Book Reviews So Far:
“A deeply satisfying collection of fantasies that ranges from Americana to outer space, charming and precise in equal measure.”
– Paul Cornell, author of Witches of Lychford and I Walk With Monsters
“These stories are as lyrical, uplifting, otherworldly and unsettling as any faerie tale, and demonstrate Dotson’s ability to write confidently across a wide range of genres, including fantasy, science fiction, and horror.”
– Gareth L. Powell, author of Stars and Bones
“THE SHADOW GALAXY is a mind-blowing collection of weird, fun, dark, wild, character-driven tales by a powerful new voice! J. Dianne Dotson’s star is rising! Highly recommended!”
-Jonathan Maberry, NY Times bestselling author of KAGEN THE DAMNED and V-WARS
