"Archer deviates away from the overly-simplistic and uniform children's book format, using his mixed media post-modern artistic style to create wonderful and captivating illustrations. The illustrations move with the story, giving the book a three-dimensional feel perfect to capture the reader's attention and pull them into the story."--Reader Z
"Luna Maris is written with curiosity and wonder, two things children need more of these days. The illustrations are captivating and fun, while the story keeps kids, even adults, wanting to read the story over and over."--Angelina Hicks
