H. Bard, fantasy fiction writer: "Brilliant! One word that doesn’t even come close to describing the
artwork of Tuatha and the Seven Sisters Moon. Nature gave the setting, folklore and religion gave
the base, and this woman took the proverbial bull by the horns and made it into nothing less than
something sensational. I was spellbound to say the least and wanted more, there is at least one
character within the pages that each and every one of us can relate to. I couldn’t put the chapters
down once I began to read. Every range of emotion can be felt between the covers. I laughed, I cried,
and I look forward to reading the next. "

Julius Caesar wrote of the Celts: "The Celts were
fearless warriors because they wish to inculcate
this as one of their leading tenets, that souls do
not become extinct, but pass after death
from one body to another..."
Seven Sisters. The infamous collection of stars
align with the full moon on Hallo’een, alighting
the sky for a destiny that’s waited centuries.
Dru, a gifted, but tormented witch living alone
on the coast of Ireland wakes to find Ty, her
long-time love, mysteriously disappeared. In
Paris, Katerina, an oppressed but talented
dancer bravely takes the stage in one final
performance before escaping a life of tyranny,
looking for a freedom she’d only known in
dreams. Aodh, The Dagda, a man made of
ancient legends, has slumbered for two
millennia. Tonight, when the moon is full and
the stars are aligned, he rises from his
temporary grave to find the world is not as he
remembers. His people, his family, his tribe
have vanquished, along with the majority of
his considerable power.
Chance takes him to Dru, and together they set
out to find the key to reopening his world,
whilst forming a bond of friendship neither has
ever previously known. During their search,
Dru learns Ty was no mortal man, but a god
with a prophecy to fulfill. Ty died before
fulfilling that prophecy, setting off a chain of
events that would forever alter the future.
Devastated, Dru abandons Aodh and the life
that should have already been hers, and finds
herself in the company of the worst sort. She
begins a sordid affair with Kas, a daemon whose
insatiable lust for power is only outdone by his
lust for Dru.
Separated from the only friend he knows, Aodh
is left to search the world alone for answers. He
meets the young and beautiful dancer,
Katerina, and is instantly smitten with her
grace and purity. He stays near her, pretending
to be mortal, gaining her friendship. But on
Katerina’s birthday, just as Aodh is ready to
concede to a life of mortality, Katerina is ripped
from him by Kas. Aodh’s ideas on remaining
mortal are no more; he has to unlock the secrets
to his world that will open a trove of
unimaginable power to save the two women he
loves, before time is no longer in his favour, and
he loses everything.

M. Sullivan-Avid reader: Tuatha and the Seven Sisters Moon is one of those books you can't put
down, and you want to hit something if you HAVE to put it down. You'll take it in your car, in the
airport, even in the john because you can't stop reading. Nothing is what you expect, there's a twist
and turn everywhere. Before you know it you're screaming at the top of your lungs in the Taco Bell
drive-thru and ready to cry like a little girl. Suck it up, take your burritos home, and let them get
cold because there's no way you can stomach lunch until you read it all, and more, until finally you
hit the end and get annoyed because it's over. This is one of those books that will go viral. VonThaer
will be one of those names synonymous with awesome, and everyone will have a hard time
remembering what it was like before Tuatha ruled the world.
A lot of the big books and movies right now are for tweens and toddlers. This is purely for adults, a
world which we can identify. There's no castle daycares or glittering fanged boy toys. The women
are sexy and smart, the men are bad ass, and you'll find yourself trying to figure out which one is
most like you. You feel a little bit of empathy for everyone, a little bit of rage. There's no cookie cut
outs in this book, and I'm dying for the next in the series.
