On the wild coast of 1820s Ireland, sixteen-year-old Morrigan Lane hears the sea’s call—and her ancestors' voices. Born a seeker in the mystical lands of her Celtic heritage, Morrigan dreams of adventure, breaking free from the restrictions of village life and sailing beyond the horizon.
But Morrigan finds herself pulled into a mysterious journey when a haunting vision of the Irish sea god beckons her into his shadowy world. Against the backdrop of Ireland's rugged cliffs and ancient stone circles, she must navigate myth and reality, confronting age-old traditions, family secrets, and the fierce expectations placed upon her.
A Moon in All Things is a spellbinding tale of Celtic magic, forbidden dreams, and the resilience of the human spirit.
Fans of Outlander’s Claire Fraser and The Frozen River’s Martha Ballard will enjoy Comeau’s Morrigan Lane, who is fiercely devoted to discovering her healing gifts while those in power call them “dangerous.”

Fans of Outlander’s Claire Fraser and The Frozen River’s Martha Ballard will enjoy Comeau’s Morrigan Lane
who is fiercely devoted to discovering her healing gifts while those in power call them “dangerous.”
In this fantasy novel, Comeau uses the Irish setting ... and tales of the Otherworld and Tuatha dé Danann to craft an ethereal, fablelike narrative. Morrigan, ... friends, family, and fellow villagers, come alive ... fitting perfectly into the picturesque village ... Morrigan’s frustration with the imposed limits on her gender adds a fascinating dimension to the spooky tale.”—Kirkus Reviews
“Atmospheric, subtle, and captivating”—Foreword Reviews
“Tears, sighs, fabulous!” — Geralyn White Dreyfous, Academy Award-winning film producer
“A writer should be able to ‘dance with a pen’ according to Nietzsche. Jennifer Comeau passes with flying colors with A Moon in All Things. This work is not formulaic magic realism, but rather reality as magic. This is a generous, warm-hearted, and very well researched novel and the reader will want more.” —Tom Bancroft, former book critic
“An excellent and thoroughly enjoyable read. I felt fully immersed in Comeau’s story world and loved the details of sea life and old Irish culture that are inherent to the piece…the map of the village was wonderful. …This is fantastic work.” —Ink & Insights Competition (Score: 246/250)
“Jennifer E Comeau has crafted a brilliantly written book of magic and healing that I could barely put down. In a time when we sorely need to wake up to the healing properties of plants and spirits of the land, this book will inspire many to open up to the invisible realms around us who are calling us back Home to the wise ways. I am certain that this novel will become a classic along the lines of The Mists of Avalon.” — Mare Cromwell, author of The Great Mother Bible, and Gaia Mystic
“Comeau delivers a beautifully crafted historical fantasy infused with lyricism and Celtic magic. [The] heroine's viewpoint is consistently engrossing, allowing readers full access to her internal life, as well as a vicarious connection to the natural world that so informs her character.” — Booklife Prize
“Captivated by lucid prose and an irresistible tale of high stakes and true love, I started reading A Moon in All Things in the morning, continued into the afternoon and evening, and finished it in a weekend with a grateful sigh. This book will enthrall any reader who has wrestled with following her own path. As a coming-of-age tale that dives deeply into questions of home, tradition, and calling, it will stay with me for a long, long time.” —Jena Schwartz, writing coach and author, Why I was Late for Our Meeting. Don’t Miss This.
“This book brims with life, magic, and a flow back to the forces of nature we have forsaken. Oh my.” — Ellen Kleiner, former publishing editor
