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. The story of Talon takes place in a mythical world where the cast system is alive and well. I have always been fascinated by cultures that are open and honest about the cast system. 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 ...
