Talon: The Windwalker Archive: Book 1 Review

Wow! Talon: The Windwalker Archive had my attention within the first few pages. The writing is fluid and flows well. The story is engaging and evokes emotion from the reader throughout.

Throughout the story we see Talon struggle with the way others are treated. He knows it's wrong but he also knows if people try ...

I thought what a great way to discover a new author. The Book of Adam- Town Secrets is geared more towards the young adult group. I still enjoyed it and ...
