“Questions of Perspective is an existential buddy novel driven by likable heroes, poignant moments, and unexpected humor that fans of The Blues Brothers and Neil Gaiman’s American Gods might appreciate.”
–IndieReader
“This is a remarkable piece of fiction that everyone should read at least once in their lives.”
–Readers’ Favorite (5/5 star review)
“Maunz develops a plot so engrossing that you’ll be hard pressed to catch your breath between chapters, especially as you approach the novel’s seismic conclusion. Awash with emotion but never drowning in sentimentality, Hyphenated Relations is like the warm bubble bath you’ll never want to leave.”
–Indies Today
“This is a fantastic well-written book about family — sometimes the family you create out of the people you love can be more meaningful than those that are related to you by blood.”
