Review "Four rival queens, civil war, vengeful ghosts, lethal mists, torture, madness...[and] she does not stint on her characters. Each one is a complicated, sympathetic individual with intelligible motivations despite their often bloody deeds. As the story digs into the legendary history of Fennbirn's matriarchal culture...it gains greater depth and richness. Yet this world remains harsh, dark, and graphically violent, filled with impossible choices and dreadful sacrifices; As everyone fights, betrays, or tries to flee, all are inevitably drawn to the climactic clash that leaves no one unscathed."-- "Kirkus Reviews" About the Author Kendare Blake holds an MA in creative writing from Middlesex University in northern London.
