Trade Review"the series trends away from horror and further into dark fantasy territory with this volume, and we are here for it" - Barnes & Noble SFF Blog "The action is intense, with the high stakes necessary to really amp up the drama... I can't help but wonder about what will happen to the characters in the long run and I really want to know what happens next" - Girl Who Reads ; "The Barkeresque and Gaimanesque elements blend in an intriguing way during the story and make for an interesting read... Highly recommended!" Rising Shadow ; "Tim Lebbon knows how to spin a tale that envelops the reader in a world they know, and then twists that reality into a unique playground for his characters to battle monsters and create stories which always sidestep cliche....Lebbon has shown that he cannot write a story that bores readers, regardless of the genre. With this series, he mixes in the best of the genres he loves--horror, fantasy, and thriller/adventure--resulting in another winner. His writing keeps the story moving while his building of the world of the Kin is folded into the plot seamlessly." --Cemetery Dance
