Well, same here, though I don't have a personal blog. <br /><br />This book was a God-sent message for my wife and I during a real trying time in our life. We looked forward to reading a chapter each day, following the counsel of God's Word for the day. <br /><br />I would recommend that a special study be made in church for those undergoing intense trials. The focus on God and His glory is not panacea but a real balm to the paining heart, mind and body. <br /><br />God bless you to posting this log.

I can say this with absolute confidence as I know the real author. She has it up for free where everyone can read it: http://www.fictionpress.com/s/2518243/1/The-Dragons-Curse<br /><br />Please do not simply brush my comment aside. The story has been up since 2008. I do agree that it is a great read for kids and adults, but the fact that it was stolen is distressing for the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5797552.post-91348205025417117282012-12-31T13:38:48.131-06:002012-12-31T13:38:48.131-06:00That's good to know.
