Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Author
Ireland has always been a large influence on my life, especially as the son of an Irish woman proud of her heritage. It isn't surprising to those around me that this story takes place in an ancient Ireland that never was. The town names, people, places, creatures and some of the legends in this book reflect places and events I grew up with as a kid living in Ireland twisted into a mesh of Irish mythology
About the Author
Born 1966 in Tacoma to a military family. The military life allowed me to travel the world at an early age living and experiencing many other cultures. My mother, born and raised in Ireland has been the greatest friend and influence in my life (although I don't tell her enough).

Whats Next?,
By Craig (Sothern California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Dying Breed (Book 1 of the Breed Trilogy) (Paperback)
I could hardley but this book down, it made me want more. The twist and tales will keep you in suspense, at every corner there is a new adveture. Aiden is a character you love to hate but who you always wanted to be. I highly recomend this book for yourself or a gift to any adveture reader. I could'nt but this book down and I know you wont be able to either. I cant wait for the sequal.

A new voice in Fantasy writing!,
By Ruth DeJauregui (Fairfield, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Dying Breed (Book 1 of the Breed Trilogy) (Paperback)
Wow! As a huge fan of Tolkien and other classic fantasy writers, I have to say that James Pasch is making a place for himself! I haven't read such a fascinating new book in a long time. I thoroughly enjoyed his characters and the intertwining of Irish legend into a new fantasy tale. It was both an easy read and totally entertaining at the same time. I sat down and read it cover to cover in one sitting! I am looking forward to his next book, which I hope is coming out soon. Good job James!
