A Changing View on Dragons

A Changing View on Dragons

I’d like to extend a warm welcome to our guest poster today, Danielle Kazemi, author of the Dragon’s Fire Series which is now out in paperback. Take it away, Danielle! In recent centuries there has been a lot of negative things said about dragons. They’ve been described as man killing, princess snatching, gold hoarding creatures. You’ve been told they come after humans in the middle of the night, stealing them away for a quick meal. Numerous tales have been told about how they do little more than terrorize villages. Nothing  could be further from the truth.  Their true purpose comes from knowing what dangers lurk around us. Mysterious creatures hide in the shadows all around us known as the Unseen. They rob us of our inherent energy, leaving us as nothing more than shell of a person once they’ve finished with us. Humans are unable to see them – at… Read more »

Review for Beyond the Eyes – By Rebekkah Ford

Review for Beyond the Eyes – By Rebekkah Ford

Review for Beyond the Eyes – By Rebekkah Ford “I never thought I would die at the age of seventeen, so when I received the death message, I was a little freaked out.”  So begins the young adult novel, Beyond the Eyes, by Rebekkah Ford.  I admit my interest was peaked by this first sentence.  It’s well crafted and really makes me want to read on. Paige is a seventeen year old senior in high school whose world is turned upside down with the arrival of Nathan.  Wait, let’s back up!  I know everyone likes to get to the romance, but hey, this book has plot too! Paige is not your normal everyday girl.  For one, she’s alone mores of the time even though she’s not even eighteen yet.  Her mom works as a traveling nurse and her father was killed when she was little.  She has a lot of… Read more »
