“Two Souls” by David Davila was among the books displayed by Author Reputation Press during the Frankfurt Book Fair 2023 at Frankfurt, Germany, on October 18-22, 2023. This book was highly praised by Gretchen Hansen of the US Review of Books, who stated that “Davila delivers a highly charged, exciting adventure in this novel. His narrative is intelligent and multilayered. The characters are vividly described and continue to develop as the story progresses. The dialogue is written in a realistic way that reflects each character’s personality. The author’s use of contrary concepts, such as ancient lore and its place in modern society, provides depth and texture to the story. Readers will find themselves engrossed in this smart, entertaining action novel with the ultimate confrontation between good and evil.”
