Hurricane (Street Rats of Aramoor: Book 2)
Page 23
Reevie took a step back and leaned in to be heard over the shouting. “Well, you wanted a tribe.” He stared in wide-eyed wonder at the rally of kids that had gathered, all searching for a place to belong. “Looks like you just got one.”
I gawked at the throng of new faces staring back at me, and wondered how we were ever going to manage. In that moment, I came to one simple conclusion. We’d manage the same way we always had. One day at a time.
I HOPE YOU enjoyed this second installment to the Street Rats of Aramoor series. If you found the story entertaining and would like to see more, then please consider helping me reach that goal by: Leaving a quick review on Amazon.
Reviews are the easiest way to say THANK YOU to an author. They encourage other readers to try the book while at the same time show Amazon that the book is worth promoting. To be honest, very FEW readers leave reviews. Please help me by being one of the exceptions. Reviews don’t need to be long or involved, just a sentence or two that tells people what you liked about the book in order to help readers know why they might like it too.
Of course, depending on the type of reviews received, it will either push the author to get the next book out, or quite possibly force him to find an alternative career path.
If you’ve never left a review before, here is a video that explains how easy it is: How To Leave A Review

About The Author
MICHAEL WISEHART graduated with a bachelor’s degree in business before going back to school for film and starting his own production company. As much as he enjoyed film-work, the call of writing a novel got the better of him, and on April 14, 2014 he started typing the first words of what would be two new epic fantasy series: The Aldoran Chronicles and Street Rats of Aramoor.
