This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways.
I was given a copy of this book and I am leaving my honest review voluntarily.

What a concept Brad came up with and executed. A villain, children made into slaves at the age of 6 in mines, never seeing sunlight till adulthood. Stories of a kingdom with a fair King. Are Chance and Chelly part of a prophecy?

It was well written, easy to follow, and a great story for all.

Tho the ending speaks to me of more books coming?? ( )
