"Very enjoyable.
A new author and genre for me but a tale that stayed in my mind so much so I couldn't put it down. The characters were well drawn and their connections well thought out. So, apart from a few typos and a couple of missed words which los" Read more of this review » |

"good story
I enjoyed the story. There were times it lagged but I push through. One two complaints 1) Errors -a lot . Needed to be edited again. 2) No epilogue. I like seeing past the end. Does she end up with Leo? " |

"Swallow the Moon is an intriguing book, well worth reading and offering a series of different interests. On one hand we find a love story in which Eric Macmillan, a retuned veteran from the horrors of the Afghan war, finds his life torn apart when hi"

I've always liked the Darkover novels, in spite of all the controversy. They hold up well for their age and the genre, and the new co-writer has a good solid knack for story-telling. ...more | |

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

“Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.”
― Invictus

“I stepped from Plank to Plank
So slow and cautiously
The Stars about my Head I felt,
About my Feet the Sea.
I knew not but the next
Would be my final inch —
This gave me that precarious Gait
Some call Experience.”
