Trade Review
SPECTACULAR . . . I was hooked from page one and there is truly not enough time in the day to have read this one as quickly as I would have liked to. Great characters, twisty plots, cool fight scenes that are like a complicated song and dance, and an interesting world of different cultures clashing. The last quarter of this book was a ride. I cannot wait to see how this series ends. Devin Madson has created such a wonderful and evocative world -- SUPERSTARDRIFER
Set in an Asian-inspired world with echoes of ancient China and the Mongol Empire, this is a tale that hits all the right spots. Imaginative world-building, a pace that builds perfectly to a heart-pounding finale and captivating, believable characters. There's a lot to love here. Highly recommended -- John Gwynne on WE RIDE THE STORM
A complex tale of war, politics and lust for power -- GUARDIAN on WE RIDE THE STORM
