Review
"This is rich and finely wrought writing, taking readers on a genuine journey of imagination" (Books for Keeps)
"This has one of the most compelling openings I've read . . . gripping yet dreamlike, frustrating yet marvellously suggestive" (Amanda Craig The Times)
"A true page-turner . . . the use of evocative language in setting powerful interplay of suspense, intrigue and action make for a fantastically readable sequel to The Cup of the World" (writeaway.org.uk)
"Tremendous pace . . . beautifully written" (Irish Times)
"This is a novel of epic proportions, in which a richly multi-coloured medieval setting is the background for a narrative of vibrant characters and passionate political debate" (Robert Dunbar TES)
