First review for Marseguro
It’s from the Harriet Klausner, of course. Here’s the final paragraph of the whole thing:
The regime in power is so xenophobic that it makes war on innocent men, women and children subduing colony worlds by deadly force. Marseguro is determined not to be conquered but if they use the only means available to stop the troops Earth is sending their way, a great travesty will occur. Their moral dilemma is only on of the reasons this novel is so fascinating. The Selkie culture and infrastructure is very picturesque and easily pictured by readers who will want to visit his exotic world. Hopefully Edward Willet will write a sequel starring Marseguro.
I’m glad Harriet likes my books, but I do wish she’d learn to spell my name right. Two T’s, Harriet! You misspelled it when you reviewed Lost in Translation, too.
Grrr…
