“...a superbly atmospheric work of historical fiction with characters that, once met, are never forgotten.” ~ K.C. Finn, Readers’ Favorite Book Reviews (5 Stars)
Samuel and Aron Katz's fragile childhood connection is severed when Aron leaves pre-WWII Poland for Palestine, and yet again when Samuel is sent to an arctic Soviet Gulag. Now, Aron must decide how far he will go to save his younger brother.
From Poland to wartime Tel Aviv, from a frozen Soviet prison camp to Allied-controlled Iran, and deep into Mandatory Palestine's desperate preparations against Nazi invasion—Moon Path probes the ties that bind siblings and the forces that tear them apart.
“Deeply detailed, historical in nature and spanning a journey of epic proportions, Moon Path leads us by the hand through the horrors of WWII, with characters that are sensational... It is an intensive read but it’s one you won’t put down. This is drama, history, romance and action at its best, a story that will stay with you forever.” ~ Anne-Marie Reynolds, Readers’ Favorite Book Reviews (5 Stars)
EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS a compelling story set against the backdrop of 200 fateful days in 1942, when the Jews of Palestine lived in terror of a Nazi invasion. From the award-winning author of the bestselling Galerie comes fast-paced, character-driven historical fiction in the spirit of Ayelet Waldman's Love and Treasure, Tatiana De Rosnay's Sarah's Key, and Charles Belfoure's The Paris Architect.
“Steven Greenberg is a true wordsmith and provides a veritable banquet for the mind. He takes the reader on an epic journey personally, historically and geographically. Moon Path is an intense and deeply satisfying book, depicting an incredibly dark period in our history. It is historically accurate, written in detail and with depth. I have no hesitation in recommending it. It is a literary feast.” ~ Amanda Rofe, Readers’ Favorite Book Reviews (5 Stars)

My hands... I saw these most vividly. I looked down at them in wonder as it happened.
Because they weren’t really my hands. They were not the hands I’d brought from Vilnius, and certainly not those I’d had in Warsaw. The dirt on these hands had colonized the depths of the ragged fingernails, had swarmed into the vein-ringed chasms of the chapped skin. These hands were calloused, sickly, rough.
My hands were familiar with the cool obsidian of a fountain pen, with the warmth of coffee shop porcelain. They knew the silkiness of Danuta’s inner thigh much better than splinter-infested shovel handles, dented tin cups, and sweat-slick cervical tissue.
For these hands, I discovered with horror, were locked tight around a human neck.
I never knew the man’s name. I never cared. I’d woken with a start from a deep slumber, a sleep fueled by gulag exhaustion and starvation, and by the gut-wrenching seasickness from which I’d suffered since we came aboard the prison ship. But I hadn’t slept so deeply as to shut out the man who tugged at the rag-wrapped bundle on which my greasy head rested. That bundle contained my solitary remaining collared shirt, my spare socks, and the crusted oilskin that embraced my letters.
My letters!
I was on him in a moment, with an energy that rose from somewhere unnamed, somewhere I—even then—hoped never to revisit.

Author review: The translation itself was good enough, but our template, complete with [we thought] clear and simple formatting instructions, seems to have been completely ignored, causing us quite a bit of extra work on the back end. A well translated but poorly formatted document still makes for a very bad eBook, something translators should pay more attention to. It's why we provide the template. |
