"The Miracle Machine" Gets a 5 out 5 Review from Foreword/Clarion Review

"Like a constellation in which perception and purpose are stars, The Miracle Machine is a fantastic poetic work.

Marrying poetry with fantasy, Matthew Pennock’s The Miracle Machine is a phenomenal trip that loops through time, following love and searching for meaning."

—Foreword Review/Clarion Rating: 5 out of 5, Samantha Ann Ehle, Oct. 27, 2020
