Raphael: The Kaiyo Stories

by Cliff Cochran

The veil to Eden is ever so slightly lifted. Its vast waters and endless lands full of life are briefly seen by a young man who went where he wasn't supposed to go. The gates to Eden are guarded by terrifying creatures, and the penalty for trespassing is death. The young man is lost and trapped in the dreary pathway between worlds. Kaiyo, a two-and-a-half-year-old grizzly, and his human family are asked to find a hiker who entered the Montana wilderness and didn't come back. What started as a routine search changes when the McLeods realize they are being followed. The evil one wants the hiker, but Kaiyo and his family get to him first. Bitter enemies are made, captives defect, and battles are fought in the ancient war between unseen nations.

After winning the first book in a giveaway, the Kaiyo stories I knew I had to read the second, Raphael. I couldn’t have read this book during a better time. It’s such a fun, mysterious, adventurous story, that really takes your mind off of things going on in the real world. The characters in these stories are so easy to love and I’m always left closing the book not wanting it to end. I gave this book a 4/5 ⭐️ and I can’t wait to see what other stories the author writes.
