Reviews

[Douglas Hayes · Rating 5 out of 5]

Just enjoyed reading these 2 books and wish there was more. Fast paced light reading believable characters and just enough folklore to allow for the unexpected. I

Only hope these characters are continued as these seem to be rich with possibilities for other mysteries and adventures in this cursed land.
