Reviews of The Disappearance

“An imaginative and thought-provoking leap into a parallel world where mystical creatures are not what they seem and magic isn’t the only way out. A mesmerizing journey for all ages!”
                                                   —Ann I. Goldfarb, author of the Time Travel Mysteries

“The Disappearance is an immersive and exciting ride through a fantasy world that’s as fresh and new as it is convincing and real. Leach’s epic tale will keep you turning pages well past your bedtime.” 
                                                                   ​—Shanan Winters, author of The Adept Cycle

Gale Leach’s novel, The Disappearance: Book One of the Rift Chronicles, is a spellbinding tale that parallels the power and meaningful depths of C.S. Lewis’s tales of Narnia. What reader, young or old, wouldn’t be attracted to a story about a parallel world full of magic and wizards and so much more. And yet, in its page-turning drama, this plot offers more than the superficial story line. As the author leads the reader on two journeys, Jessie’s and Tom’s, she gives insight into history, spirituality, magical spells and their sources, and a whole realm of possibilities where anything that can be imagined is also potentially believable. A wonderful tale. Can’t wait for book 2.
