Reviews for The Paladin Prophecy: Book One
Mark Frost has created a wonderfully inventive and exciting tale where one exceptional teenager must discover the truth about his family ... and himself. The mysteries are unexpected and the mythology is impressively original. A remarkably suspenseful ride. I can't wait for the next instalment!
