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.

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!

I purchased this book because I love anything to do with Irish legend's I expected this book to be about the usual leprechaun's and fairies, imagine my surprise when there was the most delightful character's I have ever come across, totally believable and a great sense of humor,the person who wrote this is a wonderful story teller. I do hope you have more book's from this author, as I am looking forward to another great story. I guarantee once you start this you will find your self unable to put it down, as the character's really pull you in. Thank's for the great read. A VERY AVID READER Calif USA

OH-H my -- I didn't think I'd be able to understand it with some D&D look to it with Elves and stuff but after the first few pages I was right in there. It's easy to follow and I can't to read his other words... Way to go Jim... *s*

I originally purchased this book for my 13 year old son to read. I ended up reading it first and could not put it down. My son then read The Dying Breed after me. Same thing; he couldn't put it down. Then my father became interested in reading the book after listening to my son and I repeatedly discussing different chapters and characters from the book. It became quite fun to sit around and have family conversations about the same book that we had all read. That lead to my mother reading it. This book is a true dedication of writing to the author when three generations can read the same book and find it as interesting and entertaining as we did.

As a former coworker of Mr. Pasch's, I may be a little biased toward this book, but I thought it was an incredibly good book for a first-time writer. The main character, Aidan, in my mind greatly resembles the author himself. I was very lucky to be in the vicinty when he was brainstorming the ideas for this book and that he cared to discuss them with me. I hope I helped in some small part. It's not hard to imagine the Ireland the author describes and it even makes you forget how the world is supposed to be in real life. Just imagine Aidan the elf writing this novel sitting at a laptop in an office building, staring out a sixteenth story window. That may not help your enjoyment of The Dying Breed, but it's an enjoyable exercise. I look forward to reading the subsequent installment in the series.
