The Reviews Are Rolling In!

by
Ben Brock

Hey all, With our Italian friends here for three weeks, my time has been extremely limited. But I wanted to share some of the reviews for “A More Perfect Union” anthology and my story “Flames” with you! First off, Ben Brock weighs in: On “A More Perfect Union”: “I enjoyed all these stories. They weren’t all carefree and blissful, or as I like to say, “Sunshine and rainbows,” but there was love and happy endings. I’ll admit that when I picked up this anthology, I was hoping to see more of a collection of stories based on the real experiences … Read more

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

by
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

by
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

by
Cia Nordwell

Just in – a great review from Cia Nordwell: – here’s what she said about the anthology, and my story, “Through the Veil”.: Would that I could pick a favorite out of these stories in the anthology.

No matter what flavor of faery you usually prefer, you’ll fall in love with every incarnation in this anthology. … … Read more

by
Molly Lolly

Just in – a great review from Molly Lolly: – here’s what she said about the anthology, and my story, “Through the Veil”. Also, a guest post by me about researching the story: This anthology was fabulous. I enjoyed all of the stories and how each author took faeries and the Feary realm and made it their own. It’s a smaller anthology but it had pretty much everything I could want since I’m such a huge fantasy, faery and magic fan. Many of the stories had me wanting more from the characters or ended in a way that made me think … Read more

Surprise Review for “The Homecoming”

by

My book “The Homecoming” came out last year from Less Than 3 Press. Now Rainbow Gold Reviews is surprising me with a review (and it’s a good one): Homecoming is different than any book I have read before. I had a little trouble getting into it at first but It isn’t due to the author’s writing. I believe it has to do with how much info is given in a small amount of words. The characters and scenes were vividly detailed. I enjoyed how the author intertwined shifters with the science fiction genre. If you like a short story with … Read more

by
Myths Untold: Faery

Just in – a great review from Wicked Faerie’s Tales & Reviews: – here’s what they said about my story, “Through the Veil” and the Anthology overall: The final story, and my absolute favorite of the anthology is Through The Veil by J.

There are those that live on the outskirts and those that live in the inner city where life goes on almost as it did pre-Tsunami times. Colton lives day to day trying to survive the best way … Read more

A Great Review for Myths Untold: Faery from The Novel Approach!

by
The Novel Approach

Just in – a fantastic review from The Novel Approach: – here’s what they said about my story, “Through the Veil”: Author J. Scott Coatsworth closes out Myths Untold in a fantastic way with Through the Veil—and gave the other stories a tightly contested run for title of my favorite in the collection. In an alternate San Francisco of the future, a dystopia that lends the story its mythical atmosphere, Colton lives a hardscrabble life as a gondolier and occasional thief. He is a man of needs and contradictions who meets his fate on Alcatraz island in the form of Tris, a stranger from the … Read more

Great Review for Myths Untold: Faery!

by
Anna Butler

Just got an amazing review from Anna Butler for our new anthology, Myths Untold: Faery: I’ve never grown out of my love for myth and faery stories. In their purest forms, they’re primeval, subversive, eldritch, enlightening, sinister, unsafe and ultimately unknowable. When I graduated up from Grimm, it was to Warner Townsend and Dunsany both of whom have moulded my views of what Faerie is, or may be: minutely detailed, threatening worlds with their cold, inhuman and amoral peoples. Get some of that into a modern day take of faery, and I will be satisfied. Four very different authors. Four very different … Read more
