The Orca King II is a delightfully creative book that takes you on a different journey with a whale shifting King that must make amends for past mistakes by facing the shadow created from them. Facing this shadow will involve confronting an evil serpent that lies in wait within the one person whom he finds could be his life mate.

Darragha Foster has penned an interesting and different read that I found very intriguing. The plots native lore comes to life with each page you read. Tom’s thoughts and feelings while coming to grip with the consequences from his selfish use of his vision quests and the women he made love to, will keep you turning the pages in wonder. His personal quest will capture the reader while he faces his demons and realizes that his soul mate brings love and danger to all that he rules. This was a unique and enjoyable story filled with magic, lore, and a beautiful romance to touch your heart. Enjoy your trip to Orca Island with The Orca King II.
