Reviews

[James Sullivan · Rating 5 out of 5]

A book is only as good as the emotions that it stirs in you. Love, heartache, fear...a cacophony of sensations are imbued throughout THE TAKING. From the opening chapter to the climactic ending, author Traci Robison masterfully weaves a tale of dark temptations that will forever change the life of the narrator.

I really didn't expect this book to be what it was about. Traci is an expert story teller and her description is amazing. Loved listening to her read from one of the sequels.
