Book Review By Gaylen M. H. Sharp
Tipple's Eve by Gaylen M. H. Sharp

In a famine-stricken world, the people of Tipple's Eve
live under the tyranny of Kon Longstorm, a man who controls
not only all the food in the Valley, but the very lives of the people. Kon also dominates the Monachi, a people he has imprisoned inside the caverns of Mount Tipple Rod. After Troy Warfork's closest friend accidentally drowns in Blue Diamond Lake, Troy dives into a massive whirlpool to kill himself. But instead of dying, Troy discovers an escape route from the Valley and from Kon's control. Troy goes to the Monachi and asks them to join him, hoping that together they can convince the people of Tipple's Eve to leave the Valley forever.
