\u201cLittle House on the Prairie\u201d meets \u201cBack to the Future\u201d. Wonderful!<\/em><\/a>
\nBy Frederick H. Crook \u201cF.H. Crook\u201d<\/a> on June 27, 2015
\nFormat: Paperback<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I had the privilege of reading this story prior to its release, receiving it as a free copy in exchange for an honest review.<\/em><\/p>\n

The characters are well-written and with such heart and sincerity that they are all quite authentic and believable. Every bit of the story is written with care and literary grace. The plot itself is a wonderful weaving together of historical fiction and science fiction. Think of it as \u201cLittle House on the Prairie\u201d meets \u201cBack to the Future\u201d and you may begin to understand it.<\/em><\/p>\n

DeKelver has written a real winner here and I look forward to her next adventure. This is definitely a 5-star read, kids. Don’t pass it up.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n
