SFSite.com's John Enzinas reviews Mantids

"The real star of the book is not the narrator but the writing.  Dakron is a poet and his skill with words makes this book shine.  He pulls all of your senses in while describing a world awash with giant, man-crazy, killer mutant bugs who think like the humans they once were.  How can you not respect that level of skill?.... Read this book for the prose .... It's worth it."

Mahalo!

As they say in the land of Kona coffee--thanks to everyone who made "Mantids" happen, especially the fruitalicious Julia, Jerry and Jean Gold of Black Heron Press, major patron jimgermanbar, the Elliott Bay Book Co., Portland's Wordstock festival, and the online bloggers who kept my Google stats happening.
