What We Think

'Fool Moon' is a refreshingly non-woke urban fantasy novel. It focuses on storytelling, character growth, and classic genre fun rather than checking ideological boxes. A solid pick for readers who miss books written before everything got so agenda-driven.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

In 'Fool Moon,' the story centers on character and plot over any identity politics. Characters have flaws, struggle, and succeed or fail based on choices and skill. No evidence of casting or character creation based on forced identity factors. Good old-fashioned storytelling clearly takes precedence.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional values such as friendship, law enforcement, and personal ethics are woven throughout. Masculinity is presented without apology, and there’s no effort to subvert gender roles for the sake of scoring modern points. The use of folklore is respectful, staying true to established mythologies.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The book cheerfully permits a variety of worldviews, with no strawman caricatures for traditional perspectives. Characters disagree, clash, and debate without preachiness or monolithic wokeness. If only more modern fantasy could say the same.
