review 1: "Even smoke runs from the fire. But I find myself compelled to enter hell's havoc and the swirling chasm, to take for my own the taming of the element, screwing my courage to the sticking place. When blackness billows heaven-bent from hallways, and flame tips lick lintels like a serpent's tongue, the Sirens stand singing. Mast ties won't hold fast.Enter the cloud.Enveloped by heat.Vanquish the destroyer.I come from a family of firemen. And borne into my blood was a gift. It arrives at times in whispers, other times more subtle. But beyond the beckon of skeptical sensibilities I've become convinced.The fire speaks to me."Wow! What a way with words. Author, Shawn Grady, caught me 'hook, line and sinker' right from these opening paragraphs. Can't wait to discover whe... morere this series goes; if the rest live up to the caliber of Book 1 in "First Responders" I won't be disappointed.
review 2: 4.5 Stars!!!I loved this book! This was an awesome story, although it is different than most suspense novels, but I loved that! I have recently discovered that I enjoy suspense stories about firefighters, and I really enjoyed this one. I especially loved the fact that the author is a firefighter and paramedic so he writes from personal experience, this book was written so realistically that many times I felt like I was really there, living the story right alongside the characters! The mystery behind the fires was absolutely brilliant, and I was very surprised by the identity of the arsonist, every guess I had as to who was setting the fires was incorrect and who it actually was totally threw me for a loop, did not see that coming!!! Overall, I hated to put this book down! Through The Fire was a joy to read, especially the last few chapters!!! Shawn Grady now has a spot on my list of favorite suspense authors and I can't wait to read more of his books!!!I highly recommend this one!!! :-) less
