I found Rebel (Book 2 of the saga) to be every bit as funny, thrilling and informative as Prairie Magic (Book 1). I loved learning more about the meaning and uses of Tarot cards and Rune stones, and soaked up instruction on proper applications of essential oils and the benefits of drinking fresh juices. As with Prairie Magic, Rebel's fast-paced storyline kept me on the edge of my seat and the comedy held me in stitches! I was so pleased to learn the Coalition of Visionary Resources (COVR) agreed with my high opinion by awarding Rebel as Winner of Visionary Fiction.

I've become fond of the characters, who I now consider as friends. As expected, Tokada Good Elk was enchanting. His interactions with Victor Garcia were compelling. Together, the two men create a strange variation of The Odd Couple. Christopher Columbus was a hoot. I hope we hear more from him in Book #3. As for Rebel - well, that beautiful black gelding just stole my heart. His encounter with Liz Carrington (at the end of the story) was priceless. He DOES tend to live up to his name!

Rebel picks up right where Prairie Magic left off. Although the saga is easy to read, the storylines move quickly with lots of twists and turns. The characters develop as the plot thickens. You'll definitely want to read these books in order, so go back and read Prairie Magic before cracking this exciting novel. After savoring both, I promise - you'll be glad you did!

My favorite section of Rebel, The Kentucky Derby, was a side-splitting comedy. Still, Tokada's interview with the new reporter offered serious food for thought. The mystery of Patwin and the secret envelope kept me in suspense all the way to the exciting end. I can't wait for the next book!

I would recommend the award-winning, highly acclaimed Adventure Seekers Saga for readers who are interested in Mind/Body/Spirit subjects. Although informative reads, Prairie Magic and Rebel are entertaining stories filled with humor, adventure and contemplative concepts. The books seem appropriate for all ages. While there are a few suggestions of adult matters, the material probably still qualifies as G-Rated. With no swear words or obnoxious scenarios, it's good, clean fun - 'safe' for your teenaged daughter. If all this sounds good to you, I imagine you'll wind up becoming a fan, too.
