Story Behind The Book

Reviews

<em>&quot;Rich with imagery, this is one book I hope fulfills your every wish.&quot;</em><div>Monette Bebow Reinhard, author: <em>The Felling of The Sons and </em>Mystic Fire<em>.</em></div><div><em><br /></em></div><div><em><span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;line-height:18px;">&quot;I really enjoyed this first chapter and am now looking forward to reading the rest of this novel. I found it engaging and riveting from the prologue. I enjoy the premise of the story and it is definitely a novel I'd be interested in reading. Virginia Mae Mercy is a complex and curious character that I will enjoy discovering as well as the rest of the story. Can't wait!&quot;  </span><span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:14px;line-height:18px;">Mohawkgrl </span></em></div>
