About the Editor:
“Rhonda Parrish is a shapeshifter with talents to match her every incarnation-magpie tenacity for picking the shiniest submissions, nightingale notes for crafting tales, and bright, feline eyes for seeking out her photographic subjects. She balances on the knife-edge of darkness and light, a sorceress of both realms.” – Sara Cleto

Excerpt
U is for… by Damien Angelica Walters:
My father and I used to stargaze when I was only a few years older than Millie. He taught me the constellations, patiently pointing at each one until I could recognize the shapes without his help.
They were a link to something bigger, something more, but no longer. Now Orion’s Belt mocks me with its precision; Cassiopeia with her beauty, a beauty that will remain even when no one’s left to see.
Once a comfort, all of them, now my enemy.

One of my favourite themes to read and watch. Added to my Goodreads list.
Thanks for bringing this book to my attention, Laura. Say hello to Sherry for me also please – tell her her posts are missed.
Mine too Emma. This is on my wish list!
Sherry is having difficulties getting email notifications to go out for her posts. She is doing some blogging but not a lot until she can get it figured out.
The cover and the excerpt are beautiful. I’m looking forward to more. 🙂
