This was a nice story.  I'm not much into the wizards and warlocks stuff, but this read very well.  Thank you for your efforts.

an exceptionally well written + enjoyable story.

I enjoyed the story, I hope you plan on extending the story. Either way Thank you it was a pleasure to read.

I loved that story.
Silvia.

Yeah, you surpassed your own stories with this one.
You're one of the best writers.
Great, great and great!
I'm amazed. Nothing more to say.
A lot of kisses.
Silvia.

gripping story and well worth reading. i can't find fault anywere. but then you can never find fault with great storys. you just go back and read it again.

i love the story so far.its nice as a t/g to read if(iwish it was me)how this story going. now i'm about to read part 2? i'll tell you when i will finishen reading it.

Just got through reading Ambition and Purpose. I really liked your plots. They are original and, with a minor suspension of belief (magic), realistic. I'd love to see more of Hallie's adventures.

I've noticed that you haven't published anything in a while, so I'm assuming you've moved on. But thanks for the entertainment. If you are on another site please take the time to respond. I'd love to read more of your recent work.

I'm off now to read some of your older stuff.

Just finished part 2. Cant wait to finish 03. Your research seems meticulous to a reader like me.  I had to spend some time looking up the Minoan civilization and Santorini/Thera and the speculation on Atlantis.  Another job well done. Thank you Julie

Julie O,

Another marvelous contribution. You are a truely entertaining writer who tells the story of the little things as well as the big things. What little things? Your celebration of food and wine. Your celebration of place and character. Your homesy sense of justice. You do this so well that I can not say if you write the big story line as an excuse to express the "little" things, or if you insert the little things to give your big plot richness. Maybe I should try a food metaphor. The way that you compliment your big story plot with your little story details reminds me of a meal that is complimented with an excellent wine. Neither overpowers the other, and both are enjoyed in a way that they could not be enjoyed alone. Thank you so much!

Best,

I have finished reading Ambitions, it like the rest of your writings, makes me feel like I'm there taking part in all that is going on. As is the case with Ally Burns, Iona, and Beth; Hallie is very much alive. I wonder if you, Julie, have had some experiences that allow you to do such realistic writings? They are great.

Great story! I wear a Labrys also, a symbol of the Mother Goddess.
One thing: why the spelling of Thira and Thera -- isn't it "Thera?"
I also believe the labrys was found in Knossos, at King Minos' palace. The word "Labyrinth" comes from "labrys" and means "Place of the labrys."

Well, I didn't get any sleep last night, yet your magical story leaves me feeling refreshed and content.  I didn't think it was possible, but you really recaptured and built on the success of the first story.  Amazing.

Very, very nicely done.  Real authorship.  Guess I'll be buying one of your books in the future.  Thank you for a great read, after a day of hard work.

all i can say is to sort of echo the sentiment already expressed by nicole wow what a story you did it again i couldnt stop reading until i finished it which seems to always be the case for me with your stories because they are all so damn good well its late i have no idea what time it was when i started but its 4 am now take care and have a great day and KEEP THE GREAT STORIES COMEING PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol

Well you did it again. What a wonderful way to continue the
story started in "Ambition". I can see it continuing when Hallie
is given permission to enter the Tomb, of course that is up to your
imagination.

Thanks again

Nicole
