Legends will fall. And history ...will be re-written.

Reviews: "Being 75 years old and a successful musician, songwriter, author, and an avid reader, the "The Stone of Blood" by Tony Nalley is one of the best fact/fiction books I have ever enjoyed reading. The ingenious way it was put together shows the gifted talent of the author with the power to hold one in suspense. The story with its reality of truth and the intriguing suspense of the fiction and the unknown keeps one in constant anxiety of wanting to see where and how it would all end. The authors unique storytelling ability made me feel I was right there with Toby and Colby on their rendezvous with fact and fiction. I can hardly wait for the next book to go to print. The book took me back to stories like Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn; written by Mark Twain I enjoyed so much as a young boy. The author has surely reached a plateau of success with his ingenious style or writing. I wish him the best in his writing career. I feel that he is well on his way." Robert M. Mc Mullan Sr. Spring Hill Studio

"Amazingly Good Book! The book is a mixture of the Walton's, Huck Finn, Indiana Jones, historical fiction, werewolves, witches and ghosts. It's also a coming of age story, a love story and a quest. And it all works! My litmus test for a good book is whether I feel regret when the story is over. I felt great regret when I reached the end of the Stone of Blood. Great read! HIGHLY Recommend!" Jennie Zahn

"A brilliant story that shows what 14th Century France, 18th Century America, and 1970's America have in common." A Happy Consumer

Toby, is a normal twelve-year-old southern boy, who uncovers a centuries old secret. And he comes to realize ...the stories, legends, and myths he believed as a child ...are based upon reality. He learns how the ghost of a Confederate Soldier seen in his family's barn is directly connected to a secret city built by a Christian Order, a protector of Royal blood in the late 1700's ...and may also be tied to a recently un-earthed "Werewolf Cave" ...he and his cousin Colby had discovered. History suggests to him that connections between a famous Catholic Bishop (Flaget) and a fugitive who would become a future French King, as well as John Fitch, the inventor of the Steamboat, and Jessie James, an outlaw to some ...and a hero to many ...all of whom had frequently visited or lived in his hometown in its past ...are far more important than the stories written about them in modern day history books. Based upon true stories and historical events, centered around Bardstown, Kentucky, a small southern community, known as the "Bourbon Capital of the World" and voted "The Most Beautiful Small Town in America."
