Praise for the Inda series:
“The complexity and depth and inventiveness that mark a
first-rate fantasy novel.... This is the mark of a major work of
fiction.... You owe it to yourself to read Inda.” —Orson Scott
Card, New York Times-bestselling author of Ender's
Game
“Everything you want from a fantasy series—an interesting, fully
developed world with several languages, environments, and cultures,
a complex but not confusing plotline with a number of unexpected
twists, really well-written action scenes, and above all,
characters whose lives you follow and whose fates you care about.”
—Diana L. Paxson, bestselling author of Sword of Avalon
“Smith deftly stage-manages the wide-ranging plots with
brisk pacing, spare yet complex characterizations, and a narrative
that balances sweeping action and uneasy intimacy.” —Publishers
Weekly
“Pirates and plotters fill this swashbuckling sequel
to Inda.... It’s full of action, adventure,
and delightful larger-than-life characters.” —Locus
“All of the characters spring to life.... Smith’s rich details
and imagery tie this story together. Complex and compelling.” —San
Jose Mercury News
“[The] beautifully structured Inda series [comes] to
a resounding conclusion.” —Strange Horizons
