When I saw this book available for review, I was intrigued. There are not many stories about the Tower of Babel, and especially not for kids. There is high adventure as Bella and her new friend, Zion race to the top of the tower, chased by wolves and an evil […]
Chaney Rose never expected to shake the world. Yet she did just that. Shook the world of a calloused police detective. Of an out-of-work minister. Of a wannabe mobster. She was an enigma, with street smarts and compassion. With a moral compass slightly skewed and yet was there. Her grandfather […]
