Editorial Reviews

Graphic novelist turned fantasy author Myrick releases the first installment of a promising trilogy...Of its manifold strengths, the novel is fluid and full of surprises...The author masterfully crafts vivid battle scenes and heart-pounding chases across oceans, over snow-peaked mountains and into city sewers. Neither diehard nor casual fantasy readers will be able to resist this trilogy's rousing start. An exemplar of storytelling and character-driven adventure.
