Book Cover of the Week Award Winner!
----------------------------------------------
"For a person who loves Classical Greece and Rome as much as I do, I can't believe it's taken so long to come across a book cover that captures the spirit of that time.
Once I saw this design by cover artist Troy O'Brien for author Edward O'Toole's Clavis, I had to feature it. The subtitle "A Will of Iron...A Soul to Lead" stirs plenty of curiosity given the image between the two axes features a woman."
- Erin Aislinn, Judge of the Book Cover of the Week Award

Imagine a female Braveheart intent upon a multi-faceted quest of self-discovery, family preservation, honor and the emancipation of her homeland across a barbaric landscape filled with characters ruthless and savage; comical and unique. Containing a taste of the fantastical and magical, Edward O' Toole's "Clavis" is a delightful, entertaining and educational read that keeps you turning the pages. Wonderfully written, you become fully immersed and mesmerized within the story as the 13-year-old heroine, Clavis, must come-of-age in an ancient land ruled by the sword and the axe where women are supposed to know their place and never question it. Clavis, armed with the ability to see the ancient past and the nearing future, breaks all the rules to free her land from the clutches of a corrupt political system.
Clavis is a fun read, sure to delight those looking for a good, fast-paced story set in a unique setting and time.

Richly-detailed settings and descriptions of bronze-age life. The author went out of his way to make it as authentic as possible, and it pays off in a story that is believable -- you can really lose yourself in this one. Characters were strong, faced interesting challenges, and overcame them with bumps and stumbles along the way. A real epic fantasy, with heroes and heroines, political intrigue, fight scenes, and mysticism (though handled in a believable way). An underappreciated masterpiece!
