Critics Review
Praise for By the Sickle Moon:
“A glorious, colorful, deep-fried take on the collision between a dangerous fae universe and the hardy, eccentric denizens of America’s rural south, By the Sickle Moon is a love letter to magic, mystery, and family ties that both bind and strangle. Heather Prewitt has a true eye for human frailty, raccoon heroism, and stubborn determinism among a clever ensemble of otherworldly and worldly characters. And if you never imagined how a down-on-her-heels, swearin’ Southern gal could charm not one but two royal faeries, well—bless your heart. This book is for you.”
—Randee Dawn, author of Tune in Tomorrow and We Interrupt This Program
“This is the most at home I’ve ever felt reading a book. From the trailer park and grimy cast to the bonfires by the wood line and the kin you can’t help but love, Heather Prewitt captured them all and presented them to the hungry reader so lovingly. By the Sickle Moon is wild, funny, and big-hearted, and the world Prewitt created is one I didn’t want to leave.”
—Andre L. Bradley, author of Trailer Park Prince
“This is how fairy tales should be written. With trailer trash kings, uppity truck-driving princesses, and raccoon jesters. It’s a full court of royal rednecks that made me feel like I was home again. The magic was delightful, particularly with one character, Johnfish. The language was casually Appalachian but I figure still perfectly enjoyable for anyone. Relatable, rural, and even a touch romantic.”
—E.L. Lyons, author of Starlight Jewel
