humans who resist these attempts are summarily eliminated and this process draws the attention of our protagonists, Gardner Poole from Scotland Yard. There's also Emma Bossart from Interpol. Book one follows the machinations of these detectives as they work to uncover the truth behind the deaths. What got me most in this great read was how the detectives became targets themselves; as they discover that there is something not quite right in their own workplaces. Beware of Memories gives us a great respite in reading to try something fresh and new. The aliens hovering upon earth. And, man you don't want any of this to end. It's exciting; it's revealing to see that the aliens are actually quite friendly. I was thrilled when they made it to the White House and was welcomed. This is one of those reads you want to give 10 stars but are limited to give only 5. Beware of Memories offers loads of superlatives, in adjective form, let's say there is adventure, thrills, suspense, love and some darn good writing!" GoodReads rating 4.63 stars.
