Five-star review of
Moonquest by Mark David Gerson
I was caught up in the
beautiful, lyrical writing of this fantasy story. Early on, the main character,
Toshar, a bard in a land where being one is punishable by death, wonders what
is dream and what is reality. When he lets his dreams guide him and his three
companions, they achieve what they must, to bring M’nor, the fabled lost moon
of old, back to the night sky. Each of the four has a character arc, but
foremost is Toshar’s physical and mental journey to become Elderbard, to defeat
the evil Fvorag, the king who banished all bardic tales from the land, and to
save the other residents of Q’ntana. Highly recommended for those who love gorgeous
storytelling.
