Reviews for The Moon Endureth
7 ratings1 review
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A collection of short stories with brief poetic pieces set between them. Several of the stories are quite interesting, even gripping. Others I found somewhat tiresome. Those that contain passages of almost inscrutable archaic Scottish dialent I found particularly difficult to warm to. The poetry is forgettable.
