Book #1
★★★★★ "If you, or someone you know is quieter than most, intelligent, observant, a sensitive, this book is a dream find... It is the journey of a shy girl stepping boldly into her personal power as life unfolds chaotically around her."
- GOODREADS REVIEW
★★★★★ "Wow. It's rare that I find a dystopian novel that is equally a utopian one. And this one is the most spiritual one I can remember reading in a while. This is especially poignant now with the situation around the world...
If you only read one dystopian novel this year - please make it this one! You won't be disappointed. "

Book #2
★★★★★ "Maya of the new world has been an incredible follow-on from Maya of the in-between...I didn't quite know where it would lead, but again, I was hooked from the first page and invited into a world of exploration and a beautiful, heart-felt journey.
I was lead, along with the characters who were already deep in my heart from Maya of the in-between through a mystical adventure. The deeper meanings and messaging in this book is truly where the wisdom, love and talent shine from the writer, Sita. It is brilliantly written and has impacted me deeply, following mayas journey has allowed me to explore myself and reflect honestly, especially on the environmental themes presented within the book and the truths they hold.
A true gift, and an invitation into a world much more than you can imagine. Thankyou, again, for this creation."

Book #3
★★★★★ "...There were so many points where I felt moved to tears and/goosebumps. It felt as if I was growing and maturing with her (Maya). Highly recommended to those who are passionate about metaphysics and intuition."
- GOODREADS REVIEW
★★★★★ “The writing is as beautiful as ever, and I'm particularly captivated the emotional and spiritual bonds between the characters and how they intertwine with their magical abilities, as well as the character development. Oh and I just adore Bear and Snow!
It's intriguing to observe how individuals' minds can become influenced by the Sky People, mirroring the effects of negativity on one's thoughts in the real world. The measures taken to safeguard their minds are impressive, serving as a reminder of the techniques I can employ to maintain a positive mindset.”

- GOODREADS REVIEW

Behind the Films
Mana & Sita Rose Bennett are a brother/sister creative duo. Their obsession with filmmaking began after being gifted an old-school video camera at around ten years old. Quirky homemade videos, and long bedroom chats about life, existence, nature, & consciousness developed into a passion for storytelling through multiple creative mediums.
While they co-write & envision ideas together, Mana is the tech and Sita is the creative behind their films.
Inspired by filmmakers like David Lynch, The Wachowski’s, Alejandro Jodorowsky, Brit Marling & Zal Batmangli, they lean towards a surrealist style, with mediative and transcendental undertones.
