Amazon.com Review
Very original, engaging, and endearing/almost touching. A very solid entry, one of a handful of the best sci-fi entries I've read. Really enjoyed this and would look forward BOTH to the development of the Semminex character and Matthew's character.
A quick interesting hook was a very stong element in this exerpt. It is well developed in the short time and left me wanting more. The fact that I was hooked into not one but 2 storylines already is an added bonus. I like the characters so far (not sure of the name Semminex), and the world creates was great. The author did a good job of creating a world and new words without becoming confusing or dampening the flow of reading.

A great read!!!, September 6, 2010
By Haldsy31 (Kindle Edition)
Excelsior is an incredibly exciting read that is tough to put down! The characters are relatable, yet also deep, so it is tough not to get pulled in. Likewise, Sirois writes with excellent style and detail, but the book is truly a page turner. It is easy to see the story come to life in your mind's eye. The author presents us with a vivid glance into a faraway world, as well as a story unfolding in our very own. Personally, this was one of the best aspects of the book. Rather than strictly creating a fantasy world to escape to, we see these two worlds colliding to create an excellent story. Shortly after opening the cover, the reader will find him/herself thrust into the action, eager to see what will transpire next.
