Written by father-son team Jason Killian Meath and Aidan Patrick Meath http://jasonkillianmeath.com/with illustrations by Kirk Parrish www.kirksart.com.

Michelle Munger - New Bookcover

Hi everyone! I wanted to ask everyone a favor. A friend of mine has self-published his series books and needs a good review or two. I'm not asking you to go give him stellar 5 star reviews, but if you could go give him an honest review of his books and a nice rating. Please no trollers and please no 1 stars unless you think it's absolute crap not worthy of publishing. We are all friends here and one favor deserves another. Which means that if you write a review for him, he and I both will write reviews towards anyone else's book. We all know how hard it is to get ANY review in the beginning, so please help!
Here's the link. Coincidentally, I also did the cover art. :) He has several stories out which I also did the cover art for, so if you can take a look at those books, we'd appreciate. Most of them can be downloaded from smash words or amazon. The link is to Amazon. even if you don't read the entire thing, you can read part of it and give a judgment from that. Cankered Gold is free from smash words, the others are either free or 99 cents. Just look for them.
