Another Positive Review

National Emmy Award winner Frank Radice, television producer and co-author of Random House’s pop-up book “Sam Katz on the Loose,” said:

“As an author of content for kids I know the difficulty of creating a world that is intriguing, engaging and fun. ‘The Conjunction of the Realms’ has achieved that goal, and gone way beyond, in both originality and beauty. It is a giant leap for the genre. This has great ‘Legs!’”

- Amazon.co.uk (currently discounted! Only £2.00)
- Barnes & Noble

More Positive Reviews for "The Conjunction of the Realms (Part One)"

Today I would like to post another positive review from Amazon.com and respond:

Fantasy: a Fun, Happy, Read with Depth September 14, 2013

Format:Kindle Edition


This book surprised me. I am not a fantasy genre fan but I enjoyed reading this book. It takes you on a journey between the real world with its beauty and wonder and the world of imagination. There is enough science fiction thrown in to make you buy into and consider alternate realities. Perhaps this alternate world has more truth in it than the world we think we live in.


Dear S. McMullen:


Thank you so much for your review. A lot of research went into The Conjunction of the Realms (Part One), to make it as believable as it can possibly be. Even the archeological findings of the homo floresienses, proving the existence of a newly discovered species with human characteristics but of a much smaller stature, served well to have readers ask the very question you did on your review: could this alternate world be true? I hope The Conjunction of the Realms series can inspire young and old to abandon for a moment this cynical world we live in and enjoy a magical and unforgettable adventure to the world of imagination.

All the best!

Positive reviews for "The Conjunction of the Realms (Part One)"

It is not everyday that you fill your heart with courage to publish a book and a month later find amazing reviews posted by the readers. The next three blog posts will be devoted to these reviews, along with my comments.

This post came from Dream Detective on Amazon:



Amazon Verified Purchase (What’s this?)


This review is from: The Conjunction of the Realms (Part 1) (Kindle Edition)
The Conjunction of the Realms is quite unlike anything I have ever read, even though as a college literature instructor I have read hundreds of books considered to be in the genre of fantasy. At first, I was surprised that the writing was unabashedly non-formulaic, or expected. Before I could consider another question, I was caught into the intrigue of the magical characters and their world–which really is “the conjunction of realms” between a believable family in the 21st century and the many spirit creatures and understandings they encounter and interact with. The story line continues to broaden and draw you in, and what you will discover will both delight you and release your inner child to consider the possibilities of the world that we live in. The illustrations are winsome and lovely….I can’t wait for Part II!

Dear Dream Detective:

What an inspiring review! It is so encouraging to find out that you enjoyed the story and was caught in the conjunction of the two realms: imagination and our perceived reality. :) To portray a 21st century family was a huge part of the plot. Most magical stories have their origins in the past, so no wonder they are not believable. I wanted the readers everywhere to realize that the world of imagination is alive and well! And it is also very accessible. Anyone can go on an adventure. Thank you so much for your kind words, and if all goes well, Part Two will be released August 2014. All the best!
