Reader Reviews for works by Mary Rajotte

“In Bleak Midwinter, her short “The Stone Mother” concerns the same theme: worshiping an old god to bring prosperity to the land. Mary’s voice remains as authentic as ever.”

– Austrian Spencer

The Blight of Black Creek”… stands out as one of (Mary Rajotte’s) best. It was breathtakingly beautiful, taking on themes of family, tradition, love, and resilience. As soon as I finished, I read it a second time.”

– Holley Cornetto, The Horror Tree
