"This story is my definition of the embodiment of outstanding literature. It is solidly written, seductive, and absolutely sublime in its emotional impact. Will and Bran are two fully realized protagonists who staked out a corner of my heart and proceeded to set up residence there where they will be remembered for a long time to come."Lisa for Author Interviews, Book Reviews, and More
