Alternative Worlds Review

Accomplished reviewer Harriet Klausner wrote a great review of The King’s Daughters for Alternative Worlds.

Here’s an excerpt: “The story line is fast-paced and the cast solid as Nathalie Mallet paints a brisk vivid picture of the hero, before and during his “quest”, adapting though bewildered to the icy reception of those he hopes will be one day soon his in-laws.”

SciFiChick Reviews The King’s Daughters

Angela Schuch (a.k.a. SciFiChick) has posted a great review of The King’s Daughters.

Here’s an excerpt: “I became engaged in this story even more than the last…. I love the character of Amir. While he is a prince and a bit spoiled and biased, he has a kind heart and can’t stay away from a good mystery. With a climactic ending, the story is still left with promise of new adventures to come for Amir. And I, for one, can’t wait.” Read more.

I love that you love Amir, Angela! Thanks! :D

B.C.Day

Have a great B.C. Day everyone!

Black Petals

My friend Anne Stickel, editor at Black Petals—an online magazine of horror and science fiction—wrote a few words about The Princes of the Golden Cage in issue # 48.

"I found the scholarly but hot-blooded Prince Amir quite an appealing character, even though he’s occasionally impetuous, too quick to judge, and supercilious about his fighting skills. This one, featuring the princes looking over the palace wall on the cover, definitely earns 4 stars out of 5"

Wheeler Review

Harmony Wheeler wrote a lovely, detailed review of The King’s Daughters for Static Multimedia.

Here are some excerpts: “Her characters are lovable, believable, and easy to relate to. One character named Diego proclaims himself a “dandy” and resembles the famous literary hero The Scarlet Pimpernel in both his wit and his charm.”

“A page-turner for young-adults, adults, and fans of fantasy and mystery, The King’s Daughters delivers big time. Unlike its story, the book’s success will be no mystery.” Read More.

This is a very good review, (I especially love The Scarlet Pimpernel comparison) so please check it out!

Bookgasm reviews The King’s Daughters

Here’s an excerpt of what Mark Rose at Bookgasm wrote about my book and me:

“Most of her main characters are succinctly drawn, with real motivations and realistic behaviors. She has a jeweler’s eye for scene settings and color, and her pacing is just right.She’s not the kind of author who would write a 600-page tedious doorstop of a book; her style is much more suited to the quick series installment in paperback that we all used to love about fantasy fiction back in the ’70s and ’80s...” Read more.

Nice, hey! :D
