Review

"Thousand Faces is perfect mix of western and horror genres...The story is fast-paced and dramatic, jumping around in time to present new revelations and tense, dreadful encounters... It also has a great ending, with a few surprises saved for the book’s gripping resolution."
- Grovel
"This book succeeds in telling its wide sweeping and epic story taking you to different times and places as any good historical fiction should."
- AiPT!
"Moral decay affects the characters throughout the tale, sparing few men and even grabbing a few supposedly innocent animals in its clutches."
- DoomRocket
