– Nancy Springer, author of The Enola Holmes Mysteries

– Publishers Weekly
“Two things really set Forging a Nightmare apart. One is the majority-Black cast of characters, welcome and overdue. The other: horses… Everything moves at a satisfyingly snappy pace – 4 stars.”
– SFX Magazine
“If you ever wondered what it would be like if Good Omens was mashed up with The Black Stallion, with a dash of Loki, then this is the book for you!”
– BookRiot
“Jackson aces bringing in mythological and religious references to create a complex cosmology for her world, while also grounding the human characters through relationships that spiderweb out from the main cast. It’s an excellent debut that meshes crime fiction and horse novels with the apocalypse, and the ending promises more to come.”
– Den of Geek
“Man’s best friend is his Nightmare, provided he proves worthy of the ride, in this thrilling urban-fantasy debut. Jackson opens Hell’s stable door and releases fallen angels and demons onto each fast-moving page.”
– RWW Greene, author of The Light Years
“Christian, Greek, and Norse mythologies combine to create a stunning depiction of Heaven and Hell in this action-packed novel about an apocalypse angel and a special-ops officer turned warrior horse. You won’t want to miss this hell of a ride!”
– Reese Hogan, author of Shrouded Loyalties
