Review
" As always, Brust invests Vlad with the panache of a Dumas musketeer and the colloquial voice of one of Zelazny's Amber heroes. This is a rousing adventure with enough humor, action, and sneaky plot twists to please newcomers as well as longtime series fans."
"-- Publishers Weekly" on "Dragon"
"A splendid caper that welcomes newcomers"-- "while existing fans will pounce."
"-- Kirkus Reviews"

"-- VOYA" on the Vlad Taltos series
