Dear Reader,

More than anything, I want to reach you with my writing, and your response to my work is most important to me. I’m especially proud of the first two comments below. Both are from authors in their own right, but because they are my uncles, they belong here, not above.

I look forward to including your reviews, too!

Best Wishes,

A. R. Silverberry

“Silverberry’s prose is devilish, with potent strokes of poetry, irony and humor . . . [He] instinctively understands the dreams, the search for identity and the plaintive longing for acceptance of young people . . . The spirits of Aesop, Dickens, Tolkien and even Shakespeare must have been whispering in the author’s ear . . .” Raphael Adler, author of The Magical Adventures of Pee Wee Mulligan

“A beautifully written masterpiece of fantasy . . . Seemingly without effort, the author combines suspense and adventure, mystery and magic, intricate plot, vivid description, and smooth-flowing narrative. The book sings.” Irving Adler, author or co-author of 86 books, most for children, including The Giant Golden Book of Mathematics
