What People Are Saying
Dr. Susan (Lingua Galactica)
I enjoyed it so much when I read it on KU that I immediately bought it to have to reread. Also, I rushed to Facebook to tell the author and all my friends how much I love this book. …. This book is the kind of science fiction I wish I could find to read all the time.
LDW (Dream Dancer)
Absolutely one of the best books I have ever read. I loved learning about the culture of the people. The author created a world I felt totally immersed in. The characters felt like people I knew, they were so well described.
Ellen D (The Pomegranate)
After finishing The Pomegranate, I felt compelled to let you know how sad I was to be finished. I was so invested in the story and the characters that I, actually, cried with joy and sadness at the end. The character development was incredible; I felt I actually knew these people.

“You have to write the book that wants to be written. And if the book will be too difficult for grown-ups, then you write it for children.” –
