REVIEWERS ARE RAVING:
“… this project was a great read. There was not a single tale I did not enjoy, and that is quite a feat given that there were twenty-two stories in all. …ALLEGORIES OF THE TAROT is the genuine article – a five star read.”—John Dolan, author
“All twenty-two stories in this volume are, in a word, superb. I found myself scouring the Internet as I read it; every story made me want to go find more work by its author. The ultimate compliment I can give Allegories is to say that when I finished it, I thought how I envy those who haven’t read it yet.”—Lisa Millraney
“Allegories of the Tarot Anthology is a magical book. Magic that will keep you turning the pages. There are muses, demons, psychics, evil, and more! I shivered, I laughed and I even cried. Magic, I tell you. Magic. Absolutely loved all the stories. I can’t say it enough—I loved it!”—Julia Affleck
“Reviewing an anthology is slightly more difficult than discussing a book or comic because the tone varies from author to author. However, Allegories somehow flowed together as a well-matched whole. The project ended up feeling like several beads strung together to form a beautiful necklace that were more amazing for being paired together.”—Jodi Scaife
