Kirkus reviewed Foundra: The Rift War

Today, the Kirkus review for my first novel (Foundra: The Rift War) just went live. It's great hearing the thoughts of a professional critic when it comes to my writing. It feels like I've stepped into the next stage of my professional writing career. Below is an excerpt:

"The story is a definitive space opera: beaucoup action with creatures and preternatural capabilities coupled with a bevy of romantic entanglements back on the good guys’ ship. Arriaga wisely concentrates on a select few of the many characters, and Soahc, Destroyer of Worlds, is a standout."
