The Awakening
How angry would a mythical god be if he found himself awakening inside a mortal? After a strange and inexplicable death inside a jail, an intriguing and extraordinary shaman detects great unrest in the world, and breaks his way into the jail to investigate. He enlists Detective Carol Ainsworth to assist as an undercover prison officer who, rather strangely, also finds herself tasked with bringing to justice the murderer of a gentle forest being's mother.
The Awakening, Stillwaters Runs Deep: Book Three
Just when I was beginning to wonder where the next great Canadian story teller would emerge from, Frank Talaber has written a modern crime mystery with a twist. In The Awakening Talaber weaves the richness of Canada's west coast aboriginal spirituality into the science of modern forensics. CSI comes to Haida Gwaii as the shaman and the detective conduct an investigation that will take them and the reader on a journey to a place where murder, redemption and ancient mysticism intersect.

Reading Frank Talaber's writings I realized he not only has a great sense of time and history, but he has captured our first nations humour and more. There are many true aspects to First Nations beliefs ie: the transformation of animals and other anomalies are within our realm. His writing is clear and concise, leaving no grey areas, when going from the real to the surreal and the supernatural. Truly a gift he plies very well.

It may only be a book to some, but to me it is a beautiful piece of artistry that I have the privilege of enjoying.

The Lure, Stillwaters Runs Deep: Book Two
Damn Frank -- this writing is as tactile as a 1955 T-Bird. Very nice descriptions, good dialogue, a thinking man's book but one that can be read entirely for pleasure. Good work.
