Welcome to day seven of the Miracles & Ghosts Past Blog Tour. Today, we visit Diana Wallace Peach. Having been in two groups with her, I’ve found her to be very supportive of fellow authors, including her extensive reading and reviews. I find many great reads from those reviews. Plus, we share the love of nature. If you haven’t read any of her fantasy books, you should! Before we head to her stop, I want to share a review from one of my favorite books by Diana.
My five-star review:
“Liars and Thieves” is a fantasy with Elves, Goblins, and Changelings living in an uneasy truce with crystals as their energy. The theme of greed and need felt current to me, and the world was brilliantly written in beautifully described images. My favorite character is Talin, who is a spy with a heart, and Alue is a close second as an Elf who has more sense of justice and temper than most. I enjoy the interactions between them in any form. Naj, the half-Elf and half-Goblin, approaches things more logically but is a solid leading character with a charming relationship with the Goblin he loves. I like what binds the three together. Then, there’s a lack of trust and blame between the three groups that felt very real to me as well as some misplaced loyalties. The unexplained disappearances and earthquakes threw in some chaos. I can’t wait for the next book to see what happens. If you love fantasies, you will want to read this.
