The best free thing ever
Look, I'm just going to say it like it is. This is free to download and it's absolutely incredible.

This is dark brooding Hip Hop, imagine world folk music instruments crafted in a blend of shadows that's work so perfectly. Then there is Shahmen himself. There are poetic lyrics delivered in his laid back bass of his voice. His voice is as bassy as the bass. Then to top it off he writes songs. Songs that are amazing.

It's hard to think this guy isn't huge but he isn't. He could be if everyone reads this and downloads it. ITS FREE. You won't regret it. Even though it's hip hop, indie and metal fans love this too. Awesome.

A well written story that pulls you into another world..... literally.

To say the book focuses on and around teenagers it's anything but aimed purely at young folk. If it hadn't have been for references to age I would have spent most of the book thinking I was reading about early twenty-something's.

There's plenty of magic and fraught situations that had me almost holding my breath and wishing that I could perform magic.
    I enjoyed journeying with Porter (The Gatekeeper's son/future Gatekeeper) and his cousin Ames. It was nice seeing how each of them grew throughout and gained a better understanding of each other and themselves. Especially learning self belief and trusting their new friends.

A good fantasy that will keep you and your mini mes entertained and enthusiastic for an adventure.

"I had to choose this one because it means so much to me in my life. When I met my wife we were listening to it a lot, so it's a really personal record for me, and a really romantic record. It's got a folk element but it's never silly, and on songs like 'Young Bride' it's really fascinating and beautiful. I went to see them at the Royal Festival Hall a couple of years ago and was absolutely blown away. I didn't know what to expect, but the singer had a real presence, a real energy, he was living it. It's the soundtrack to a very recent part of my life, and a very important moment to me personally. It has a huge emotional resonance for me."

"This was the mid-’80s, around the time PiL made Album. On that record, I was referring to the heavy metal scene, which had crawled up its own backside. It was endless bands imitating each other, the same nonsense that punk turned into. But great achievements were made in music around then too. Everything from madder folk outfits and pop music itself was becoming very interesting then. I was always pleasantly surprised that oddball stuff would creep in the charts from nowhere. Someone like Gary Numan gave pop music a very distinctive and clear tone that was all his own. “At this stage, I would have been buying everything that was being made, but Alice Cooper’s Killer never left me. That easy way of growling he had was always impressive."
