Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Shawna Reppert, an award-winning author of fantasy and steampunk, is proud of keeping readers up all night and making them miss work deadlines. Her fiction asks questions for which there are no easy answers, while at the same time taking the reader on a fine adventure that grips them heart and soul and keeps them turning pages until the very end.

She shares her home with a black-and-orange cat named Samhain who occasionally takes over her blog.

In the past, she had occasionally been found in medieval garb on a caparisoned horse, throwing javelins into innocent hay bales that never did anything to her. More recently, she has been known to attend Victorian teas in her steampunk regalia.

She grew up in Pennsylvania, and now lives in the beautiful wine country of Oregon. Each has colored her writing in different ways.

    I was in the mood for something quick and easy to pick up and finish in one short go before my responsibilities started for the day. This fit the bill and I enjoyed it! It has a happy ending and feelings of found family which is rare in urban fantasy and even rarer to develop in a short story.
    TLDR: It's worth a read.

    A heartwarming tale with a surprising twist thrown in! It's a very good short story, that I honestly believe would also make a great opening chapter for a novel about the further adventures of Paddy and Doyle! :-D

    What a delightful gift for St. Patrick's Day! A warm, thoughtful, entertaining little gem. I think this story will prompt a new ritual on my part: celebrating the holiday by pouring myself a Guinness and re-reading We Don't Serve Your Kind. And FYI--if you haven't sampled Ms. Reppert's other work, go for it! The Ravensblood series and the Werewolves and Gaslight series are the best of contemporary urban fantasy and Victorian steampunk. Highly recommended.

    In the breadth of a short story, the author orchestrates a story about not judging a book by its cover. It's a great short story.

    An excellent short work where an Irish pub owner gets a lift when the wee folk give him a hand up. I enjoyed the development of the characters and how they connected. Definitely a good read for a winter evening.

    This delightful tale was read in one sitting and I thoroughly enjoyed it. While it is superficially amusing and playful, it is also thought provoking. Without any "spoilers" it brings one back to the philosophical question of who benefits most from a kind deed, the giver or the receiver?

    I was reminded of the expression "spread a little happiness" which it did and I am really pleased I read it. I shall look forward to more and longer works by this author.
