"The Last Archer is packed with competition, adventure, and moments of grace."

- Carolyn Leiloglou, Author of Noah GreenL Junior Zookeeper and the Garage Sale Pet

"Like all things S.D. Smith, this story celebrates hope, courage, and self-reflection. These attributes make the characters authentic...I sincerely hope that Smith will give us more like this. A scenic and fascinating detour from the main story, this was a lovely way to spend a few hours reading aloud to my children."
