The Thirteenth Daughter of the Moon — Steven Nightingale

In this new tale, the acclaimed author of The Lost Coast continues the rollicking and amorous Pacific journey of our unlikely band of travelers. Joined by a magical puffin, a blind poet named Homer, and a forlorn prophet named St. Francis of Assisi, the troupe travels to the Land of the Dead in their caravan of dilapidated cars and trucks, armed with stories to fight off the enveloping darkness as they search for the Lost Coast.

With dazzling language and bursts of imaginative wit, The Thirteenth Daughter of the Moon is a wildly engaging tale that weaves philosophical nuance and romantic intrigue into a hoot and howl of a journey through real and imagined truths. Delightful, sexy, and entertaining, this is a highly literate mystic adventure that is sure to win over a faithful and enchanted audience.
