About the author

Jeffrey Allen Davis was born on March 2, 1975, in St. Charles, MO.The youngest of three boys, he was sheltered by his loving mother. Instead of going out to parties when he was in high school, he stayed at home and watched 80s ninja movies or played RPGs with his fellow geeks (a term that he uses affectionately). These experiences have found their way into his writing. His first book, "Invasion of the Togakura", was released in 2003 by Publish America. It's sequel, "Klandestine Maneuvers", was published by the same company in 2005. After a five-year hiatus from publishing, Davis founded a new press for his third book, "Lily's Redemption." A rewrite of his first book, retitled "Invasion of the Ninja," was released in 2013.

Davis is a licensed Baptist preacher and lives in the St. Louis area with his wife, daughter and two stepchildren.

Reviews

[Raymond Teodo · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very well written, as to be expected by something produced by Jeffry Allen Davis. However, I couldn't help thinking whether this short story ought to have been the proper prologue for Quest for Yoshi, rather than be kept separate as its own short story...

I read all of Davis's 'adventure chronicle' books, having become a fan some time ago. this short story addition fits in well, adding to the continuing storyline nicely. But, as another reviewer recommended, don't start with this one! I definitely recommend starting with book one, and working your way through the whole series. Davis's characters are well written, the stories are an enjoyable read, and I look forward to more books in the series.
