Book Review: The Genesis Tree
The final book in the The Tethered World series and I’m still torn over whether this is the best one. At the very least it’s a toss up between this book and the first book. The Genesis Tree starts out with the threat of the Tethered World being exposed to the world up top. Very quickly things get complicated and our main heroes, Sadie and Brady get separated to go their own paths to help protect their friends and family. The feel of this final book is very different from the first two. This story hones in all the growth and how far the characters have come so far and then throws…

Book Review- The Flaming Sword
I will be completely upfront, I did not care for this book as much as the first.

Book Review- The Tethered World
Ah this book made me smile. The story telling is seeped in my favorite things. Narnia references throughout, nuanced characters, an exciting new world to explore, The Tethered World took me a while to get through because I was enjoying myself and didn’t want to rush. Sadie Larcen is one of five siblings, the oldest in a homeschooling family. Her family is the best representation I have ever seen in fiction of a homeschooling family. They take care of each other, they squabble, and the older ones find out they have to rescue their parents from Big Foot. “What if Myths are Real” is only my favorite writing topics ever. I appreciated…

Worlds Collide: A Fairy Tale
Available on Kindle This is my first book. And I am thrilled to be re-releasing it for Kindle with a beautiful new cover designed by Annie J Designs. If you haven’t known me for years, a bit of back story. In 2006 I wrote Worlds Collide: A Fairy Tale and to this day I am very proud of this book. If you’ve known me a really long time, you’ll know some of these characters I have been developing as long as I could tell a story. This is my ‘tome’ as it came to be called…the printed edition coming at 701 pages it was a deserved title. To those of you who over the years have…
