I loved it! * Ross Montgomery, author of Spellstone * The Secret of the Moonshard is absorbing and imaginative magical fantasy at its very best. Struan’s wonderful storytelling gave me the spellbinding feeling of Howl’s Moving Castle mixed with Nevermoor plus a dash of Jurassic Park. Beautiful, original world-building and enticing characters entwined with a thrilling plot.
