Another #spfbo review, and this time it's @MarkOfAScribe's Mordicax. This wonderful wee mystery novel falls somewhere between Medieval Stranger Things, Pathologic, and a kind of Enid Blyton Famous Five YA adventure. I really loved it. What did it do so well? 👇🧵

What our panelists thought about Mordicax by @MarkOfAScribe "Hooked by first sentence." "It's engaging from the beginning to the end of the excerpt, with good flow and pace. It is very well written." "Excellent."

This is such an amazing experience for new authors. Don’t second guess your creativity and work over-thinking it. You will be amazed the by the books you discover and friends you will make! I only wish there was a way to enter (or something similar) for series.
