Even as she was writing loving descriptions of applewood smoked bacon, luxury real estate and computer parts, advertising copywriter (and longtime illustrator) Eva Sandor had a feeling she would someday create a fictional world full of humor, speculation and joyous wordplay. Join her there and treat yourself to "funny fantasy that hides a serious soul".
"The ending is surprisingly deep and leaves the reader wanting even
more." -Reedsy Discovery
A character-driven romp through a world of magic, fantastic
creatures, and subterfuge....Sandor's prose shines brightest when
portraying story and character through dialogue, and crafting a
beautiful, rich world while effortlessly switching between tense
conversations rife with undertone and subtlety and more
lighthearted, comical scenes that build character and entertain.
-The BookLife Prize
Offers many surprises to delight literary fantasy readers looking
for far more than an adventure tale....There's simply not enough
literary humor in the fantasy genre; but Eva Sandor fills this gap
with another adventure story that should be read closely, so as not
to miss any of the tongue-in-cheek humor (both overt and subtle)
that graces its characters and lines. -Diane Donovan, Bookwatch
Read the book and loved it. Though much darker than the first
novel, I actually enjoyed it more...There is still the wit and
charm in bucket loads, with added emotion, mystery and intrigue.
-John Derek, Netgalley
It does point firmly into the next book... which I'm now looking
forward to: -) -Jim Webster, author of the Tallis Steelyard
seriesThe writing is intelligent, but not out of reach. -Advance
reader Mike Z.A wonderful collection of characters and the use of
language is brilliant. -Advance reader Namoi L.Love, action, drama
and best of all...you get lost in Eva's world! This is number 2 in
the series and it lives up to all the reviews so far. I loved it so
much I couldn't put it down! -Advance reader Rikki M.Comical,
magical, witty, and even dark...a fast paced journey leaving you
yearning for more each chapter and then the next in the series.
Great development of characters with an intense strong female
protagonist. -Advance reader Robert A.You dont realize how four
different stories turn into one entwined story until you do notice
it! The transitions are seamless. -Advance reader Gabriella B.
