    Moses Ludel’s first novel, Indra’s Net, has received a four star review from ForeWord Magazine. ForeWord is the industry go-to for authoritative reviews of independently published books, and Trafford knows that a four star rating means Ludel has penned a true gem in his novel that addresses family, culture, and the bonds of history. From ForeWord:

    Author Ludel is one of the few modern authors to truly understand the vicious contempt in which the Imperial Japanese held enemy soldiers who surrendered in particular, and non-Japanese races in general. The descriptions of battlefield conduct are chilling. However, the anguish of Japanese-Americans interned in camps in the United States is just as convincingly written. The omniscient narrator of Indra’s Net is not only all-seeing, but all-compassionate, but without falling into sentimentality[…]this comprehensive novel reads like a history book without the boring bits, covering much of the ground of the world’s past—some of it scarcely disturbed by American boots. Teachers and librarians should find it of particular interest. An engaging, satisfying, and richly lengthy read.

    Congratulations to Mr. Ludel. Read the review in full here.
