The Magic Carousel is the unique award-winning first book in this series the Brass Ring. It is an adventure story for tweens between 8 – 12 years old but will capture the heart of anyone. Rusty soon learns there is more to the crazy old man he calls Grandpa, and his adventure begins. Time travel, a brass ring, magical powers, a gateway to magic are what you will find in this magical adventure fantasy. There is fun, heartache, drama, tragedy, bullying and much more. The characters are relatable with the story is told in the first-person. The Magic Carousel is an exciting educational history lesson.

Small – Review by Jenni Bishop
What a fun story. Russell has to take his grandfather to the carousel at the park every day. The same routine…. One day, his grandfather opens an adventure and the fun starts there. This is an amazing history adventure that brings stories to life. Each chapter is a history lesson brought to life. A fun chapter book that will be a great addition to any child’s library. I will be adding it to our homeschool library.

Small – Review by Shelly Kittell
When Russell’s eccentric, storytelling grandpa moves in with the family, Russell loses his bedroom and has to take Grandpa to the carousel in the park every day. As if he doesn’t have enough to deal with already. He’s flunking fifth grade, bullied at school, and his dad’s drinking has made him feel like a failure. Russell dreams of being a firefighter but fears he isn’t courageous enough.
Then Russell rides a carousel horse with Grandpa. Thanks to a magic brass ring, he finds himself magically transported into the past, where he faces life-and-death challenges. Each ride is a new, risky adventure. If he’s not careful, he could be trapped in one of his wild adventures forever!

Descendants of Time and Death (The Gods’ Scion Book 2)) by Winnifred Tataw is a great young adult fantasy
The author tells a timeless story. In order to achieve in the future, you must be aware of and take lessons from the past, the author encourages you to acknowledge.The major characters are superbly developed by the author, who also builds a compelling narrative around them. Sometimes the secondary characters’ traits may have received a little too much attention, but it doesn’t take away from the overall impact of the story.
Every page was exciting and I couldn’t wait to see what would happen. The story really brings into their world.I couldn’t put the book down.

The Sisterhood of Secrets (The Gods’ Scion Book 4) by Winnifred Tataw is a great young adult fantasy.
In the story, Arcelia, her damaged family, and Prince Rodrick travel through the deserts and the Siesa Arid underground metropolis. Since she learned that her mother might be a murderer, everything has been odd, and she has been haunted by rumors of falsehoods and unfulfilled promises. She is hoping that a trip to Siesa Arid, the country of her twin cousins, will lead to the kind of family reunification she has been waiting for. Threats from a criminal organization disturb Arcelia and Rodrick, who are also troubled by moral dilemmas about right and wrong. The Archangel and God of Life assisted in all of this while keeping a close eye on it.
Every page was exciting and I couldn’t wait to see what would happen. The story really brings into their world.I couldn’t put the book down.

This is the 4th in a series, I absolutely feel like you CAN read this book without reading the others, I personally believe I would have followed along and enjoyed the story and been less confused at times, had I read the other books first. With that being said, let me clarify. This story is amazing. Our leading lady is awesome. She is well written and her world is well defined. This author has put forth amazing thought and detail into this world, building a place for us to get lost in. Her characters are strong and defined. Her plots are well thought out and executed. I highly recommend this series for readers of Fantasy, young and old, alike.

I was really surprised when I started reading this book. I hadn’t read the description or any reviews when I picked it up so was expecting one single, full length story. Instead, this book is a collection of brilliant fairy tales with a modern twist. Each of the stories was different and interesting and I loved discovering each of them. This is a new author to me and I think this was probably to best way to discover their work. Each story have an insight into their writing style and it was good to get a feel for the books. This was an enjoyable collection and I am looking forward to seeing what else this author will produce.

