The editor was nowhere to be found. This is a great story and one I hope to publish with a traditional house one day, but not in this format. The contract was pulled (by me) after only a short time due to mistakes and errors that grieved this writer. Suzanne Eller
Worth sharing!

Hooked from the first page, I nearly read this in one sitting. For me, that's the litmus test for a good book and this one definitely passed! (In fact, I recently bought a novel by a mega-author who shall remain nameless and I struggled over two weeks to finish it.)Eller has taken a familiar story, that of the Prodigal Son, and crafted a compelling, contemporary tale with believable characters and, just as important, without condescending preachiness. I will donate my copy to my daughter's school and recommend it to our church's library. It's the ideal book, particularly for young people (high schoolers and older) who doubt the reality of a personal God and His relentless, unconditional love.
Superb!

Having read many articles, short stories, plays and skits that T. Suzanne Eller has written, I could not wait until her book was released. I was not disappointed! I literally could not put "Blood of the Fathers' down once I began reading. From the very 'get-go' the reader is drawn into the pages of this novel. I am an avid reader, and not often have I been so totally consumed with a book, I couldn't put it down. T. Suzanne Eller, hurry with your next book! I'll be reading yur materials for years to come!
Blood of the Fathers fully captured my attention!

I began reading Blood of the Fathers to study Eller's writing style, but as I was drawn into the story, I had to reread it for my original purpose. I read it without putting it down! This is a 'must read' for all who care about young people and their struggles!
