From the Author

I hope that you enjoy this book! While this is NOT a history book, I also hope that your interest is aroused in history. In a fun and entertaining way this novel contains several references to actual people and events to which I have put my own fictional twist. I would like to challenge you to find where I have twisted truth with fiction because you just might be surprised. Feel free to contact me through my website, blog, or facebook with your thoughts about this book or history. My hope is that you will never accept just one source as the only source of information because there are two sides to every coin.

A good easy read. I think this was written mostly for the teen generation although I found it exciting and interesting. I loved the trips back through history. I look forward to the next one ...

The young and young at heart will enjoy this novel about Diana, who has lived through many reincarnations. Heroes of the past and demons blend with history, action, and adventure. Reading this was a pleasure and I enjoyed doing some Internet research just to make sure my memory of historical events hadn't completely faded. Some twists and quirks should make you curious.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting YA novel January 28, 2012

By Stormi Johnson VINE™ VOICE

Do you believe in reincarnation? I don't, but I admit it can make for an interesting story. Silver Knight was a fun present day story that took you back to the past several times for a lot of nice historic tidbits as we get a glimpse of each warrior of the lights past lives.

Diana, has lived with nightmares of herself being killed over and over in horrible ways. She never understood why she had these dreams until she recognizes a priest on YouTube that she has seen in one of her dreams. Now she is convinced that she has lived out a life more than once and that killing demons is her job. Compelled to go to New York before heading to Rome, her and her two friends meet up with a few other warriors. Each of these warriors have had some very historical backgrounds.

Alex is a demon from Diana's past, we learn from her dreams that he kills Diana over and over in some horrible ways. He is absolutely ruthless, but he is also in love with Diana. Talk about some big romantic problems. When Diana meets Alex this time he swears he doesn't want to kill her anymore, but she just is not sure he can be trusted.

Even though Diana and Alex are the main characters the other warriors have a lot to do with what is happening, and the author gives them each a chapter so we can get to know them a little bit, there is Helen, David, Sol, and Jarret. Each I am sure we will learn more about as the series grows.

This first book I can tell is the builder for what is to come and because of this at times it feels like I didn't get to know Diana and Alex like I would have liked. Alex, doesn't come into the picture till later in the book, but from the little bit of a cliffhanger ending I know he will be a big piece of the next book.

There was a few things that I didn't really like, and I can't really say what it is without giving away some fun historical tidbits, but I will say it has to do with biblical references. I don't like my bible stories messed with much, but other than that and a few times I got confused with the shifting from present to past life, I enjoyed this book.

I can't wait to read Silver Demon and find out what will happen with Diana and her friends! I would recommend this book to anyone who likes your history mixed with a bit of fantasy.
