Megan Derr reviews Moro’s Price

…in her Top Ten M/M Fantasy and Science Fiction list, in early April 2014, over at Scorching Reviews.

Which I learned about only last night, via a friend’s email. I’m a little slow on the self-Googling, apparently. If I’d known about the list when the post and accompanying giveaway was live, I’d have happily contributed a prize to it.

Megan Derr is a prolific author most known for her M/M romance novels, as well as being one of the three founders of the LGBTQ publisher Less Than Three Press.

I’m floored. This would be a little like a relatively new mainstream fantasy author getting a short but positive review from Mercedes Lackey or Lois Bujold, I think. When I was new and bumbling around in the realm of published, original M/M romance, Megan Derr was a name I learned early.

Here’s what she had to say about Moro’s Price, in a balanced review that doesn’t ignore my book’s rough edges:

“This book has pretty much everything I usually avoid, and writes it in a way that I’m glad I took a chance. Every last bit of this book is exceptional, and pulls together a premise that could so easily have failed. It’s a bit of a rough story, so heed the warnings and possibly peruse reviews on goodreads.”

Oddly enough, this is almost exactly how I felt when I was writing it.
