Description

<h2>Taliesin Weaver thought that he had saved himself and his friends when he defeated the witch Ceridwen. He was wrong.</h2><h3><i>He always thought of evil as embodied in external threats that he could overcome in combat. Soon he will discover that the worst evil has been inside of him all along....</i></h3><p>Tal’s girlfriend is in a coma for which he holds himself responsible. A close friend, suffering from a past-life memory trauma similar to Tal's, is getting worse, not better. Morgan Le Fay is still lurking around and has an agenda Tal can’t figure out. Supernatural interruptions in his life are becoming more frequent, not less so, despite his expectations. In fact, Tal learns that something about his unique nature amplifies otherworldly forces in ways he never imagined were possible, ways that place at risk everyone close to him.</p><p>Tal and his allies must face everything from dead armies to dragons. As soon as they overcome one menace, another one is waiting for them. More people are depending on Tal than ever; he carries burdens few adults could face, let alone a sixteen-year-old like himself. Yet somehow Tal at first manages to handle everything the universe throws at him.</p><p>What Tal can’t handle is the discovery that a best friend, almost a brother, betrayed him, damaging Tal’s life beyond repair. For the first time, Tal feels a darkness within him, a darkness which he can only barely control...assuming he wants to. He’s no longer sure. Maybe there is something to be said for revenge, and even more to be said for taking what he wants. After all, he has the power...</p><p> </p><h2><u>Can Tal stop himself before he destroys everyone he has sworn he will protect? Scroll up to buy a copy and find out!</u></h2>

<p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0.66cm; line-height: 140%; "> <font color="#222222"><font face="Georgia, Utopia, Palatino Linotype, Palatino, serif"><font size="3" style="font-size: 11pt">I thoroughly enjoyed the stories in this short story collection. There is dry wit and suspense, thrills and chills, and best of all twists at the ends that I did not see coming. The writing is very effective in getting such large stories condensed into only a few pages and making them entertaining at the same time. I found myself comparing the writing style to Jeffrey Archer, one who is very well known today for not just his novels but also his short story collections. I hope Simon Marshland continues to publish his short stories as I will for sure become a regular reader of his work! I suggest anyone who enjoys short stories to check out this book. And if you don't normally, try this one for when you just have a few minutes here and there, you might just get hooked!</font></font></font></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0.66cm; line-height: 140%; "><span style="color: #666555; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: -webkit-auto; background-color: #eee9dd; ">Posted by&nbsp;</span><span class="fn" style="color: #666555; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: -webkit-auto; background-color: #eee9dd; ">Jennifer</span><span style="color: #666555; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: -webkit-auto; background-color: #eee9dd; ">&nbsp;</span>&nbsp;<span style="color: #666555; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; line-height: 20px; background-color: #eee9dd; ">:&nbsp;</span><a href="http://mommybookpicks.blogspot.com/search/label/Book%20Review" rel="tag" style="text-decoration: none; color: #888888; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; line-height: 20px; background-color: #eee9dd; ">Book Review</a><span style="color: #666555; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; line-height: 20px; background-color: #eee9dd; ">,&nbsp;</span><a href="http://mommybookpicks.blogspot.com/search/label/self-publishing%20month" rel="tag" style="color: #ff1900; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; line-height: 20px; background-color: #eee9dd; ">self-publishing month</a><font color="#222222"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Utopia, Palatino Linotype, Palatino, serif;"><font size="3" style="font-size: 11pt"><br></span></font></font></p> <title></title>
