Book Review - Dance of Time by Rod Vick

Dance of Time by Rod Vick

From Rod Vick, the well-loved author of Irish dance novels, comes a new trilogy, Coins of the Dagda, a suspenseful journey of dance through time. First in the series is Dance of Time.

When fourteen-year-old Dare McClaren finds a note from her father, who died in a tragic accident a year earlier, she is mystified to find that it was written in 1946. Dare and her best friend must race against the clock to find out what really happened at the first Skyview feis in Chicago in 1946, and solve a riddle that could save the world, and discover what really happened to her father.

Vick proves, once again, that he has a gift for creating a well-paced story that will pull you through the story at break-neck speed. He creatively weaves Irish dancing throughout the story in a non-intrusive way that you will be able to appreciate, even if you aren't a dancer.

The storyline is creative and takes a few twists and turns that you may not anticipate. Vick incorporated the culture and times of the1940's, with references to Shirley Temple, the Willis Tower, and Little Orphan Annie, to name a few. And as an added bonus, there is a handy guide included that gives you background to the technology, events, and culture of the time.

You may feel, as I did, that the ending of the book was a bit rushed, but you can be assured that Dare will be back in Dance of Secrets: Book Two in the Coins of the Dagda trilogy.

Readers will look forward to seeing where Dare McClaren feis's next, and learning about the time period that she will travel to.

  2. I read testimonies and reviews about him so I contacted him immediately, explained my problems to him. Same day , he casted a spell for me and assured me for 2 days that my husband will return to me and to my greatest surprise the third day my husband came knocking on my door and begged for forgiveness. I am so happy that my love is back again and not only that, we are about to get married again, he proposed. I wouldn't stop talking about him.
