Allie's back, Hooray! -- Sometimes Death is a better choice. Rating:
5 / 5
I love these books! Although Kindred Rites and Night Calls can be read as stand-alones, they are even more powerful when you read all of the story. Allie is tough, strong, smart, brave, and caring--- a great heroine. She is in even more danger in this book, for not just her life is in peril, her soul is too. A position as Death's apprentice is a much better choice than what awaits her otherwise. Skillful handling of myth, mountain lore and woodcraft, herbology, etc. Kimbriel has done her homework, and blends them all in with a strong plot, believable characters, and a clear clean writing style that delights. Enough terror to give you a jolt, enough strong writing to satisfy even the pickiest reader. READ THIS BOOK
A wonderful blend of fantasy, myth, and folklore Rating:
5 / 5
This book brings back the interesting and believable heroine of "Night Calls", Alfreda Sorenson. It is a wonderful blend of fantasy, myth and folklore that is well worth reading and rereading. It should appeal to a wide cross section of readers from young adults to senior citzens. I would recommend it highly to those people who are trying to find well written and life like characters. Alfreda, Marta, Cory and Shaw are folks I would enjoy meeting. I hope Ms. Kimbriel writes another one of their adventures soon. I can hardly wait!!
Oh where oh where is the sequel???? Rating:
5 / 5
