Empire of Ivory
"Novik's influences run the gamut from Jane Austen to Patrick O'Brian, with a side trip through Anne McCaffrey. Her books are completely involving and probably addictive, their central conceit explored in clever detail with a great deal of wit and historical insight."
-San Francisco Chronicle
"So realistic that it drowns disbelief . . . first-class in every respect."
-Booklist (starred review)
