Orphan Dreamer and the Glass Tattoo

Reviews Every now and then you come across a book that takes your breath away. Amazon Reader Heartwarming and tragic . . . Chanticleer Book Reviews Their (Daniela's and Cillian's) childhoods make for an uncomfortable telling, but they stick in the mind. For these two characters alone, readers may take a leap of faith. A challenging exploration of otherness and self-belief. Kirkus Reviews This story weaves around two pivotal souls one in Ireland (and England) and one in America. Worlds apart, yet intertwined . . . Heather G., Reader Epic, nicely wrought, evocative. E. Davis, Book Reviewer Not since the first time I read the Da Vinci Code have I been so thoroughly engrossed in a suspense novel. Book Reviewer, Bibliophile As book editor and Judaic consultant for J. Nell Brown's novel--THE ORPHAN DREAMER AND THE GLASS TATTOO--I journeyed with the author's characters through an amazing story, crossing broad time eras, difficult (and sometimes disturbing) life encounters, cultural divides, and spiritual dimensions. The story is solid; the message impactful. It gets into your heart and causes you to evaluate your thoughts on human relations, race, individual purpose/destiny, and spiritual issues. Ann Castro, Book Editor This saga has taken me on a roller-coaster ride. There was no such thing as a sagging middle. Great job with plotting. I couldn't have come up with something this intense, emotion-packed, and in-depth. Jeanne M., Inspirational Author A masterful story that displays the natural and supernatural worlds. It is riveting, thought-provoking, and relevant for the time in which we live. You become captivated as you feel and perceive the emotions and motives of the characters. You won't want to put this book down! Reader Brown has crafted a dense and rather abstruse novel, tackling themes of belonging and deprivation within a sprawling nonlinear narrative. Kirkus Reviews
