The Stone of Blood: ~ The Revised Edition
In a world where myth gives rise to legend, and history veils the truth... a charming and imaginative young boy named Toby and his resourceful cousin Colby uncover a dark secret buried deep beneath the grounds of an abandoned rock quarry. Join them on their exciting adventures in this fascinating coming of age story, as they suddenly discover the astonishing truths about their world! Truths that will change their lives forever! In the late 15th century along the coastal waters of France, a beautiful maiden with golden blonde hair and eyes of emerald green was murdered at the hands of her own people because of a spell cast upon her by a jealous queen. The young maiden s spirit was bound to a blood stone pulled from her ashes, and all those who were witness to the flames and fire were cursed to walk upon the earth as part man and part beast until the day she is set free. As the centuries passed, an Order was formed. A Christian Order bound by the curse to guard the stone until the maiden s spirit would be free once again. But there were those within the Order who did not share this belief and sought to usurp the stone for themselves, for to them the blood stone held everlasting life. As the Reign of Terror came to France, the very foundation of the Order was broken and the stone of blood was lost. For over 100 years the blood stone s light went out upon the world and whispers of a prophecy were spoken. A child would be born who would take up the stone at the dawning of a New Age... an age of the Order of the Wolf.

Being 75 years old and a successful musician, songwriter, author, and an avid reader, the “The Stone of Blood” by Tony Nalley is one of the best fact/fiction books I have ever enjoyed reading.
The ingenious way it was put together shows the gifted talent of the author with the power to hold one in suspense.
The story with it’s reality of truth and the intriguing suspense of the fiction and the unknown keeps one in constant anxiety of wanting to see where and how it would all end.
The authors unique storytelling ability made me feel I was right there with Toby and Colby on their rendezvous with fact and fiction. I can hardly wait for the next book to go to print.
The book took me back to stories like Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn; written by Mark Twain I enjoyed so much as a young boy.
The author has surely reached a plateau of success with his ingenious style of writing. I wish him the best in his writing career. I feel that he is well on his way.

I have to admit. It took me until about third of the book, to finally be awed by this story. It was like waking up from antihistamine induced slumber and waking up to see something incredible unfold in front of my eyes.
In fact, I've been having severe allergy attacks due to the wonderful Christmas tree and the medicine may be the cause of my being slightly sleepy during the first third of the book...
However, Tony has an awesome narrative, he paints a perfect childhood through Toby's voice and tells another darker tale through third person, painting Robespierre and French revolution in a much darker light. An intriguing cast of characters makes an appearance - that including Jesse James.
Fantastically, the adventure starts rolling at a great pace, camp outs, caves, werewolves... and the ending is equally awesome. This book is officially on my 'favorites' list.
Bits of history, horror and innocent fantasy mixed and molded into a superb book.
