“Exciting swordplay, elegant prose, and detailed relationships make this latest sword-and-sorcery fantasy a must-read.” —Romantic Times

“[Sword-Maker] has more hairpin turns and slippery twists than a mountain road in a snowstorm.... I can’t wait to read the next book in this surprising and excellent series.” —American Fantasy
