December, 2019: Collecting some great reviews on Three Wells of the Sea: "I'm a sucker for a good portal-crossing adventure, so I tend to forgive a lot of flaws, but in this case I didn't have to. I'm blown away by Madden's brilliant writing. The details in the two worlds are so rich and convincing it's almost like reading history -- though highly entertaining at the same time! Her characters are many-layered and relatable, and their challenges are truly of mythic proportions. It's been a while since I dove immediately from the first book in a series to the next, but I'm already deep into 'The Salamander's Smile' and already looking forward to the third."

July, 2019: You can now order Halls of the Sunless as an ebook, or a paperback! Three Wells of the Sea is getting some great reviews for its audio version. Check it out.

"Without doubt this is the strongest volume in the series to date."
"The story [Animal] is poignant and hits home."
"The very competitive superstars of sci-fi & fantasy writers return once again."
"In “Animal” by Terry Madden, you’ll find a dystopian future where humanity has pushed all wildlife into human controlled preserves underground, where a child is so valuable that a would be mother will risk everything to have one."

The story is poignant and hits home.
