• Everyone of the stories captured something wonderful, survival, love, hate, passion, faith, hero's and heroine's, villians and nature. I enjoyed the stories all by themselves, but it was so cool to read the history of the world through the travels of the "Blessing Stone", and to see it come full circle and back out again to enchant someone else's life. I really enjoyed every story and every character, I think most people will...so read on!. —Debbi, Revere, MA (Amazon.com)
