In his first book, Under Maui Skies and Other Stories, Wayne Moniz wrote seven tales of his Maui home. In this new book, Beyond the Reef: Stories of Maui in the World, the prize-winning author introduces eight new narratives. Like all his previous works, the Maui native has based these stories on the people, events, and issues of Hawai i, with the aim of preserving its rich past. This time some mo olelo occur beyond the Valley Isle. The new settings - the Big Island, O ahu, California, and even Europe - are all, nevertheless, anchored in the writer's birthplace. As in his former anthology - 2010 Readers' Choice Book of the year by the Hawai i Book Publishers Association - each yarn is of a different genre: ghost story, comedy, crime, a Western, and this time, includes several new types: a tragedy, an inspirational story, a coming-of-age tale, and a sports reminiscence.
