Moonlands by Steven Savile


I really loved this book and that it ended in a way that could turn into a Moonlands series and I hope it does!! I would love to read the story of Ashley growing up and coming into readiness to take her place as queen of the moonlands. But --- there are a great many typos, way too many too make a list of them as the requested at the back of the book. It needs read thru carefully by a professional editor to find and fix them all. They are not as such that makes the book unreadable, but it does get irritating after awhile. While I know the book has been released now, it would still benefit from a professional editor, it would make it worth more than 99¢ in the kindle store.
Other than the typos, the writing is fantastic, telling a story that brings Grimm's fairytales into both our world and the world of the Moonlands but in a totally unique way. Even tho this book is listed as YA, any adult who enjoys a good fantasy story will love this book. In my opinion, a definite must read!
