Review

Praise for the Renshai Chronicles:
 
“Delightful fantasy, featuring sympathetic characters, magical battles galore, edge-of-seat suspense, and truly impressive worldbuilding. Complex, intricate, by turns challenging and rewarding, this is ultimately quite a satisfying fantasy reading experience.” —VOYA
 
“Reichert has the uncanny ability to sustain unremitting horror and suspense—for over 700 pages, mind.... Altogether magnificent. The tangled interrelationships, including a tangled romance, are as fascinating as her enthusiastic descriptions of bloody, bloody battles. Her mastery of military matters is quite incredible.” —Kliatt
 
“[Reichert’s] most ambitious and satisfying work to date.” —SF Chronicle
 
“Handled with literary skill and folkloric scholarship that further raises the level of suspense.” —Booklist
 
“[Reichert’s] best book to date and one of the best fantasy reads of the year.... Excellent high fantasy.” —South Bend Tribune