Marluck is a paladin of the Goddess of Fate and a good one at that, he was renowned for his strength, abilities and connection to his Goddess, he had fame, money and arrogance, or at least he was, while he was on his last mission to help a village being preyed upon by a God-beast, a mix of godling and wild beast who are more dangerous the older they become and during that battle, Marluck loses his Goddess’s favour, he loses his connection and everything that went along with it. Now, he is scraping by as an Oathbreaker, a fallen paladin who most people tend to avoid like the plague, the lowest of the low, how far he has fallen, but he is not the only one in this predicament, he manages to find others in the same situation, others who have fallen foul of their patrons and become Oathbreakers Guild.
While Marluck settles into life as an Oathbreaker, he becomes close to the others in the Guild as they share stories of their past lives and current woes while drowning their sorrows in cheap booze, but after one of the meetings, he is pulled aside and he is told of rumours about the possibility of redemption and a return to his position and he is more than tempted to do so. After meditating on his choices and deciding that he at least wants to try, he shares his plans with the others and not everyone agrees with him and fewer offer to go with him, in fact most of them deem him a madman, there are however, four others who decide to join him.
Fast forward to a few days later when the unlikely group have done their research about the possible holy sites where they can regain their deities favour, gathered supplies, settled any outstanding affairs and decided on a plan of action, the rag-tag group set off towards their first destination, but will they be able to find the redemption they desire, or will it prove to be a rumour alone and a wasted journey after all? This is a fantasy adventure which is a definite page turner throughout, as friends, enemies and indifferent beings combine into a humorous yet heart-warming journey of self discovery and entertaining mishaps which keep you hooked until the end.

5 Stars The Sisterhood of Secrets (The Gods’ Scion Book 4) by Winnifred Tataw
• The Sisterhood of Secrets is the fourth book in The Gods’ Scion Series and is a wonderfully written YA Fantasy/Sci-Fi that will have you turning the pages till the end. This is packed with action secrets, twists, lies and betrayal plus so much more. I recommend reading this series in order to get the full adventure and get to know the characters and what’s been going on. I was on the edge of my seat throughout the story trying to figure out what was going to happen next. We follow along with Princess Arcelia and Prince Roderick on their adventure as they fight for everything they know including lobe. I don’t want to give up to much. This is definitely my favorite yet and worth the read. I highly recommend reading to find out what happens next. I look forward to reading more from this Author

This is the first book that I have read by this author. It did not disappoint. I just couldn’t put the book down. I had to know what happened next! The world building and character building was so good I felt I was there. If you like fantasy books that will keep you turning the page, give this a shot!

I’m really not sure how I haven’t read anything by this author before, but I am SO glad that part of my life is over! I stayed up reading this book because I couldn’t put it down to do anything (sorry chores) and I don’t regret one bit of it. The way they pull you into the story is subtle but irreversible. The humor throughout this book will have you laughing out loud and disturbing your family members. The world is so beautifully crafted and vivid that I felt like I was on the adventure with Marluck and the Oathbreakers myself. Even if this doesn’t seem like your type of book, do yourself a favor and pick it up. You will find yourself enjoying it before you know what happened, so say goodbye to your to-do list for the day. I’m off to find more of this author’s books!

I truly did not believe I would enjoy this book. I am so glad I gave it a chance. Never judge a book by its cover.. I should have taken heed to my own advice. I will always read the synopsis before buying a book from now on. I gave this book four stars is because I struggled to follow along in the beginning. I got about 40% of the way through before I was invested.
The plot, the characters, everything about this novel was entertaining. I highly recommend to any fantasy lovers looking for a new read!

Marluck was a paladin whose divine favour was taken away for reasons he doesn’t understand. He has become an Oathbreaker. He is found by a group of people in a similar position as him, and they form a guild. Rumours come of a way to be redeemed, so Marluck and some friends decide to go adventuring.
I really enjoyed this book! There is action, adventure, and so many laughs. The characters are unique and each has their own hilarious charm. The worldbuilding is very well done, and the plot was intriguing and kept me interested from the beginning. I definitely recommend this book and hope there are sequels coming!

