“Maggie knows Quicksilver is more than just a violin. There is power here, as there is in Kara, and she knows she must protect them both from the evil that stalks them from the moment Kara and Quicksilver enter her shop. Maggie knows she must gather her forces for a desperate battle against evil. For it now walks the streets of modern New York in the form of Lucien Blanc, and he wants what he senses behind the walls of Yesterday’s Dreams, and he wants the power he senses in Kara O’keefe.

Danielle Ackley-Mcphail turns fantasy to plausible reality in Yesterday’s Dreams. The characters in this story are so charming and alive they spring from the story to haunt and taunt like a soft Irish mist long after the final page is read. I found Yesterday’s Dreams a delightful page turning adventure into imagination, and certainly look forward to reading more works by this author.

“Yesterday's Dreams is a promising debut novel that anyone with an interest in Irish folklore would enjoy. It's got evil gods and good Irish fairies battling it out in modern day New York over a young woman's prized magical heirloom, a violin. There's a lot of promise for an even better sequel, which I know the author is working on, but I'm not sure if it's published yet.
I briefly reviewed this book on my blog a couple years ago and the author left some comments for me. She seems cool, so I encourage everyone to buy Yesterday's Dreams to support her future writing efforts. ”
