"Moonwise is an amazing book, a work of genius. It deserves to stand beside Lud-In-The-Mist or the writings of Lord Dunsany as a truly original seminal classic. And yet the most remarkable thing about it is that, amidst its intense and serious magic and its astonishing use of words, it causes you to laugh aloud - quite suddenly, taken unawares by an outrageous pun or an ingenious one-liner. I love this book and admire its nature magic more every time I read it."

Diana Wynne Jones.

Greer Gilman was Guest of Honor at Readercon, 2009; Lev Grossman had a great time there, and wrote about it in Time magazine.
