“A blistering, fast-paced tale channeling the likes of “Blade Runner”, “Johnny Mnemonic”, even a bit of “The Matrix”. Offering social commentary as well as thrills and intrigue, Kenyon shifts from horror to science fiction and cyberpunk smoothly, enhancing an already strong storytelling reputation and widening his repertoire…To say that this is Kenyon’s best work is a bit of a misnomer - indicating his other works are of lesser quality, which is simply not true. “Prime”, however, is much more ambitious, and offers serious introspection on the nature of man and technology…and where our world is headed. In a way - while carefully avoiding hyperbole - “Prime” offers a similar impact as Bradbury’s classic “Fahrenheit 451″, because in a world that becomes ever more “plastic”, where “reality” is so easily simulated…Kenyon’s story is hauntingly plausible.”

“His best work to date…It’s wonderful to experience a novelist taking risks and improving with each new book. Here’s hoping that Kenyon continues that way. If so, he’s certain to become a writer worth following in the coming years.”

“Intelligent horror that under no circumstances should be passed up. Set against Canada’s wintry backdrop, “The Bone Factory” vibrates with atmospheric chills. With each page the horror builds, cresting into a frantic dash to the end. Kenyon excels not only at building tension, but creating characters that readers truly care about.”

“[Bloodstone] was a pretty strong debut for a young author so of course the big question was: could he do it again? The Reach is the answer to that question and, I’m happy to say, the answer is a resounding “yes”…Kenyon’s got a great grasp on his characters and a genuine talent for breathing life into them.”

“A combination between Firestarter and The Fury…another addition to the stable of “classic” horror revisited, which is always a good thing!”

“Rich with detail…Unfamiliar with his first book, this reviewer was so impressed with [Kenyon's] sophomore effort that she will be adding Bloodstone to her Christmas wish-list. Here’s hoping that Santa will bring both books to readers everywhere this year.”

“Kenyon follows up his highly praised Bloodstone with another great read in The Reach…[he] ratchets the tension up with each chapter, before storming through to an Armageddon like finale followed by a nice denouement which might, or might not, suggest Kenyon isn’t through with a few of the characters. Whether his next novel take place in the same when doesn’t matter. I’ll read whatever this guy puts out next.”
