Wow, I'm always up for supernatural abilities in a story. Would definitely love to see these come to play! Too bad about the editing though but I hope it won't stand in my way! Thanks for the succinct review.

I read the sample and felt the book was real and showed potential. Your review is encouraging and I think I may try it out

Ooooh! This book sounds so interesting. The mix of 'Locators, Shimmeras, Faceters, Seers, Knowers and Illusionists' in one family and at such a defining time in history...Regardless of the grammatical errors I will have to get this book.

Thank you for your review!
This book sounds like it combines a lot of elements I like in a novel: history, sci-fi/fantasy, and humor. I would be interested to read this.

The premise sounds intriguing, although the lack of vulnerabilities may stretch my imagination a little too much. The grammatical errors could be a turn-off for me as well. Still, it will probably be worth a read. Thank you for the helpful review.
