Talisman or Crucifix? When You're Dealing With Bloodsuckers, Use Whatever Works!

A talisman is an object, especially a figure carved or cut at a time regarded as astrologically favorable. It is believed to have magical protective qualities. If you're into vampires (and it seems these days everyone is) Brenda Pandos has authored The Talisman Trilogy.





Ms. Pandos did not begin her work life as a writer. For personal reasons, she had to make a major career change. In my opinion, she picked a fantastic work-at-home job and got started on the right track by picking a super popular genre: paranormal romance and urban fantasy. Her books are mostly read by young adult females. So! OUT with the smelly garlic and crucifix. ~ IN with the cool looking talisman. Hey! When you're at war with ruthless bloodsuckers, you use whatever works!  :)
Each book is about 300 pages.

Entertainment for Children : "Redwall" by Brian Jacques

"Redwall" by Brian Jacques is for children (and adults who have a child's heart). 😊 

- Great as Animated Series or Book Series


Redwall was published in 1987, and it propelled the author Brian Jacques (1939 - 2011) into international stardom.

If you don't want to read the book series, then watch the animated series. Check YouTube. The hero is a mouse, named Matthias. Read the books or watch the series with your children or by yourself. I watched it by myself. It was fantastic!! My daughter read some of the books. She said they were fantastic!

She likes to read!  I like to watch the animation.  

We were both very pleased. 😊

But I'm not the one choosing. You are! So here are a few picks recommended by a professional reviewer and moi! Maybe you'll see something that interests you.
