I loved the read. The rhyme and rythm were excellent and I loved the story. It would seem that the kingdom has replaced one problem with a bigger one.

A poetic story shared in an unusual manner. Full of lessons of life though depicted by fiery fire of a weird bird, tormenting lives of stronger species of mankind. What a great irony! A beautiful display of creativity, with wonderful rhymes. I like the ingenuity.

All i can say is that I'm speachless.You are very talented. It is not easy to tell a story with a poem(in my opinion).You seem to do it effortlessly.I likedthe story along with the serenade.

    did you self publish your book yourself on amazon? if I can be so bold to ask do you make decent income from it?
reply by the author on 28-Jun-2012
    Hi! Yes, I did self publish, after getting nowhere with publishers and agents. Then I read several articles by author's who'd been successful with their self-published books, and been offered publishing deals as a result, so I thought it was worth trying.

    At the price I charge, it doesn't make me any real money, but I'm hoping to get my name out there. Then perhaps I can charge more for my next novels!
