"A darkly imaginative thriller featuring plenty of sharp characters
and emotional complexity."
—Kirkus “Horrifying yet so compelling. I enjoyed every page!”
—Brienne Dubh, Escapology Reviews

go read it! (...) I enjoyed it immensely and fully recommend.”
—Diary of a Reading Addict
“Pivot is an exciting, dark, intriguing, and ultimately enjoyable
book. The pacing is exciting, and the development of Jack from
innocent child to indoctrinated assassin to an aware, empowered
young woman is masterfully done.”
—TehBen.com Book Reviews
“A brilliant blend of mystery and horror. (...) Pivot is well
plotted and the author introduces twists that readers won’t see
coming. L.C. Barlow takes readers on a perilous journey, crafting
scenes that are emotionally charged and focused and creating
characters that are both complex and real.”
—Readers’ Favorite Book reviews (five stars)
“An engrossing read full of twisted relationships and otherworldly
powers. Barlow managed the feat of giving both the characters and
the world a sense of depth. The supernatural powers—Cyrus, his
enemy the man with stars in his body, and the mysterious red box
that gives and takes his abilities—all have a weight and history to
them, a sense of rules, that intertwine with the characters
relationships in a satisfying way.”
—Antonio Urias, author of The Chronicles of Talis
“An intelligent, beautifully written thriller.”
—Charles Baker, IndieReader
