The Odd, Onward Door 1. Doorways

This is the first in the marvelous and continuing Door Series.

If you were an incredibly advanced alien race and had to place one of your teleportation way stations on a backward and no tech planet, where would you put it? In the middle of nowhere; under a hill in the rural hinterlands of New York. Never imagining it would be discovered a millennium later by two intrepid teens. It's hard for me to praise this story enough. It's a touch of Stargate with benevolent ancient aliens meets teenage love story. You'll love it as much as I did and beg for more.

A very intriguing story about two gay teens, who make an amazing discovery. The characters feel real, the story flowed, and I didn't spot any errors.

My only criticism is the story is long for one chapter. That makes it hard to read when you can't do it in one sitting. Aside from that, a most excellent story.

There is a good reason I am only giving this five stars.  I really would like to give it seven stars, but the system limits me to five, instead of seven out of five.

The story starts in a rural setting, as Derry and his boyfriend, Caleb (nickname: Cally) are having summer fun on the farm of Derry's Granddad, Mike.  Cally has discovered an interesting anomaly on one part of the farm; he shows Derry, and an adventure begins.  

The action builds gradually, and flows naturally. Each preparation, each discovery, adds to the story.  There are only five characters in the story-- Derry, Cally, Granddad Mike, Derry's mother, and Difris (in order of appearance and speaking role).    Various adventures take place, each proceeding with reason from a previous one, and it comes together in a harmonious whole.

An excellent read.  Looking forward to sequels.

Having been a big fan of all your stories I was most impressed by this one. i hope you plan a sequel, or sequels. Considering the multiplicity, possibly infinite, of doors you could spend the rest of your life at the keyboard, but another trip to Amsterdam would be greatly appreciated. Enorm bedankt.

Perhaps you remember those old Sci-fi adventure books from the days before everyone had a computer and mobile phone. That bygone time when boys set out on fantastic adventures that were at once scary, always carrying a hint of danger, and also something that was a challenge not to be missed. 

In this super tale from Geron Keys two close friends (boyfriends, this is after all a story brought up to date) discover something incredible, something long since buried, and something they have to explore. We follow the duo as they prepare to embark on their journey into the unknown. What they find holds promise, sadness and danger, but our two heroes have their ingenuity to help them succeed and each other to rely on.

The story is so well narrated that you are right there with them and might find yourself reading faster just to see what happens as the suspense builds and we don't know if they will make it back. The author conjures up in our imagination a remote old farm in the middle of rural America that holds an incredible secret, and both need to be protected.

At the end you will come away feeling that was a great adventure, but wondering what might happen next? Well that is left open for a possible continuation and sequel, which I would bet a lot of readers would like to see!
