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>

Bessie's book should be obligatory for anyone considering a creative life. The
story is rich in detail, funny, and honest. Bessie has compromised no more than
he had to, and reviews a rich and sometimes desperate life as a creative erson
who sustained himself by wit and wile. I hope that I'll be able to say as much
about my own. / from the forward by PETER COYOTE, Emmy-winning actor / ET, Erin Brocovich, etc.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:11pt;"><font size="2"><span style="font-size:10px;"><br /></span></font></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:11pt;"><font size="2"><span style="font-size:12px;"></span></font></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:11pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><em><span style="font-size:12px;">"Reeling
