The Farwalker’s Quest

I am not ordinarily a fantasy fan, but I recently agreed to give a quote for The Farwalker’s Quest, so I spent a rainy afternoon immersed in the intriguing world Joni Sensel created. My quote read “Rich in characters, with a unique setting and surprising relevance, it’s a profound, touching, and wise tale about the important things in life: success and failure, courage and fear, absence and loss, trust, loyalty, and hope. On a dangerous journey, the headstrong Ariel, her brave young friend Zeke, and the appealingly mysterious Scarl discover the importance of remembering where we came from and knowing where we’re going. Their story is the story of all of us, carrying hope and crafting the future.” That’s the long version. Let me say to you that you’ll love the book—the fast action, many surprises, and delightful characters—and you won’t be able to wait for the sequel, out next spring.
