Kath Wise: Such a great story. Sure there are some errors but with so much happening in a story such as this it is sometimes difficult to keep up. I absolutely loved it. Dear author never give up on writing, you know how to create a whole world with just words. A world you can easily get drawn in to. Thankyou
