About Elizabeth Moon:

Excellent plotting and characters support the utterly realistic action sequences: swift, jolting, confusing, and merciless. Its a corker!Kirkus Reviews

Moon has created a richly imagined universe of different cultures, replete with intriguing characters and the sense of unlimited possibility that characterizes the most appealing science fiction.School Library Journal

Rip-roaring action and intriguing science and tactics . . . [a] grand space opera tour de force.Publishers Weekly

. . . the first work of high heroic fantasy I've seen that has taken the work of Tolkien, assimilated it totally and deeply and absolutely, and produced something altogether new and yet incontestably based on the master . . . [Moon's] military knowledge is impressive, her picture of life in a mercenary company most convincing. I'm deeply impressed.Judith Tarr
