Ok, those pesky pirates from earlier today (ARRRR) have finally left me alone to catch up with all the action for this month’s CSFF blog tour. It seems several of us didn’t read and review The Return because it is the third of a series and we hadn’t started it. This is always a bummer with a blog tour. But the buzz from those who have read the series seem to consistently give the book high marks. For true science fiction, it seems to really nail things. So I have poured through my tourmates to discover the best posts to read. Some have posted the back cover or author info, which helps support the books, but these following have put a little more out there for you. Of course, don’t miss out on Austin Boyd’s personal site.
Grace Bridges gives a good review.
Valerie Comer has some interesting discussion regarding the series.
Marcus Goodyear is applying his editorial kung-fu on the book – see if it holds its own!
Christopher Hopper is a fellow author who gives praise to Mr. Boyd.
Karen managed to read this book in one night – see how she did it.
Rebecca LuElla Miller discusses book 2 (The Proof) and book 3 (The Return).
John W. Otte has hands down the deepest discussion of the Mars Hill Classified trilogy, from 9/17-9/19.
Deena Peterson has an interview with Austin Boyd and further discussion of the books.
Chawna Schroeder does an in-depth review on all 3 books, from 9/7, 9/14, and 9/18.
James Somers has a nice in-a-nutshell review.
Speculative Faith promotes these books as must read sci-fi.

This month’s focus for the Christian Sci-fi and Fantasy blog tour is the last book in the Mars Hill Classified trilogy by Austin Boyd: The Return. The previous books in the series are The Evidence and The Proof.
As this book is the third of a trilogy, and I’ve been working on some other projects recently, I didn’t pick up this book to read and review it. I wish I had; I hate to miss out on good stories, but maybe I can pick it up later. Unfortunately I’m not much good for the tour this month, except I will endeavor to review other members of the blog tour and highlight insightful posts from my fellow bloggers.
First off, you can always enjoy Austin Boyd’s personal site. He has a fascinating story about his attempts to become an astronaut – worth checking out! Then Becky Miller is running reviews of the series, starting with The Evidence. Come back to her blog the next two days for the other books.
Below is a list of all the participants. Peruse them, as I will. I’ll be back with some specific links to some posts with new information on this promising series.
