  • The Wooden Seed (Conjure Man #1) on Nov. 29, 2011
    star star star star
    "The Wooden Seek" is the first in a trilogy. Cyn has promised me she would soon finish the third in this soon to be trilogy. I found this book to be fast moving and very well written. There is no end to the writer's imagination and cleverly written twists. I loved it and would recommend it all readers. Thanks Cyn for this great book. I am ready now for the second of this series.
  • Running to the Sun: Conjure Man #2 on Dec. 14, 2011

    It didn't take long to read this book because(if I may use a worn cliche) it was a real page-turner. There were times if I were an animal I'm sure the hackles on my neck would have raised with fear. I congratulate Cyn on another great thriller. Keep them coming Ms Bagley
  • The Prophecy (An Estilorian Short Story) on Dec. 14, 2011

    The Prophecy was a great read and I must say the characters are well developed and believable. I give thumbs up to Raine Thomas, a great author.
  • Healing the Rift: Conjure Man #3 on Jan. 04, 2012

    Cyn Bagley punctuated her trilogy of stories with "Healing the Rift." I found the story enjoyable with great dialogue. It is obvious that Mrs. Bagley loves her stories. She nurtures them like children seeking maturity. Great job Cyn!

    I enjoyed this book. I'm not much into the vampire scene but this one made me want more. It ended much too soon, but I enjoyed it. Write more Steph Anne
