"I hate to use generic critic phrases but it really did make you turn pages – suspense and drive are done very well...the Spirit became one of those fantastically three dimensional characters who I both cared for, annoyed me and I sometimes pitied."

"...Michael’s characters could walk off the pages...Strong writing and atmospheric detail made this a fulfilling read."

"...you read through the pages without being aware of anything else around you...The writing was beautiful, the story was reminiscent of the original, and there was a believable backstory for the Ghost of Christmas Past...a must-read for the Christmas season or any other time of the year."

"...delightful reading...A wonderful family read...Welcome to the world of Michael Hebler..."
