Haven (Desolace Series II)
Blurb:
Katie finds that the town of Haven is not what it seems as she continues
her journey across the strange world of Desolace, searching for her
friend, Julie. During her travels Katie makes new friends, but also
makes a horrifying discovery. The creatures that she thought to exist
only in myths and legends, while she grew up on Earth, are very real on
this world! The only bright spot is a message that Katie receives from
Julie, but the message is filled with a sense of urgency. Will she find
Julie in time? Or will the darkness of this world consume Julie first,
leaving only a useless husk of flesh behind?

My Review:
5 Stars
Great book! I look forward to the next!, January 17, 2013
Haven was a great read! I had not read the 1st book Desolace beforehand, but I have to say I was not confused at all nor did I feel I was lacking info. to enjoy this book. The author gave us plenty of background & details to put us right into the story. I enjoyed the characters & watching their relationships progress. There was plenty of action, magic, & just enough drama. I'll be sure to read the next book to see what happens next!

About the Author:
I
spent most of my youth in rural Ohio and began writing stories at an
early age. Many of these early attempts at story-telling were inspired
by mysteries, such as those found in the old Hardy Boys books and the
cartoon antics of Scooby Doo. As I entered my teenage years I began to
drift away from writing stories, instead picking up my pencil to compose
lyrics for heavy metal songs because my new dream was to become a
musician. That vision remained hopeful for many years after my high
school graduation, but like most dreams of this nature it died out as I
became older.
After working several menial jobs through the years that followed, my thoughts again began to turn toward writing books. Inspired by my favorite author, Stephen King, I took an online creative writing course and slowly began to develop my skills. In late 2010 I was given a violent shove, both by the job market (which was horrible to say the least, and still is) and by the persistent encouragement of close friends, to pick up my pen and begin writing again.
In early 2012 I gave birth (that's almost what it felt like) to my very first published book, Desolace. Finally having a completed novel in my hand was the best feeling in the world for me, giving me a sense of accomplishment I had waited a lifetime for. Since then it has gotten easier for me with each book I have published. Since the initial release of Desolace two more of my novels have been published and another has just been completed. This last work is the first book I've written outside of the Desolace Series, an occult horror novel titled Destined for Darkness. Also in production is my current novel, City of the Dead, which will be the fourth installment of the Desolace Series and is projected to be released in September of 2013.
