In the 70s, everything was bad: from shag carpets and men with big mustaches and sideburns to tie-dyed shirts over bell-bottom jeans. Yikes! <br /><br />I'm glad for your good review, Crystal. Prophecy of the Six and Alchemy look very unique and fascinating.

That was stolen from a Native American culture, and then redone in some very strange ways by people who had no idea what the hairstyle meant. <br /><br />OMG I love how the Moonless cover image is changing colors. Hypnotic! I actually was able to dig in to the first 6% of the book on my Kindle while in a doctor's waiting room this week. Loving it so far!<br /><br />Prophecy of the Six has a really eye-catching cover.<br /><br />I'll pick #2 as the lie.<br /><br />Hope you're having a great February.
