"What reader has not wished to linger a little longer in the world of a beloved story? With a compendium of short stories and fragments--some previously published and some brand new--Turner invites her readers to do exactly that. . . . A reading experience that is as cozy as it is expansive, answering questions even as it provokes more. . . . A gift fans of the series will treasure." -- Kirkus Reviews
"Presented in this way, The Queen's Thief never technically has to end; it can be revisited like a beloved permanent collection, each return steering the reader (or its creator) into an unexpected new corner of discovery. . . . but then Turner wraps it all up into a new context that completely subverts our entire reading experience up until now. . . . Moira's Pen isn't an epilogue; if anything, it's more of a prologue, a potential new beginning--whether for novels or stories, it's too soon to say." -- Tor.com
