Northern Lights: 20 MinnSpec Tales ToC: #19. "The Robber King and the Blood Orange Tree" by Maggie Della Rocca

I've know Maggie online and in person for a long time. Before we meet in person through MinnSpec, we were also on The Online Writers Workshop together. Maggie, besides being a strong writer, is also great with the critiques. A friendly demeanor and being widely read makes Maggie a treasure to the group.

I loved "The Robber King and the Blood Orange Tree" when I first read it. Everything about it is pitch-perfect. Both fantasy and a fairytale, you are able to identify and sympathize with the beleaguered characters quickly. They face real dangers and solve them with courage and sacrifice. I promise you, "The Robber King and the Blood Orange Tree" will not disappoint you.

"The Robber King and the Blood Orange Tree" was previously published in Andromeda Spaceways Inflight Magazine # 36, June 2008.
