Author Note

Given the tension that sometimes exists between readers and authors, I want to emphasise that this is a safe space for readers to leave ratings and reviews that reflect their experiences with my books.

Aside from quoting some reviews for marketing purposes, I try to interact with them as little as possible.

I am also a reader. My reviews mostly showcase indie books that I enjoy. Everyone has a diffe Read more of this blog post »

Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor E. Frankl
“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”
Viktor E. Frankl
The Odyllic Stone by Alex Scheuermann
"Imaginative fantasy world

I’ve never read a story with a cockatrice before, so I was so excited to meet one within the opening pages of this book. I was even more excited when other mythological creatures that are rarely mentioned in fantasy turned up" Read more of this review »

Quotes by C.B. Lansdell  (?)

“From the start, our environment shapes who we are. We don't always see it, but we are similarly influenced by what the people around us believe.”
C.B. Lansdell, Far Removed

“When you start thinking everyone is trying to steal from you, you deprive yourself of so much.”
C.B. Lansdell, The Tidelings of Dras Sayve

“Some people make their own opportunities. Others need someone to help them know what they want.”
C.B. Lansdell, The Tidelings of Dras Sayve

“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”
Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning

“There is a monster in each of us. It starts out as a small, weak thing that we pity. We feed it and we nurse it because it hurts our hearts. It grows strong as we let ourselves believe it will pay us back our kindness, that it will lead us to safety and happiness. It will not.”
E.L. Lyons, Austringer's Wrath

“If we find ourselves with a desire that nothing in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that we were made for another world.”
C.S. Lewis

“There is a part of me, like a white-winged falcon, free, proud, wild, a souring thing that goes its own way seeking the bright stars and the sun. If you kill that white bird, I will be earthbound, bound in the patterns of men, with no words of my own, no actions of my own. I will take that bird for you, cage it. Only let it live.”
Patricia A. McKillip, The Forgotten Beasts of Eld

“What you see and what you hear depends a great deal on where you are standing. It also depends on what sort of person you are.”
C.S. Lewis, The Magician’s Nephew
