"As I turned the pages of "Dancing in the Arms of Orion" I was fascinated, thrilled, terrified, and finally walking on air. It's a beautiful story that I'll want to read again and again."

Mark A. Roeder, author of the series, "Gay Youth Chronicles"

"Stephen R. Moore's debut novel, "Dancing in the Arms of Orion, " is a solid work of fiction in the tradition of --Mark Roeder's "Gay Youth Chronicles. " Told from the narrative point of view of high schooler Daniel Peterson as he comes out to himself, his family, and his friends, the author has managed nicely to create a multidimensional character with internal conflicts, personality traits, and a voice that rings true throughout the book. Secondary characters also ring true, which is saying a great deal about Moore's potential as a writer. A good first effort."

--Ronald L. Donaghe, author of the series, "The Continuing Journals of Will Barnett"
