Official Review: The Quetzal's Skull by Margaret Gill

[Gravy]

I'm loving the link with Quetzalcoatl. That whole section of mythology seems to be underused.

Thank you for your review.

Since I have enough trouble keeping up with the number of books I want to read, I appreciate anyone that can help me narrow down what books I'd like to give my children to read. I think that in this case, the issues with the book will work in our favor. I'll get a chance to expose my daughter to issues in another part of the world while stressing the importance of presenting your best work to the world.

I would definitely read this book if I can get hold of the 1st one. Well done on book of the day.

It's interesting that a book of this genre can touch up on so many world issues so deeply, but if I ever read this I would definitely go for the first book first!

Great review! I like the idea of adventure and black magic while also addressing some serious issues. Too bad about the errors though. Hopefully those have been fixed now.

As I love adventure and fantasy books, this seems like a great read. The basic plot line of this book already looks very fascinating, so I'll definitely check it out.

[Shreyoshi Sen]

The review is quite interesting. I love mysterious fantasies. Would love to read Gray's adventure.

Despite the flaws pointed out with the editing; the story sounds rich and exciting. Packed with mysterious characters and issues that our main character have to learn or overcome it is most likely worth the read just to join in the magic of the world.

Although this book is for young adults it looks to me as a good read even for senior citizens like me. Costa Rica is a place I haven't even considered visiting. But I may have to reconsider. Congrats #BOTD.

There is much good to be said about Margaret Gill's writing and The Quetzal Skull in particular. To begin, Margaret knows how to weave a delicious story that will captivate her youthful audience as well as those adults that enjoy reading the Young Adult Fiction genre of books. The Quetzal Skull follows, Narwhal, as part two in a series and is superbly written.

The Quetzal Skull relates the continuing tale of Gray, a young man on the verge of discovering his deepening psychic gifts and his place in the world as a shaman. After his brush with death, in Narwhal, Gray goes to the mainland to attend art school. He intends to study art that is, but it seems once again fate and prophecy have a plan for Gray which is outside of his understanding and control. Kidnapping is the least of the lengths his enemies will go in their efforts to maintain their drive for power and control. They perceive Gray as a threat to their plans and won't stop coming after him until they have eliminated the threat he poses, permanently. Follow Gray around the globe into the heart of myth and mystery, as he strives to solve secrets locked in the distant past and fulfill his destiny.

Margaret does an excellent job of depicting and explaining concepts of psychic energy work and shamanism that accurately portray the teachings, methods and practices of modern and historic shamanic practitioners. She is able to capture in words and through story telling the atmosphere of time and place, which combine to create a flavor of danger and increased tension. Her research and insight into traditional shamanic roles and practices, as well as into the healing or mystical properties of certain herbs and the political intrigue used in her story, is to be commended. There is much to be learned, about our world and its societies, which she has cleverly revealed in the story or used as a device to develop her plot.

Exciting and enlightening, full of physical and spiritual dangers, The Quetzal Skull takes Gray and the reader on an adventure of thrilling proportions. Discover wonder and mystery in the crystal skull of Quetzal. A cast of memorable characters waits for you. You will not want to put this book down.

I haven't read books in a while. Upon seeing this book, had this all feels that makes me want to read the prequel.

My heart is pounding from the beginning of the story and made me think how the author thinks to see where the plot is going to. I wasn't successful, I never predicted it right! This is an awesome book and yeah, I am going to be looking for the prequel and for the next book. Great job!

I rarely read or watch stories which indulge in black magics, witch crafts and so fort. However there still the moral of the story that patience is a virtue and the bad never wins over the good. Anyway this book is highly recommended based on the official review for readers who love exciting adventure compose of magics and those sort of things.
