Praise for Kingdom of Ash and Briars, Hannah West’s debut novel and the first book of the Chronicles of Nissera:
★ “West mixes fairy-tale charm with contemporary mysticism to create a world both terrifying and wonderful.” —Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review
“Classically crafted high fantasy – a call to love, a call to power, a crown at stake, a family at war – where magic runs through every word. Fans of The Shannara Chronicles or The Grisha Trilogy, look no further.” —Margaret Stohl, #1 New York Times best-selling author of the Beautiful Creatures novels
“Brilliant, fascinating, and utterly impossible to put down. Hannah West makes a triumphant entry into the world of fairy tale retellings with one of the best books I’ve ever read.” —C.J. Redwine, New York Times best-selling author of The Shadow Queen
“Like Cashore and McKinley, Nix and Novak, Hannah West has crafted a tale both fresh and familiar—a fantasy epic lush in detail and breathlessly enchanting, with an indomitable heroine at its heart.” —Claire Legrand, author of Winterspell
