Readers Say

  • heartbreaking, but stunningly written


    This was incredible (heartbreaking, but stunningly written)! I feel chilled after reading that. The research and thought put into this is just amazing, and I’m so intrigued to see the second part
  • absolutely enthralled


    Wow, that was stunning writing, the topic was gruesome but the delivery was excellent. I was sad, uncomfortable, and absolutely enthralled in your words. 
  • Soooo good!


    Damn, this is soooo good! I love your prose and adore the tiny details. The shudder of the refueling ship, the fact she has a favourite scar. Amazing job, my friend. You nailed it!
  • incredible!


    This gripped me and didn’t let me go until the very last sentence– incredible!

  • I’m hopping to the next chapter!!



    Morgan, this was beautiful. I’m sad I took so long to get here!!! Your writing has really good pacing, and I love Kivith and I love Ryn and I love them both, together, already ! That was a beautiful flight, and not just that but you slipped in some lore and physics into it. Through it you also introduced your characters and what they meant to one another. The invasion was an exciting turn of events. I’m hopping to the next chapter!
