Words of praise for Moonshadow's Guardian
I'm not used to shorter fantasy stories, I usually stick with huge epics with various side stories and such, but I enjoyed this lighter read. Very well written pulp fantasy. - Ellie Raine, Amazon
This is fantasy with a slight political element, and a world that the author only touches the surface of in terms of its rich history and fascinating ruling families. There is a lot going on in that the author has pulled many different elements of the fantasy genre and given them each a voice in her novel. It's fresh and I very much appreciate that. - Alicia Miller, Amazon
