Horan is a fromer teacher and counselor who has spun a good story, including some 'faction' from her family history about frontier life. She has managed to create characters that jump off the page and demand that you remember them. You simply cannot get Jeannie out of your head. Now that's writing!

November 11, 2002: My daughter and I just love Evelyn Horan's "Jeannie" series. Evelyn is such a talent. She provides her readers of all age groups a wonderful story with page turning adventure and non-stop action. Her characters are believable, the dialogue is easy to follow and relate to, and her exciting plot(s) hold attention. Evelyn is a master at weaving the perfect blend of excitement and family historical facts in her "not to be missed" series of children's books. My daugher age 9, loves this series so much she had me order copies of both books for her school library. The entire "Jeannie" series is a series even the big people will love! This series has my personal seal of approval! Victoria Taylor Murray - author, The Lambert Series, Forbidden, Thief of Hearts (and two others pending published.)
