RealmShift is a mesmerizing novel that will both entrap and entrance the reader. It is a book to be read slowly in order to discover and savor the subtle messages and twists in it.  Bitten by Books (Full review here)

And this is really a strong point which deserves mentioning: Alan Baxter excels at writing action. Whether it's man versus man, your immortal Isiah versus demons or Satan himself, you feel every bone crunching kick. You hear every wet thud of a fist hitting slimy flesh. You smell the gunpowder. Baxter's world is populated by all kinds of supernatural creatures, from angels to demons to vampires to whatever else people believe in, so the potential for conflict is limitless.   Horror Bound Online Magazine (Full review here)

So if you're willing to try something a little different, then this is the book for you to try. I highly recommend it!  Books Books and more Books (Full review here)

Prose flows smoothly, almost poetic. RealmShift is a novel I am loath to put down. A most surprising read. Quite a ride.  TCM Reviews (Full review here)

MageSign is a thriller, a mystery, a love story and a thought-provoking examination of the relationship between religion and humanity in all its glory and shame. Alan Baxter takes the reader right to the edge and then pushes us over. And I thank him for it.  Bitten by Books  (Full review here)

But Baxter’s true claim to fame is his final climaxes. In the first book, the build up was very well done although the aftermath and character reactions were disappointing – not the case here. The mounting tension is exquisitely handled, built up to a crescendo of amazing proportions.  Oz Horror Scope (Full review here)
