Maximus in Catland
David Garrett Izzo
Honorable Mention: London Book Festival for General Fiction - 2011
"Maximus in Catland has all the necessary ingredients for a successful fairy tale: good and evil, unrequited love and loving loyalty, heroism and ancient wisdom. When one spells the name of the cruel and avaricious human leader backwards, the fable becomes parable, and, much like C.S. Lewis's Narnia books, can be interpreted as straightforward fantasy or something a little deeper." -Jenny Ivor, Rambles
