Reviews and awards
"The Stars Edge series presents the rollicking queer tale of a choleric protagonist who’s hard to like. What on Earth—and off it—is going to happen next? ... you won’t be able to resist looking for the last of the series, so have the next book ready. Against the odds with such a curmudgeonly lead, author V S Holmes hooks in readers with a masterly hand at Strangers."
- Aurealis Magazine
"You can tell V has an incredible grasp of who these characters are and we benefit from that right away. There are so many snappy bits of dialogue and interaction, there is what I call great over the shoulder moments that turn us around and look back at this or that, and there is this underlying tension that really is handled so well in the writing. It's nice when an author treats its audience like grown-ups. I also love that this story gives us just enough when we need it and so much just when we think we are about to settle in. It's easy to picture all this in your head, very cinematic, and a great puzzle as well.”
-Joe Compton, author of Amongst the Killing
“Watching Nel open up as her world expands is a real treat. As she's put in fragile positions, she's forced to accept feelings she's locked behind a door of anger. This makes her character all the more complex, and interesting. As for the adventure? No spoilers, but it's a wild ride.”
