Excerpts from science fiction and fantasy author
Piers Anthony's review in his July '12 newsletter:
I like this novel...this is a novel that needs finding...It is well crafted, well developed, and supremely compelling...It’s a nice interweaving of the elements, with a hint of romance. If you want a story that will keep you nervous until the end, this is the one.
