Seeds of Betrayal
Seeds of Betrayal (2003)
(Winds of the Forelands, book 2)
David B Coe
"War and politics, love and magic, all drawn in detail against a vividly imagined feudal background. A complex and excellent book."
Kop
Kop (2007)
(Kop, book 1)
Warren Hammond
"Kop is about as good as noir crime gets since Dashiel Hammett stopped writing. Yes I know what I just said."
Elom
