She's always been a creative powerhouse,  and I'm excited by what she's going to do as a writer of epic fantasy.  She should be on everyone's radar as one of the great new writers of the  genre. -- Paul Cornell, author of London Falling\u003cbr\u003eAll I \u003ci\u003eknow \u003c\/i\u003eis that Rebecca Levene has written the most stunning first volume epic fantasy since \u003ci\u003eGame of Thrones\u003c\/i\u003e. It's a little bit grimdark, a little bit epic, and a whole lot of incredible. If George R.R. Martin wrote \u003ci\u003eThe Night Circus\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eSmiler's Fair\u003c\/i\u003e would be the result. Go. Buy. It. * Staffer's Book Review *\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSmiler's Fair\u003c\/i\u003e is the epic fantasy I've been waiting for - riveting, compelling and \u003ci\u003eadventurous\u003c\/i\u003e. * Pornokitsch *\u003cbr\u003eFans of either Abraham or Abercrombie-fans of fantasy full stop, in fact-will find lots to like in \u003ci\u003eSmiler's Fair\u003c\/i\u003e. Its setting, its narrative, its characters-unlikeable as they are-all impress immensely, developed as they are with depth and discerning detail. In truth, the only complaint I'd make about the book is that there isn't more of it. * Tor.com *\u003cbr\u003eWe can judge other-world fantasy by the extent we want to return to it - and I can't wait to book my ticket back to the next episode of this outstanding, multi-stranded debut. * Daily Mail *\u003cbr\u003eLittle by little, as the narrative twists and turns, Levene reveals the depth and complexity of her created world and leaves the reader eager for the next instalment. * Guardian *\u003cbr\u003eThis book is a perfect blend of epic and 'gritty' fantasy, combining the best aspects of the two genres. * Mithril Wisdom *\u003cbr\u003eThe first volume of \u003ci\u003eThe Hollow Gods \u003c\/i\u003eis consistently surprising, packing in plenty of character development, fast and brutal action. * SFX *\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hodder \u0026 Stoughton","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49408399737175,"sku":"9781444753714","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781444753714.jpg?v=1730502765","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/smilers-fair-9781444753714","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
