"The Linking Stones: A New Beginning" by Tabitha Robin is a vivid and absorbing novel. The characters are very well-drawn, the settings are beautifully imagined, and the story is brilliantly imagined. These characters you can feel comfortable with and look forward to spending more time with. It was hard to believe this was Ms. Robin's first novel. The prose is poetic and mature. Highly recommended!

"The Linking Stones"

Tabitha-Robin speaks from the soul in her latest novel, The Linking Stones. She brings us an epic tale weaving together the incredible and real.
A classic love story with a backdrop full of fantasy and drama. It carries in the chapters a story about hope and faith. Above all it shares the most precious of truths, the pure magic of a perfect law.
Tabitha drapes the readers in the charm and enchantment of her novel with two lovers who will truly endear themselves to the reader. A story that will truly warm the heart and give one wings of joy.

"The Linking Stones," written by author & poet Tabitha Robin, She is

Well-crafted fictional/fantasy novel which young adults will love to. It's an interesting and unusual book. The author displays a tuned sense of imagination. At last, I can say it was a delight to read. This novel proves what a great imagination the writer has and her writing talent shows that she has the ability to make her characters come to life which mesmerizes the audience and forces then to stay focused & lost till the end comes. Such a talented writer is never short of ideas I must say. Tabitha Robin’s has a talented gift for writing &. I await her next book. I also congratulate her on a job well-done.

“The Linking Stones” is a story of a young Cherokee maiden and a brave Scottish war hero. These two gifted individuals are plagued by strange dreams that are somehow connected not only to their futures but to the unusual stones they each possess. Though separated by miles of ocean, they are drawn together to meet and face unimaginable forces of evil. As they follow the path God has marked for them, the truth behind the stones and what they are called to do is revealed.

Tabitha has artfully pulled from her imagination a unique illustration of the righteousness of God and the vile evil of Satan. She has created some of the most unusual creatures to depict the essence of evil whose mannerisms are enough to make your skin crawl. Ms. Robin uses her gift of story telling to weave a tale of good versus evil. Our hero and heroine call upon their faith in God and the power of the stones to defeat the enemy. In real life we have God’s Word, the sword of the Spirit, as our own “magic stone”. I was impressed with the author’s ability to weave a tale of fantasy as a tool to spread the Good News of Christ.

Tabitha Robyn shows her writing skills as well as her imagination in this short novel. This novel is her first novel, as I understand. I was her editor for the book’s initial re-writing. I enjoyed the story and characters very much.

John, from Scotland, Tabitha, an Indian princess in America, are bound together by God’s plan for their lives. Each has a stone in a cave where they live, each must decipher it’s meaning, and then set out to search for the other.

Her dialogue is clean and crisp, and her character descriptions are very detailed. The hardest part of writing for her, most probably, was the dialects spoken by all the different characters. American Cherokee Indians don’t speak the old Scottish tongue (Gaelic). So, the two understand each other in a deeper more practical level, and in the spirit as well.

Many writers are Spiritualists, but Tabitha writes in a spiritual way; aided by the Holy Spirit (because she is a born again Christian), so therefore, her story evolves into marriage and leadership for the Lord by John and Tabitha. But before all that can happen they have to overcome personal obstacles and absolute

This is an action packed adventure story, chucked full of romance and spiritual things. It’s a great write. Try it. You’ll like it…I did.

FIVE STAR REVIEW!!!

Tabitha, an Indian princess, has a destiny she dreams of. John of the Pike Clan also dreams of a destiny. Each of them dreams of a destiny with another person unbeknownst to themselves. Thus each begins their own adventures to whereabouts unknown with adventures unknown to meet their destinies. Each has faith in God although they see God (the same God) in different names and lights. Their faith is a wonderful means to which they carry themselves through their lives and adventures they are about to embark on. The adventures are numerous and enjoined. Mighty evils meet them along the way (too numerous to mention) and their faith is all that holds them together. They end up meeting and realizing that they each were the other’s unknown destiny. Love befalls the two of them, and with their faith their triumphs to each other’s souls are wonderful and of many a kind. Life without faith is not within their vocabulary.

“The Linking Stones” by Tabitha Robin, is an absolute must read especially for those who believe in following their faith. Numerous adventures and battles of faith abound in this hair-raising tale of Good vs. Evil. A must read for adventure, faith, beauty and romance. I say kudos to Tabitha on a wonderfully written adventurous tale of faith. I’ve never seen it done better.
