Welcome to the land of adventure, secrets, fantasy, fear, love, courage, purpose. Erin A Craig's novel, A Land So Wide, takes you on a journey that incorporates all those things, and it begins to unfold within the small town of Mistaken. Once you enter Mistaken and stay the
…more night, you then discover that you can't leave. A curfew is set and to ignore it puts you at the whimsy of wolves, bears, strange "Bright-Eyeds" and other unknowns.
Greer Mackenzie, the daughter of the town's most influential elder has her heart set on marrying a long-time love, Ellis Beaufort. She also has a wanderlust nature and wants to venture beyond the limits. What happens next opens the door to secrets long held, to a world previous unknown, to a whirlwind fantasy, to an absolute page-turner of a read.
I enjoy a wide breadth of reading material and this fits well into many categories - mystery, fantasy, futuristic, magical, supernatural, and all with a touch of romance. It has it all.
Bravo, Erin A Craig, for generating such creativity and presenting it with a developing crescendo such that is truly hard to put the book down. Thank you. (less)
