PRAISE FOR THE BOOK
“Varied, vivid landscapes will entice discerning
fantasy readers, and beefy vocabulary keeps the narrative hearty. A
marriage of equality among fantasy, mythology, action and same-sex
romance. (Fantasy. 14 & up)”
~ Kirkus Reviews
“Suspenseful,
edgy, and emotional.”
~ 2014 Rainbow Awards Judges Honorable Mention
“What
makes this book different is the quality of the prose and the character of
Aerander. I found myself not wanting to stop reading and marked this
author as one to follow.”
~ Reviews by Amos Lassen
