"For a novel with a lot of moving parts, Hale maintains the impressive standard of storytelling I have come to associate with JK Noble. An excellent novel on all counts."

"All ages will appreciate the ghosts, mysteries, and struggles which continue to evolve, involve, and consume Hale, his family, and those around him. The blend of fast-paced action, multifaceted characters and purposes, and more developing details about the Griffin clan and their world makes for a satisfying sequel that should be in any collection seeing patron interest in Hale: The Rise of the Griffins."
