“The plot springs from climax to climax as intrigues and secrets are unwound and revealed.” — Booklist
“His books are immersive, drawing the reader into his work, seducing them to not notice the time flying past them as they delve further into Williams’ imagination.” — Sacramento Book Review
"Perhaps the greatest thing I can say about Shadowheart is that through four long volumes of a story, Williams convinced me to care utterly for his characters and there’s a hole now in my life where they once lived. Few storytellers can do that. Williams does it with alarming regularity." — A Dribble of Ink
“Shadowrise and Shadowheart are as good an ending to a fantasy saga as I’ve ever had the pleasure of reading.” — Fantasy Book Critic
“Shadowheart was an immensely satisfying final entry to the series…. Anyone who likes their fantasy ‘Tolkienesque’ will be hard-pressed to find any author writing today better than Tad Williams.” — SFSite
“All four volumes of Shadowmarch are must reads for any fan of high fantasy.” — BookLoons
