They look real, to me, but they also don’t seem real. You don’t see them, either."Peri, alone in her house, has spent a lot of time observing the silent, strangely sad giants that move just on the edge of her vision. They never speak. They never laugh. They are always alone. Drowning in her own loneliness, Peri doesn’t think much about where the giants came from, or what they might need from her. When Peri’s best friend Wink starts seeing the giants too, though, they decide that they need to find out why the giants are so sad and alone. This sets them off on a quest that neither of them is quite prepared for, through the woods and up the mountain. Magic, melancholy, and myth collide in their lives, showing them a world both worse and better than they ever knew. It’s beginning.

Follow this trio as they tackle a devious plan that threatens western civilization as we know it. Can they thwart the terrorists? Can they crack the code? Can they save millionsOr will it be another catastrophe that Kent can write about?Lee Gimenez, the award-winning author of 13 books, including several bestsellers, reviewed Comes the Awakening "An excellent novel. This thriller is a great read. Good plotting, pacing, and characters, with plenty of mystery elements throughout. I recommend this novel to people who enjoy fast-paced thrillers. I'm looking forward to reading more books by this author." Yvonne says: "The relationship between Phil and Bill is really strong and you can sense that they trusted each other with their lives. Whilst I felt I knew everything about Phil, Bill was another matter and I was still finding things about him the further I got into the story. One of my favourite characters was Cyndi, Phil’s wife as whizz on a computer and an essential part of the team as her research skills were the best. She understood the importance of the mystery and let Phil go off and investigate.While there may be some comparisons to Dan Brown’s novels, this story was so much better, . . . "