I honestly didn’t know what to expect out of this book other than I knew that it was way out of my typical genre choices (but I was really intrigued by the cover so…). I’m so glad I gave it a chance! Between the character development and the world-building I was enamored with Warren’s writing style. This is a fantasy novel that is action packed and laugh out loud funny and I had a hard time putting it down to get anything done because I wanted to know what was going to happen. Even if fantasy isn’t your “thing” give this book a try because it will have you laughing.

The Sisterhood of Secrets by Winnifred Tataw is the fourth installment of The Gods Scion Series. As always, I recommend you read this series in order. Winnifred once again sucks us into her unique and immersive world of fantasy. This time we follow Arcelia and Prince Rodrick as they navigate the city of Siesa Arid. This book is full of twists and turns, lies and deception. As the two fall for each other they are forced to fight for their love as well as their world.

Oathbreakers Anonymous by Scott Warren. This is not my favorite genre so I wasn’t too sure about this book but I actually loved it! Its so fast paced and it kept me up way late reading. Its a fantasy story about divinity ruling everything and without your divinity you are really nothing. Marluck was in good shape for a while and then he lost his divinity so he’s trying desperately to get it back. Going to the Oathbreakers Guild ( a place where people who have lost their divinity go to complain) and hearing all the talk Marluck hears there may be 4 places that they can find a key to regain his old life. Reading this book made me want to be friends with Marluck and I could relate to him so much. Its bad enough that Marluck has lost everything but he has no idea why. Will he be able to regain his life back or will he be a member of the Oathbreakers Guild forever? Read this fun, fast paced book to find out!

Want a story that will keep you up at night because you just have go know how it ends?? That is this that Book and so much more Absolutely well done Fantasy finds you with Marluck who had it all, until he didn’t. In this fantasy world divinity rules everything and if you lose it you lose everything. Those without their divinity meet in an anonymous guild called the oathbreakers guild and basically complain about their life with one another. Sure does it help to commiserate…yes but it wasn’t enough for Marluck, he wants his life back. There are s whispers that there are four locations that may hold the key to regaining all that they lost and Marluck and a few others can’t resist setting out to find them in a comical, colorful well done adventure. This book is so descriptive, the characters are relatable and you can’t help but want Marluck to succeed. The dynamic, humor and sarcasm is extremely well done and I laughed out loud so many times. You won’t be able to put this book down!

Honestly, when I saw the cover I was not sure it was going to be my style – but I am SO GLAD I gave it a shot, book reviews can really make a world of difference! This book had me in stitches, the settings were vivid, the characters are memorable and fantastic…just what a stellar book!
It starts right from the beginning, drawing you in with action and stupendous world building. There’s a vibe I never thought I’d enjoy with the fantasy style, but Marluck feels like he could be a best friend and you just want to see where he goes in his redemption story. Along the way, the Oathbreakers Guild shows how quirky, hilarious, and oddly relatable they are in such a fantastical journey. Truly a treat to read.

Diversity. Balance. Though this is the fourth book in the series it is the first book I have read by the talented Winnifred Tataw. While I was initially concerned about being confused about the story or not being able to understand what was going on I found I had no issues with understanding. This book was very informative about building the world and characters in the first several chapters. So, I am confident in saying that from experience this book could be read as a standalone, though I plan to go back and read the previous three soon. Told through several characters’ perspectives, it gives a well-rounded story. Alistine was once a part of the castle staff now with the crowned prince Rayden. Arcelia is the girlfriend of Prince Rodrick, Rayden’s brother. Rodrick, prince of Diar but also the Acolyte of Time. Nikolai the Acolyte of Life. While all the characters have their side story or own situations, they are all tied together to varying degrees. Arcelia is determined to prove that she is not like her family that she is not with Rodrick for power but for love, primarily to his mother Queen Riva. Nikolai has many duties as the acolyte of life, one being as an unbiased tiebreaker for the beings of balance. In past situations when he was needed, he was given details on who or why a person was so important to upcoming events but this time he has told very vague details. Leading him to wonder if he knows the person that could be the single sacrifice. When all things begin to change where will they fall in the balance of the world. What is better sacrifice one or many, did Nikolai make the right choice? Will Alistine and Rayden finally complete the process of her becoming his princess? How will Arcelia’s visit with her estranged family go? Was Alistine’s feeling that something wasn’t right worth worrying about? The world that the author creates is beyond fascinating in not only the mix of cultural diversity but with the blurred lines between the past and present. Honestly at first, I thought this was a story placed more in medieval times, or closer to that era, until the mention of “scrolling through my phone” and the realization that it was a more current story in terms of technology. The story reminded me in many ways of Game of Thrones in terms of one overlaying story but each character or set of characters having their own side story simultaneously to the main plot. I can’t wait to read the previous books and will be keeping my eyes out for what comes next.

