What are people saying about Asclepias?

"By the first sentence you realize ASCLEPIAS is going to be intriging. What you don't know that it is loaded with enough mystery and excitement that you literally will not be able to put it down. There is no stopping place! The descriptive setting helps you to place the action and also causes you to want to know more about the area around the Chiricahua Mountains and Desert and maybe spend some time in investigating the beautiful state of Arizona." B.J. Sollars - Amazon.com review

"Great Easy Read! The Tony Spencer book has great flow and is loaded with actual information! Not too technical and quite entertaining makes it an easy read.
I see the start of an awesome series." Christy - Amazon.com review

"Chris Kline has done it again! Asclepias is another adventure in the life of Kline's protagonist, Tony Spencer. Tony is hunting for milkweeds this time, hoping to find a rumored new species. That would seem to be a fairly tame occupation, except that bodies keep turning up, placed on display in places where they will be found. The killer (or killers) is sending a message. The deceased are illegal border crossers, and the cause of death proves to be something surprising and novel. Tony nearly meets the same fate when the 'bad guys" catch him. Toss in a wicked woman boss, a little romance, a snake bite, and you won't be able to put this book down! Kline gives the reader beautiful prose pictures of Arizona. "Seeing" the southern Arizona wilderness area through his words is almost as good as being there." Pearl Nancarrow - Amazon.com review
