SiFi and Fanatsy Collide,
Briggen – the name conjures up dragons, space ships, other planets, and the need to turn the page.
Ann B. Keller has full two genres and woven them into a gorgeous tale blended collectively in the way no other writer had been able to do. She has full fantasy and blended it with Star Wars to bring collectively the hero known as BRIGGEN.
Briggen has banished himself to a world not his own to recover from the life he fled. His ship crashes on a planet to the top with animals of a prehistoric world. He has adapted himself to this world like only he can.
The wizard Quinhelm arrives to take Briggen back to his world. Briggen’s bother has been murdered. Quinhelm clarifies to Briggen he must return and claim the crown that was justly his. Briggen makes the choice to return only to avenge the death of his brother. Along the way, Briggen and Quinhlem cross paths with Telena who has her own cache of secrets.
Ms. Keller weaves a tale of wonder, fantasy and belief in her font that I have not seen in a long time. As Briggen learns to work the food processor on the ship he has been transported to, one can see him punching all kinds of buttons to receive the food he wants. One can visualize his frustration as he places each discarded plate to the side and growls with longing.
The reader not only sees but also feels the power of Briggen and Quinhelm as they combine their powers to keep the force shield of the disabled ship up so the wounded and non-wounded can be transported to their ship. One can see the bridge of the ship and the crew as they fight to save the crippled ship and themselves from the enemy. Ms. Keller puts her reader in that ship.
The ease in which Ms. Keller blends the two genres is seamless and one feels this is the way it must be. This novel is an absolute must read. It has many lessons of loyalty, friendship and commitment as well as being very entertaining.
I give this book five stars only because that is the highest I can go.

|A tapestry of fiction that is unique,
By alternately weaving threads of science fiction and fantasy, Ann B. Keller has made a tapestry of fiction that is unique and engrossing. From space battles and diverse races from many planets to medieval castles, dragons and wizards, “Briggen”, the first book in a promised trilogy, has all the components that readers of these genres crave. In this tale, Prince Briggen is brought back to his home planet after his brother’s death to take leadership of his public only to find out that many uncommon forces are working against him. He enlists the help of Telana, the excellent Sorceress, and Quinhelm, the wizard, in his quest. Ann B. Keller, using vivid descriptions lacking being long-winded and redundant, allows the reader to have a clear and stunning picture of everything being described. If you are an avid reader of fantasy and science fiction, then this book must be number one on your list of books to read.
