EXCELLENT!!!!

I'm reading this book for the second time...something that I RARELY ever do with books. It is probably my favorite book of all time! Does anyone know if this author has published any other books? -Julie

Children of the Dust

Children of the Dust is the best book I have ever read. I am soooo disappointed that I cannot find the book anywhere. The book is so awesome. It's romantic,emotional, moving, sensational, and fascinating. Way to go Charlile Clancy, you are an awesome poet.