This author is new to me and after reading this fantasy story added with lots of humor and characters you can’t forget. I throughly enjoyed the book and can’t remember ever reading a fantasy book that made me giggle and laugh so much throughout the pages. Marluck is such an important character and as you read the book you feel like he could be one of your friends or an adventurer/companion navigating through life. Looking forward to reading more from this author.

Very interesting book. At times I was confused with the changing points of view, and some of the vocabulary, but was able to quickly adapt and understand once I got about a paragraph in on each chapter. Princess Arcelia and Prince Rodderick are fighting for their love, their families and their people. Rodderick’s mother annoys me in that she gives her son and ultimatum regarding his prince title. Arcelia’s family are something else. All of the lies they tell and the secrets they keep, I am proud of Arcelia for standing up to them finally. I don’t see them moving past the most recent debacle quickly but it seem like her mom is devastated at the turn in their relationship. Arcelia’s aunts can go jump off a cliff with that nasty behavior. The world in which this author creates is interesting and gives the story life. This is my first book in the series, and while I was lost on some aspects, and missing out on some things, I was still able to grasp the story. I recommend reading this series in order.

A new and refreshing story telling of a series of tales. The different stories tell you about the magic within the life of the characters; some make you feel intense desperation and angst, while others make your heartbeat a little bit faster and stronger. A unique and fantastic way to read, this book makes you feel like a child again, in bed waiting for your moms voice to relate a good night’s book.

This was my first book by this author, but it definitely will not be my last! I found this to be a fantastic laugh out loud fantasy novel with a ton of heart. The author did a wonderful job of weaving together memorable characters and descriptive settings. I found the story drew me in right from the start, jumping right into action and kept my attention to the very last page. I loved the dynamics between the adventurers and the author did a great job of the longing they had to want to recover their divinity, especially Marluck, who had no idea why he lost favor and is desperate to regain it. This is a great book for anyone who is a fantasy fan who loves humor.

The Sisterhood of Secrets (The Gods’ Scion Book 4) by Winnifred Tataw. This is the 4th installment in the Gods’ Scion Series and it was amazing. I highly recommend reading this series in order to better understand the plot and characters. Its the continuing story of Princess Arcelia & Prince Rodderick and their quest to make their world a better place. Arcelia is trying to get away from her moms deeds and the past. They are also trying to make their own way in the world after getting married against her families wishes. When Arcelia is found to be in danger, Rodderick will do whatever it takes to protect her. Will Rodderick be able to save Arcelia and will they be able to protect their relationship against all kinds of outside forces? This is a fast paced young adult, fantasy read that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

When Russell’s eccentric, storytelling grandpa moves in with the family, Russell loses his bedroom and has to take Grandpa to the carousel in the park every day. As if he doesn’t have enough to deal with already. He’s flunking fifth grade, bullied at school, and his dad’s drinking has made him feel like a failure. Russell dreams of being a firefighter but fears he isn’t courageous enough.
Then Russell rides a carousel horse with Grandpa. Thanks to a magic brass ring, he finds himself magically transported into the past, where he faces life-and-death challenges. Each ride is a new, risky adventure. If he’s not careful, he could be trapped in one of his wild adventures forever!
This is the award-winning first story in the Brass Ring Series.
