Brooke enlists the aid of his love's intriguing and extraordinary shaman uncle to help save her. Only they don't only have to save her, but save the world from being changed forever. Reviews "This is a must-read book from Frank Talaber. I couldn't put it down! But as much as I wanted to know what happens I never wanted it to finish. Great book!" Faith Curtis "I was touched when I sensed the author's profound reverence for trees; especially when I read his descriptions of the 'sobbing trees' as they were axed down. This novel has the ring of an epic 'Lord of the Rings' journey -this is one journey that I'll always remember!" Stephanie Bridgeman/It's A Funny Kind Of Thing That Happened "After being stranded twenty kilometers from the nearest road at the tip of Rose Spit, Haida Gwaii, and having to push his spanking new SUV a few kilometers along the beach before the tide came in and we ran out of booze, my first reaction on being asked to write a back cover blurb was, "over my dead body." Some people will do anything to get an endorsement." Susan Musgrave/Cargo Of Orchids Frank Talaber/Writer by Soul. A natural storyteller, whose compelling thoughts are freed from the depths of the heart and the subconscious before being poured onto the page. Literature written beyond the realms of genre he is known to grab readers; kicking, screaming, laughing or crying and drag them into his novels. Enter the literary world of Frank Talaber.

Autorenporträt
Frank Talaber lives in Chilliwack, BC. He currently has twelve novels released, most set in BC, including Victoria, Haida Gwaii, Vancouver, and Prince George. He's written in many genres: Urban Fantasy, Science Fiction, Spiritual, comedy, Erotica, and Romance. Well, anything that calls to him, basically! As well as the novels, he can boast over eighty published short stories, articles, over sixty blogs and ten live interviews. Frank is also published by The Wild Rose Press, one of the largest traditional Publishing houses in the world, with "his other half" Felicity Talisman. People who have read Frank's books describe him as a natural storyteller who writes like his soul is on fire and his pencil is his voice crying out. They go further to say that they find his books grabbingly intense and hilarious at times, screaming everyday life from such a realistic viewpoint you're drawn into his world, unable to stop; almost cursing that they can't set the book down, page after page. Frank takes great pride in the realism of his work, painstakingly visiting most of the locations, (obviously, only the "real-life" ones!) and he is so thorough that many readers have remarked that they can hear, taste, visualize, smell and feel the essence of the place. "It really is like being there" one remarked. There isn't a greater compliment to be made. Literature written almost beyond genres, whose compelling thoughts are freed from the depths of the heart and subconscious before being poured onto the page. Or, as he often says, "you don't have to be mad to be a writer, but it sure helps". He writes in urban fantasy, science fiction, crime, spiritual, romance, erotica and comedy genres. Well, anything that calls to him, basically! "To be honest, I loved to write novels, like a rock star that loves to thrill an audience and get that cheering response. That I've moved them, made them laugh, cry, scream and dream. But overall entertain them in a way they have never been entertained before."
