the buzz

What's the highest compliment I can give a novel? That it's unlike anything I've read. And upon Michael J. Bowler's urban fantasy Children of the Knight, I gladly bestow that distinction."

- Examiner.com

It's not just entertainment, but a story that changes your outlook on life. It is a story that explores the depth of human madness and hate, but also the depth and beauty of the various types of love. Such a fantastic book!

- Readers' Favorite

The Round Table-inspired works of Bowler's are certainly meant to entertain, but they do so much more than that...They're a call to action to right the many injustices facing the world today.

My series is both mystery and thriller with paranormal and suspense elements, so they are not the “cozy” variety. But […]
