Talisman (The Talisman Series Book 1) by Tam DeRudder Jackson – Review by Amanda Haller-Doris

Talisman by Tam DeRudder Jackson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I had not read any of the author’s previous books before this one, something I will be remedying immediately; as this was a fantastic start to what will be an explosive series. The author did an amazing job with the character development of Rowan and Alyssa and how their bond and connection grows. You feel the hesitancy of Alyssa to just take at face value what she is being told and Rowan’s urgency to help her feel safe, but also needing her to understand what he is telling her. The author’s background and understanding of Celtic mythology in the modern world gave me Percy Jackson vibes, but with a much more adult twist. Being from Montana, I do also enjoy a solid story that takes place here as well. If you are looking for an amazing Celtic mythology story that that been modernized, full of steamy romance, and vivid action and adventure, this will be a series for you!
