KINDLE EDITION SPECIAL - FREE TODAY, Forts Fathers and Sons - Special Edition by Steven Novak

http://www.amazon.com/Forts-Special-Fathers-Sons-ebook/dp/B004SD07TY/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&sr=8-6&qid=1372796198


My review:

I found "Forts, Fathers and Sons" to be a delightful story. The reader is immediately involved in the lives of the main characters before they are thrust upon a journey which forever changes their lives. Like Alice and her adventures through the looking glass, the children are caught up in the machinations of war and conquest as they try to find their way home. Alien creatures, prophesies, strange powers and magic promises a thrilling ride. A must read!
