Romance, adventure, mystery, rescues, deception, and vivid descriptions make<i> I, Walter </i>a most enjoyable and inspirational read of chivalry. This CBR reviewer looks forward to reading more of the Crofter saga from Mike Hartner." Chanticleer Book Reviews<br />
" This book truly is New York Best-seller material!" Charity_Langley (goodreads.com)<br /><br />
"This book would certainly be a big budget Hollywood movie, one day, if any producer has an imagination as rife as the writer of this book. Worth a read!" Namta Gupta, Bookpleasures.com<br /><br />

"Excellent book. It evokes the era perfectly. It was a delight to read and I was sorry to finish it as it felt as if I was leaving a friend behind."
