"Reviewed by Sarah Stuart for Readers' Favorite on 27th September 2017.
Five Stars'Zeeka Chronicles: Revenge of Zeeka by Brenda Mohammed opens with Zeeka and the Zombies.
 
On the island of Gosh in January 2036 Raynor Sharpe is woken by rattling to see a beach full of small robots. Is he still dreaming? 
Raynor is a hospital doctor and so is the woman he secretly loves, but Janet is engaged to another man. 
Gosh's carnival is turned from an exotic native spectacle to tragedy by a troop of entertainers: zombies who shoot into the audience killing and injuring hundreds. 
How can these monsters disintegrate into a heap of dust?
Why is one false head found? 
Who is Zeeka, and does he control the zombies? 
Why does Janet cancel her wedding? 
Can the Chief of Police be trusted, or is he as corrupt as others in the force? Read on: Zeeka's Child; Zeeka Returns, Zeeka's Ghost, and Resurrection hold the un-guessable answers.
Zeeka Chronicles comprises five books from the Revenge of Zeeka series. 2036 is shown as a technically advanced world by gadgets like watches that act much like today's smartphones plus visual contact, robots and much more. 
The story is built on the premise that a doctor discovers a cure for a disease but is prevented from using it, but the plot becomes more entangled the farther you read. Police corruption, suicide, kidnapping, and a very active ghost.
Brenda Mohammed's writing style is evocative of the future and she handles the science in her fiction brilliantly: reading is believing! 
I loved Zeeka Chronicles; it has worldwide appeal for anyone looking for an entertaining story that is different."

GOD'S CHOSEN ONES - A MUST-READ BOOK IN CHAOTIC TIMES

 



REVIEWED BY LOIS HENDERSON FOR READERS’ FAVORITE.
Chosen by the Creator: Bible Stories by Brenda Mohammed is aimed at helping the reader trace the line of descendants as far back as to the beginning of mankind, with the story of Adam and Eve.
Mohammed, who is a firm believer in the fact that "the Bible is God's biography written by his chosen ones," explains, with the help of quotations from the Bible, how the contents of each of its books relate to the whole.
Mohammed ends Chosen by the Creator: Bible Stories with additional material that provides true value for the reader, including the importance of having our names written down in the Book of Life; the text of her favorite two Psalms, 23 and 121 (which is my favorite, too) and a conclusion, confirming her desire (which she has successfully fulfilled) to write a story of God's chosen ones from each book in both the Old and the New Testament.
I love the way, Brenda Mohammed, in her work Chosen by the Creator: Bible Stories, affirms her desire that the stories she retells in accessible and straightforward language will convince the reader of the genuineness and authenticity of their source in divine will.
For any newcomer to the Bible, Mohammed's clear and simple explanation of the primary focus of each book is illuminating.
Her earnest and heartfelt urging that "all God wants from us is obedience" is a resounding call to us to listen to the word of God and to obey. In short, Chosen by the Creator: Bible Stories is a wonderful supplement to the Bible, although, as Mohammed clearly states, it is certainly no replacement for it."
