Review: Wonderland – Molly Lolly

Molly Lolly

Oooh, a 4.5 star review from Molly Lolly: “I really enjoyed this story. I found the world Mr. Coatsworth created fascinating and the reasoning behind the post apocalyptic world being completely hilarious but also totally plausible in many ways. Nathan and Zeke were interesting characters and I liked that we got to know them so well. They both focused on survival and making sure they had what they needed. The tiny bit of mysticism in the story was a wonderful touch. I figured it out quickly but I liked getting to see how Nathan handled it as he learned about it. … Read more

Review: Wonderland

Wonderland review

Another review of Wonderland (in This Wish Tonight) is in – this one from Cia Nordwell: “Okay, so you have me with post-apocalyptic! That’s all I needed to know to rub my hands together and settle in to read this story with relish. It made me laugh when it was a winter storm trapping the main characters, because I was trapped at home by an ice storm. The best part of this story is that there was realism from the lack of food, to the personal grooming, to the struggle to keep some semblance of normalcy by both Nathan and … Read more

Love Bytes Reviews “The Autumn Lands” Audio

Love Bytes The Autumn Lands Audio Review

Just got a fantastic five heart review of Vance’s audio version of “The Autumn Lands” from Alexander at Love Bytes: The world building was well done, enough clear descriptions to allow my imagination to fill any gaps, and the science fiction elements were kept relatively clean and simple, which worked well in terms of ease of reading, and not to give anything away, but I did not see the story ending like it did, although once the final act had been played out, it made perfect sense, and I commend Coatsworth for that “wow” moment. I really enjoyed Bastian’s narration … Read more

4.5 Stars for Myths Untold: Faery

Anne Barwell

Just got another great review for Myths Untold: Faery, which includes one of my stories: For the whole antho: I’d recommend Myths Untold: Faery to readers who like anthologies which share a common theme but tell very different stories. 4.5 out of 5 stars. For my story, Through the Veil: Through the Veil by J. Scott Coatsworth sucked me in with the first couple of paragraphs and didn’t let go until the end. The world building in this story is fabulous, and very easy to visualise. It paints a very grim picture of a dystopian future, but despite that there are good people, … Read more

Novel Approach

The great folks at The Novel Approach just gave Flames and “A More Perfect Union” a great review: For AMPU: A More Perfect Union is an anthology by four authors who have lived through the turbulent times before and after the journey toward marriage equality for all.

Four Heart Review for “Myths Untold: Faery” from Love Bytes

Love Bytes

Just in – a great four heart review from Love Bytes: – here’s what they said about the anthology, and my story, “Through the Veil”. Also, a guest post by me about researching the story: This anthology was very enjoyable… The last story, Through the Veil, was an action packed adventure with faeries, demons, and many other magical creatures. The main character, Tyler, was a transman who was in the processes of transitioning, but still had not received surgery. There was so much going on in this story that I was initially a bit lost. However, I loved the romantic … Read more

Two Great Reviews for Myths Untold: Faery

Hearts on Fire

Just in – Two new reviews of “Myths Untold: Faery”. First, a four star review from Hearts on Fire: Very well written stories and as this is book one, the stories are left with cliff hangers – so for those who don’t like those types of endings, you may want to wait until book two comes out! I’d say The Pwcca and the Persian Boy and The Changeling are my favorite stories from this collection, they both had an element of mystery and new adventures to them that appealed to me and I really wanted to keep going with both … Read more
