Ok, so yesterday you read my review. Well today you can read my interview. After my interview is instructions on how you can win a ARC copy of Farworld: Water Keep that will be autographed by Mr. Savage himself.

He tells the man in charge that he has come on the behalf of Marcus’ parents and they want him back. The lawyer says though that he needs proof that Marcus really is the boy he is looking for. The boy he is interested in has a mark on his shoulder. Marcus can sense that the man is not really who he says he is and tries to escape. Unfortunately the man captures Marcus....
