Critics Review
Full of adventure and marvellous creativity, Water Moon surprises and delights with every turn of the page. I didn’t want to leave this fascinating world. Sam Sotto Yambao has written an inventive, refreshing fantasy here * Megan Bannen, bestselling author of THE UNDERTAKING OF HART AND MERCY * Water Moon is unlike anything I’ve ever read, full of wonders and terrors…a haunting, half-remembered dream of a book * Gareth Brown, Sunday Times bestselling author of THE BOOK OF DOORS * A spellbinding journey into a magical Ghibliesque world where regrets and memories can be bartered, where appearances are not what they seem, and where dreams, free will, and destiny are pitted against fate. Endlessly inventive, this haunting and enchanting tale is not to be missed * A.Y. Chao, author of SHANGHAI IMMORTAL * What a bright, fresh voice Samantha Sotto Yambao has brought to the literary world. Water Moon is a novel for all the senses, but its true magic lies in being breathtakingly visual. You will be spirited away * Sarah Addison Allen, New York Times bestselling author of Other Birds * Water Moon is a dreamy, ethereal fantasy, set in a fascinating faerie tale world with appropriately dark corners. Fans of Hayao Miyazaki will love this one * Olivia Atwater, author of Half a Soul *
