More Happy Reviews for Night Calls....
I'm collecting Night Calls reviews for the POD, so here are a few more.
Shiny Book Reviews still likes my work--they gave Night Calls an A+ review!
"So there’s the value of hard work. There’s the value of personal sacrifice. There’s the value of human dignity. There’s a good deal about religion and spirituality, discussed in a quiet, calm way that I found particularly appealing. And there’s a rousing action-adventure going on throughout that makes you forget about all of the above until the book is over and you start thinking about how wonderful it all was before you turn back to read it all over again.
Bottom line? NIGHT CALLS is excellent. Truly, truly excellent. It’s a can’t-miss novel with heart, style and wit that will please all ages. Guaranteed.
Grade: A-plus."
And writer Rebecca McFarland Kyle, who is an Amazon.com Top 500 Reviewer, was kind enough to give Night Calls 5 stars.
"When a werewolf is killed outside the quiet village of Sun-Return, Allie Sorensson discovers two truths: there are beings beyond her ken and that she has inherited Gifts to fight them. This is a heavy burden for a girl on the verge of turning twelve, but Allie’s family paid the ultimate cost for not having a practitioner nearby.
As her lessons begin, Allie’s most important insight is discovering how little she knows. Missing a simple detail in identifying an herb used for medicine can cost a life. Lives are at stake – because there’s more dark creatures coming.
Funny how when you read a book that you haven't read in a long time, it feels like meeting an old friend again. You pick up where you left off and then you're lost in that world of wonder. In the case of a very well-written book like Night Calls, re-readings always show you something new. The first time I read Night Calls, I was fascinated by the supernatural element – werewolves in a pioneer setting. Now, I’m realizing the deeper lessons we can learn from the pioneers of Sun-Reach: communities must remain strong, land must be carefully stewarded, and no Gift should ever be wasted.
Night Calls will keep you up all night and leave you anticipating the sequel.
Anyone find any that I've missed? My POD window is running out.
