Review Quotes: "Donaldson proves once again that he is the quintessential fantasist and the true successor and heir to J.R.R. Tolkien."--BookPage
"Inventive characters and fantastical aladdinesque settings."--SF Site "Beguiling, intelligent and thought-provoking."--World-Herald, Omaha "Fans of Donaldson's longer fiction will dive right in...thoughtful, well-worked out, often fascinating yarns."--Kirkus Reviews "Donaldson's strength is in the worlds he creates, which are familiar enough to strike a chord in his reader, but different enough to present fascinating new sights and adventures."--Science Fiction Chronicle
