“Rebecca Kightlinger is a weaver of earth magic and a mixer of potions, and her suspenseful and magical chronicle mixes up a brew of destiny and reckoning, tradition and dreams. As the timeless tale of the coming of age of Megge of Bury Down unfolds through the centuries, it offers readers a truth as unchanging as change: that accepting ourselves is the key to claiming our power.”
                              Annie Finch, author of Among the Goddesses

"With its matrilineal history of secrets passed down by complex, hardened, loving women, its touches of magic, and its skillful attention to historical detail, Megge of Bury Down is a wonderful debut. Megge is a protagonist easy to fall in love with, to root for, to worry about, and when dark forces enter her world Kightlinger’s storytelling abilities shine. This novel manages to be full of careful character studies, and yet also shot through with dramatic tension that is certain to keep readers turning the pages. It's a full, satisfying novel that will, at the end, leave you hungry for the next installment."
                       David Anthony Durham, author of Pride of Carthage 

"...This would be a masterwork as the culmination of a series, but for a first novel, projected into a saga of three, it is simply stunning."
                Boman Desai, author of The Memory of Elephants  and TRIO, a Novel Biography of the Schumanns and Brahms
​
"... In a timeless yet also timely story, Kightlinger's heroine rallies supernatural strength and all matter of healing arts to find her path toward protecting books, the land, and most of all her fellow women ... Readers will not forget the women of Bury Down."
                      Elizabeth Searle, author of We Got Him  and librettist for Tonya and Nancy: The Rock Opera
