Steven W. Rodgers | 11/29/2022 | "It was a terrific read. You can be proud of your accomplishment!" |
Samiat Bakare | 12/2/2022 | "The very first chapter is mind-bending! There is a subtle sense of tension and impending doom. Curiosity kept me scrolling faster than I was reading…an awesome story, with much for the reader to learn and enjoy." |
Less Cobb, Reviewer | 12/4/2022 | "What a story! Every page is a turner. Both intense and amusing in the author's unique style of interrelating a myriad of related subject matter. His handling of the intense romance between Andrea Cole and Jason Lang makes one wish to become one or the other—it is heartwarming and beautiful." |
Deborah Dolen | 12/27/2022 | "A Refreshingly Authentic Novel - Very Captivating. I was surprised the book was so large. It was a page turner. These days few authors are value driven. Sadly I
am not seeing any other books by this author so hopefully there will be more to follow. At the end of the book
the author does mention a few more spin offs in the works. I hope sooner rather than later." |
VINE VOICE | 12/27/2022 | "Great Read. Macom Farm – by Tom Baldwin is a gripping and well-written long novel about a small town on the brink of
destruction through over-development. The first chapter alone piques your interest and keeps it as the story
develops well beyond any expectation. With an intense and dangerous undercurrent, the plot takes shape as
multiple forces come into play. The characters are well wrought and carefully integrated into the story, while
the setting feels intimate and natural. Relationships are challenged and drama unfolds nicely in this epic tale. A
challenging read, but one certainly worth your time and effort, you will find yourself flipping the pages to get
to the end. Highly recommend." |
Grady Harp | 12/27/2022 | "An epic opening and a great read. Florida author Tom Baldwin has served as a journalist, a crime and features news reporter, author of
shipbuilding proposals for naval and commercial ships, and a nuclear systems editor, having grown up in
Connecticut - all factors that add to the credibility of this initial volume of his series Taking Prank Chronicles.
As Baldwin notes, ‘MACOM FARM is a fictional tale supported by historical fact, unsettling law, emerging
technologies, and interactions that resemble probability.’ He opens his series with poetry, poetically painting
an atmosphere: ‘By around 6:00 p.m., the city park known as Boston Common began to resemble in its
tranquility that of a suburban village green. That might change, but not until later, certainly not now, at least
not until after the wane of a newly risen moon, appearing this night in late May as a supermoon - its
countenance surreal as it rises above the horizon - close up, telescopic, revealing its craters, even the rubble
within them cold be imagined…’ That quality of prose is present throughout this impressive novel." |
