Reviews
"Ormond's
observations and ability to tell an exciting yarn are very convincing;
this alone, aside from the subject matter and ideas exploited in the
book, will be enough to have the reader turning pages without wishing to
put the book down." Rudolf Loewenstein,The School Librarian (Winter
2014)

plenty of action, history for the history buffs out there, and just lots
of fun!" Ana, Ready Me Away
