Description
Ben always thought his grandfather's bedtime stories about the darklings were make-believe, but now the darklings have invaded his hometown and only Ben can stop them. When a mysterious package arrives containing his grandfather's old journal and a crystal pendant, Ben knows he's found the way to stop the darklings. Unfortunately, the journal is encrypted and Ben is running out of time.
With the help of his best friend Sara, Ben must unlock the journal's secrets and find a way to banish the evil darklings before they destroy the town and kill everyone he loves. But does Ben have the strength to face his greatest fears? If he succeeds, he'll have to sacrifice everything just to survive. If he fails, Ben will not only lose everything he loves, he will also become the thing he fears the most. 150 pages
What reviewers have to say:
5 Stars: I adored reading this book. The characters aren't wafer thin, they have depth and history. The Darkling Wind was a wonderful read, with wonderfully written scenes which pulled you in and made you believe it was truly happening... A great love vs evil story... I'd recommend this book to anyone, young or old. It's a feel good story you won't be able to put down. -Smashwords Review
4 Stars: This is a very well-written, good-versus-evil story that will capture a young reader's imagination. The main character has to deal with both emotional and physical challenges that I expect will make the reader pause and wonder how they would react in those circumstances. I look forward to hearing my daughter's comments after she's finished the story. -Smashwords Review
5 Stars: Highly Enjoyable Read!I HIGHLY recommend this read! I very rarely go online to write reviews... It's certainly a very different story type, nothing typical... it is much more interesting than the Synopsis makes it sound. Please do give it a chance. -Nook Review
5 Stars: Jamie Sedgwick has [proven] to be a first rate writer... that rare ability to combine original and intriguing characters, locations and plot into a work of pure perfection.- Goodreads Review
