“I chose “Midwinter” … as the winner because the story captured me from the beginning.
The familial conflict that arises from the way war reshapes each of the characters’ lives, as well as the larger devastating consequences of violence, build to an explosive climax.
Moylan creates believable characters and the imagery from the final scene leaves a strong impression.
“Midwinter” is a powerful story that will make readers hold their breath as they flip to the final page.”
