Reviews
"The stories themselves beg to be read aloud--they flow one into another and feature a chatty, confident narrative voice from a speaker who clearly knows that his adventures are worth telling... Fans of dragons, knights, and princesses who take agency in their own lives will find this collection is indeed worth the telling." The Bulletin of The Center for Children's Books "Womack's freshman entry is a strong middle grade fantasy. With short, fast-moving chapters, this is a classic adventure story of old delivered in small bites. This is well suited for those fantasy fans not ready to tackle heavier tomes or who are not inclined for more explicit violence." School Library Journal Tales of Westerford is meant to be read aloud... Rooted in the tradition of oral storytelling, emphasis is on action and suspense building. The book is a solid introduction to high fantasy fiction for middle readers and should appeal equally to boys and girls. VOYA Magazine "My adventure through the pages was a resounding success and one that I would recommend to Children's Fiction fans that are ready for a good old fashioned quest to get the girl, gain a title, and save a kingdom...in no particular order." Satisfaction for Insatiable Readers "The Author spins his campfire tale with the expertise of a master storyteller." Liv's Bookshelf, "Womack's freshman entry is a strong middle grade fantasy.
