The Zone Review - THE DUKE IN HIS CASTLE
In another reaffirmation that the Brits seem to really like my writing, here's a great review by David Hebblethwaite of my quirky novella in the online magazine The Zone. (David did a shorter review on his blog previously).
"A much under-appreciated writer (an assumption I make based on the fact that her name does not appear on the bestseller lists), Vera Nazarian routinely (though there's nothing routine about the results) mines a far richer seam of fantasy in her work than you'll find in the average genre tale - and The Duke In His Castle is no exception. It may be a novella that takes place in a single edifice, but it has more to wonder at, think over, and simply to enjoy than many a roaming epic of several hundred pages."

Thanks, David! :-)
