Here’s the latest from readers and fans of Draakensky,
A Supernatural Tale of Magick and Romance.
Greetings,
Of the 56+ reviews Draakensky has on Amazon, which has gathered a 4.7 star rating, this customer review became the winner.
Joseph, Amazon Reviewer “Draakensky beckons to those who thrive on tricks of eerie landscapes and beguiling psychological tension, walking astutely on either side between horror and beauty. Paula Cappa immerses the reader into that strange and horrible immortality of the spectral. The novel balances the Gothic while remaining discomfited with a modern sensibility. Cappa inspires such clarity—owl magick, river spells, and necromancy forces—that readers become firmly plunged in a brilliantly imagined realm.”
Thank you to all the literary blogs that featured Draakensky.
Thriller Boulevard “There’s a seductive pull to Draakensky—not just in the romance, but in the way the estate itself seems to breathe. It’s the kind of book that makes you believe in hidden worlds just beyond our reach.”
Blue Reading Corner “If The Haunting of Hill House met Practical Magic at a windswept Gothic estate, you’d get something like Draakensky. It’s part eerie mystery, part romance, and fully committed to the strange and supernatural.“
Fantasy Souls “I didn’t realize how much I needed a book about a haunted windmill until I picked up Draakensky. It’s moody, magical, and has just the right amount of eerie romance to keep you hooked.”
Best Books in Town “At its heart, Draakensky asks a compelling question: How much of ourselves are we willing to risk for the unknown? Through Charlotte’s journey, Cappa explores the seductive and dangerous nature of power and desire.”
Red Book Stack “Draakensky is the kind of book you devour in one sitting. Atmospheric, mysterious, and with a love story tangled in magick, it’s perfect for fans of Gothic fiction who want a little extra enchantment.”
Jump A Book “Finally—a Gothic novel that acknowledges what we’re all really here for: creepy old estates, complicated witches, and a romance with just enough danger to keep things interesting. Draakensky delivers all that and a windmill with serious attitude.
Silver Book Mark “Look, if a haunted windmill estate, a mysterious sorceress, and a brooding love interest don’t sell you on Draakensky, I don’t know what will. It’s like stepping into a stormy Gothic daydream—moody, magical, and just a little wicked.”
TBM Horror Features “Draakensky is an atmospheric escape into a world where wind sorcery whispers secrets and magick shapes fate. The estate itself seems to breathe, its shadows hiding more than just old secrets. Cappa crafts a world where supernatural forces lurk just beneath the surface, tempting and testing. The novel doesn’t rely on jump scares or overt horror but instead weaves a hypnotic, atmospheric dread, reminiscent of classic Gothic tales like The Haunting of Hill House or Rebecca.”
The Secret Shelves “Draakensky wraps you in its eerie embrace. The wind howls, secrets swirl, and nothing is ever quite as it seems. If you like your Gothic tales with a side of supernatural danger, this one’s for you.”
Hidden Book News “There’s an allure to Draakensky that’s hard to shake—it feels like reading a spell. With each chapter, Cappa draws you closer to the heart of the estate’s dark magick, and by the end, you might find yourself glancing over your shoulder.”
Crystal Chapter Book “The wind is more than just weather in Draakensky—it’s a character in its own right. Cappa crafts a world where the breeze carries whispers of the past, and every gust pulls the reader deeper into a realm of mystery and magick.”
I have been receiving many comments about the title Draakensky for the magickal estate in Bedford, New York. Here’s a peek into how I came to discover the story of Draakensky, and its name—and where I met the ghost. Come with me on my cemetery walk.
“If there could ever be a dark whisper in the wind,
I am that darkness.”—The Ghost of Draakensky Windmill Estate.
