Editorial and other reviews for volume 3 in The Mind Monsters SeriesEditorial Reviews
THE INTERNATIONAL REVIEW OF BOOKS—”This is a well-crafted and emotionally layered novel…a richly descriptive and steadily paced supernatural thriller that blends dark fantasy, spiritual tension, and emotional depth. It’s imaginative, thought-provoking, and peppered with touches of dry humour that lighten the tone without undermining the stakes.
If you’re looking for a smart, emotionally charged fantasy thriller with heart, humour, and a unique voice, The Light of Wounds is a rewarding read.”

Reader Reviews
