PREVIEW

PROLOGUE:
In the timeless space between consciousness and sleep, Tomas Moone met the girl he would love for the rest of his short time on Earth. It happened during one of those perfect summer days you don’t want to end. He lay on the grass, gazing up at the sky, trying to look at those strange, squiggly things you get in your eye. But as soon as he caught a glimpse of one, it darted away.

​As Tomas drifted off to sleep, he saw her face and named her Sky. She seemed just as surprised as Tomas, but then the small, blonde girl with the pretty face smiled and disappeared.

reviews

'Sky's storyline had some surprisingly scary elements, there's even a moment that pays homage to an infamous scene in The Exorcist. The scenes leading up to end were written with amazing build-up and pace. There wasn't too much exposed, too soon, and when truths were revealed, I can't say that I saw them coming at all. 

The Epilogue was a perfect cliffhanger to sign off at, and I'm looking forward to seeing what R.E.Palmer gives us in Stargazers!' Reeka (full review on Bound by Words)
