Reviews

Praise for Blake Charlton:

Absolutely not to be missed
Kirkus Reviews

'Blake Charlton has created one of the few truly original magical systems we've seen in fantasy fiction I'm fascinated to see what happens next and will be following every word with the absorption of an apprentice spellwright. You will be, too' Tad Williams

'Nicodemus Weal is a protagonist that all of us can identify with. Spellwright features a unique system of magic and characters that are genuine inhabitants of that world. Spellwright is a letter-perfect story: an absorbing read and recommended.' Robin Hobb

An enthralling tale Terry Brooks

Vivid, intelligent, and painful in an authentically laudable way.
