Reviews
A refreshing set of short fantasy tales that manage to be progressive and most of all a celebration of life. I heartily recommend these stories and hope you take to the high seas again soon!
Runalong The Shelves
A.J. Fitzwater has crafted a fun and delightful story focused on characters, that while not entirely human in appearance, have wonderfully human personalities.
The Nerdy Girl Express
There's something very soft and cuddly about these stories, in which krakens can become allies, stars can be freed from their royal captivity and sent back to the heavens, and pirates make for the most successful diplomats to all the various creatures of the earth (even the felines!)
