I love how Timmy manage to conquer his fears to face the dark side of the room without his father and how determinated he and his gang just to rescue his father. Having a friends that will help you is something that you need. Hope to read the whole story to know how timmy manage to rescue his father and find out who kidnapped him. Great review!

Your review has convinced me to give this book a shot. With the themes presented, I think that any child would enjoy this.

This is a truly fascinating story. I like how Dr. Barnes was able to organize beforehand for friends who'd help Timmy in case he was in need. I would like to read this. Thanks for the enthralling review.

I read the sample, and was hooked right away. Your review only adds to the intrigue, and I'm considering getting it. You have done a great job of ramping up my interest.

Thank-you for sharing your thoughts. :)

There seems to be a hefty amount of valuable lessons pertaining to life and relationships in this book. Dr Barnes is missing and his son Timmy, along with his new friends must overcome great obstacles to try to get to him. The storyline is unique and captivating. Great review.

This is a greatly written review, though I must say, had it been to choose from the look of the covers, I'd never ever have picked this one to read.The illustration looks really wanting. It's a good thing this review is here to show us what the book is actually about and it has successfully convinced me to read this book.

"Bear Company (Dark Corps) (Volume 1)" by Cameron Alexander is a #Fantasy book about the good versus evil fight between the Bear Company and the dark shadowy creatures. It follows the Bear Company and Timmy's dangerous #Adventure to reunite Timmy with his father.

I am not sure if the book is for me. Thanks for the review, though.

I will read this book when I get the chance but I wonder are the bears on the cover the invention the dad made? I suppose for this type of book it is equally as possable that the bears are the friends mentioned in the review. I guess the only way I will find out is by reading it.

Based on the cover, I was expecting robot bears, but the review didn't anything about them. It has seriously piqued my interest.

Thet say you should never chose a book by its cover, but sometimes covers seem to be really meant to do a disservice to the book content. This is, in my opinion, one of those times. Your review makes the story sound well crafted and sufficiently thought through to convey more than meats the eye at a first read. Good work on the review. Every bad cover should be accompanied by a goos (aka well written) review, that would really increase the chances fo a book to be read.

The first few pages of the book made me wary but reading this review intrigued me. The sample of the audio file of this book is even more interesting.

The review had me wondering if I read the correct sample. It's sounded dismal and depressing. When I went to double check I saw there was also a free audio file and it was amazing. Though I think it was written for young children of about four to tweens age, I think its for everybody.

Bear Company sounds like a great book to read and with me being a grandmother I would read this to my grandkids. Timmy's father seems like the idea dad always thinking of what is the best plan of action for his family when something happens to him. Cameron displays in the book that the father is acting as any everyday father would act when it comes to protecting their child. We also find that some things are not for our bad, but works for our good. The bears are there to help protect Timmy through this difficult time without his father. It has peaked my interest.
