POSITIVE BOOK REVIEW = BEST SELLER?

The Sicilian Favour! – Peter Oredsson Author’s Review Dear Peter, What a fabulous story. I really liked the characterisation and the way you brought all the threads together and I thought the ending was very clever and quite unexpected. All of my edits are within the text including any comments in the margin. One observation I would like to make and that is often after speech, you do not have a subject and verb to commence the next line when describing the speaker’s feelings or reaction. I have put many of these in but have tended to use the verb ‘said’ or ‘replied’, you could alter these as you see fit. Otherwise the editing was pretty minimal and was just confined to some phraseology and spelling. I wish you the best of luck with this publication; it was a very enjoyable read.

Is a real page turner from an established author who knows just what it takes to keep the reader’s attention. Press Release Peter Oredsson’s The Sicilian Favour! Is an exotic tale of love and loss, greed and fear, power and desire set against the exotic backdrop of the criminal underworld in Melbourne, Australia. There is plenty of drama and it is impossible not to be drawn in by the characters all of whom have traits and problems that every reader can identify with. It could be you losing your job and haplessly falling in with the wrong crowd after a chance encounter in a bar, beginning a spiral into a seedy and criminal underworld . All aspects of the human condition are highlighted in The Sicilian Favour! as a clever plot entwines a gamut of characters some of whom seem to bear no connection to the others. The storyline is intricate, the drama is pacey and the reader will find it impossible to predict the outcome and will be kept in suspense until the very last page is turned. Peter Ordesson is an accomplished author who knows his craft.

ALL YOU NEED IS ONE YES!

Never give up!It took me 4 years to write The Sicilian Favour…and after hundreds of rejections from both literary agents and publishing companies. I have finally signed a traditional publishing contract with royalties paid in advance with a London based company! The book should be in the market place around September and October 2016. The rejections make you question your abilities. Don’t take it personally…it’s a numbers game – all you need is one YES!

The Sicilian Favour Blurb!

Would you buy this book if you read this blurb on the back cover? A high-paced, intriguing story of human obligation, conspiracy and manipulation. While based in Australia’s cultural capital of Melbourne, the story’s links to the Australian and international underworld, find the reader racing to keep pace with the intertwined lives of the story’s main protagonists. Interest is constantly held by the twists and turns in this hard-hitting tale. The innocent persona of some of the book’s principal characters, masks an underbelly of corruption. The book’s unlikely anti-hero, Mikael steps into a world of deception when he accepts The Sicilian Favour. Finding himself in unfamiliar territory on the wrong side of the law, his life becomes inter-related with individuals he would rather have avoided. Yet his own story and that of his wife produce some unexpected revelations. Mikael’s path crosses the ubiquitous Chloe, through the medium of a hypno-therapist - of murky Russian origin. Chloe’s twisted background and colourful present day life mark her as the centre of intrigue in the book. It is Chloe’s story that will keep you turning the pages of this book, what fate unfolds for her? Will she survive the world she has immersed herself in? Reminiscent of the tale of “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo”, readers will be riveted to this yarn from the start. Warning! You will find it difficult to put this book down.
