“SFF translated into English from other languages is my literary catnip. So many unique worlds and possibilities open up in such stories. Combine these features with an indie author’s freedom of creativity, and readers get such wonderful escapist treats.”

“Rob and Fuku… shoved together and realizing they make a great team—and pretty good friends, too. Once Mi Lou enters the chat, things get really fun.”

“The split timeline aspect of these novels intrigued me as well… I still liked reading Mi Lou’s assimilation from futuristic cyberpunk into a world with dragons roaming free and folk flinging magic everywhere.”

“Also, Lethaus actually used correct terminology for bow usage. I’m beside myself with glee.”

“Perfectly done.”

I’m deeply thankful to The Story Eater for this generous review of The Magical Legacy of the Ryūjin and The Discovery of Inner Magic. Your enthusiasm for indie fantasy, literary precision, and character-driven storytelling is inspiring — and your wit had me smiling throughout. Thank you for taking the time to dive into Skaiyles. I’m honored!
