Reviews

"Cole weaves... a fantasy world that feels comfortably familiar, then goes to places you'd never expect. You won't stop turning pages until the stunning finish." --Peter V. Brett

"Brutal and lovely -- an inventive and poignant fantasy that's rich with keen characters, set in a vivid, fascinating world." --Cherie Priest

"A dark fantasy tale with sharp teeth and a hard punch. Heloise is the hero we need, and Myke Cole is the writer to bring her transformation to light." -- Chuck Wendig

"Intelligently written, fun, and brutal in equal measures." --Mark Lawrence
