A Breath of Fresh Air
“What a delightful change of pace. I really liked the characters and the location. It took place during a gentler time without all the cruelty and violence that defines far too much of the books we see being published now. There is more than enough violence surrounding us today without having our escape to the land of books filled with it.” Puzzler
Layers upon Layers
“I don’t remember how, exactly, I came upon the Nuala books, but just an hour ago I finished a binge read of all four of them. I love a well-written mystery, and these don’t disappoint with their frequent literary allusions, interesting characters, and realistic sets of interpersonal challenges and conflicts…. There’s always a new thread to be pulled, and all kinds of insights and events result from each pulling. These are absorbing stories, and I hope there will be more of them.” Julie M. Drew
