The novel’s cover is striking, and caught my attention immediately! I was shocked at how quick I was drawn into the story, or brought into another realm. My imagination was set on fire from the beginning, and I was engrossed in Ryan’s writing! His dialogue flows with the ease of a brushstroke, and he paints magnificent mental pictures! I also love the time period setting. It is fantastic! I cannot wait to see what awaits Buc and Eld! I was more than impressed with this work!
