Intriguing worldbuilding and appealing characters set the stage and pique the reader's interest for sequels.- "Publishers Weekly" Edwards's gorgeous debut presents an alternate modern world that is at once unusual and familiar, with a grand interplay of powers formed by family and the supernatural. When thrown in beside fascinating magical systems, breathtaking prose, and a relentless plot-this is the tale of Atlantean magic we didn't know we wanted.-Scott Reintgen, author of 'Nyxia' "Publishers Weekly" Edwards's debut combines swashbuckling action, political intrigue, and romance into a fast-paced and enjoyable adventure. The central characters, Rune and Brand, combine the loyalty of Frodo and Samwise with the sacrilege of a pairing like Tyrion and Bronn. We're invited into an alternative, historical world of staggering breadth and realization. Edwards takes all the familiar pawns of urban fantasy and makes royalty of them in his debut. A fast, fun urban fantasy in a wonderfully original world, full of slam-bang magic and interesting characters.-Django Wexler, author of 'The Thousand Names' "Publishers Weekly" Absolutely sensational.
