Praise

“Kerr’s Deverry novels are my favorite of the post-Tolkien modern fantasy novels. The landscape is utterly real, and the story is gritty, emotional, complex, an doriginal in execution and setting. This is one tale that truly needs to be told in multiple volumes.” —Kaite Elliott

“One of the best sword-and-sorcery novels I have read in some time.” —Andre Norton

“No one does real, live, gritty Celtic fantasy better than Katherine Kerr.” —Judith Tarr


“Much as I dislike comparing anything to The Lord of the Rings, I have to admit that on this occassion, it’s justified.” —Interzone

“There is a solid depth to Deverry and its inhabitants that make it seem very real. [Kerr’s] also a master at creating tension, then balancing it with aquiet or humorous moment.” —Starlog

“Kerry fluently and gracefully limns her Celtic-based medieval world, depicting attractive and colorful men, women, and elves.” —Publishers Weekly

“An epic high fantasy plot that is absolutely spellbinding.” — Midwest Book Review
