Lamplighter Gets Its First 5 Star Review!

by

Melissa at Paranormal Romance Guild just gave my brand new sci-fantasy short Lamplighter a five star review: This is a short story that is part of the Liminal Sky world. And it is fabulous. This quick read is the perfect dip into the world building skill of J Scott Coatsworth and his Liminal Sky series. From word one, you are yanked into the story and, somehow, in just a few sentences, you are immersed in what could be the end of the world. I really loved this little story.
