It's tragic that Nassun, in a fit of rage, comes to understand her father's filicidal outbursts—but can't quite make the connection that what she aims to do with her fear and hatred is just as evil as what Jija did to Uche with his.
So close! Just a wee bit more self-reflection and she'd get there…
Ah, but we're only a quarter of the way through the book. There's time and hope for Nassun yet.

Does anyone have a list of book blogs, legit book reviewers, book magazines, and such places a Mastodontian author could get visibility for their book?
Speaking for myself and other indies that could use the boost, since many of us have left META and need new ways to share the exitement of new releases. (:

Do you hate AI, love discovering new indie authors, and love Fantasy stories that get DARK?
Then I suggest that you preorder Once Upon A Fairytale, an anthology that has all that (and you get to prove the power of Mastodon as THE place for us indies)!
Please share, so others too can find a good read for the fall season. <3
