Review

PRASIE FOR THE GUILD OF ASSASSINS: "Epic fantasy readers will love this action-packed adventure of elite warriors and romance!" - Amy Raby, author of the Hearts and Thrones series. PRAISE FOR THE BLADES OF THE OLD EMPIRE: "Both Kyth and Ellah are likeable characters and it is a joy to follow their stories - There is a fairly even balance between the emotional aspects of the story and some fast-paced, ninja-style fight scenes, which leads to this being a pleasant, easy read and an entertaining story. A solid start to what looks to be an exciting series." British Fantasy Society "This is a magnificent work of literature. You get fast paced travel with political intrigue and danger, amazing martial arts fights of extreme skill, cultural immersion from around the world, and a little hint of romance without ruining the tough fighter feel - I really cannot express enough times how highly I recommend this story to everyone." - In Pursuit of My Own Library "This book is action packed from the very first page, and is a good start to a series that I will look forward to reading more of." - Avid Fantasy Reviews
