Dragon’s Dust: Book II-Part Two, The Black Castle, by Alfred Wohlmuth,

179 pgs. $14.95 on Amazon

This book is well crafted and the author’s skill in keeping the reader riveted is amazing. You might as well purchase all five books because you will want to see what happens next even though each book can be a stand-alone story.

I have read all the five books and cannot say enough about them. The authors skill in storytelling and creating a fantasy world is unmatched. In this book the main characters, Gyank and his friends have uncovered a devious plot to take over their country by the Red Lord. The last free castle is about to be surrounded with enemy ships. The castle had sent for help, but the ship was taken prisoner. It was up to the heroes to go for help, but the only way to get to the only country who could help was to go down a forbidden river called the Dead Branch from which everyone who has gone down it has disappeared never to be heard from again. The Dead Branch goes past the black castle.
