Reviews

“….Most will relish getting such a big, fantastical setting to wander through. The book’s greatest strength is the author’s evident love of its world—lavish meals and gorgeous landscapes are described with the same immersive brio as dragons’ scales and faeries’ wings, and someone gets called a ‘villainous hedge-born varlet.’ The novel is, in the most complimentary sense of the term, a fairy tale for adults; read it aloud to someone before bedtime.

A thoroughly engrossing high-fantasy saga.”
