"[Abercrombie has] begun breaking his own rules. And succeeding
wildly at it. ... [R]arely has Abercrombie had so much fun while
rollicking through his colorful cast's foibles and witty dialogue -
and rarely has he dished out so much straight-for-the-heart
poignancy."--The A.V. Club
"Abercrombie writes fantasy like no one else."--Guardian (UK)
"Exhilarating... Abercrombie's knack for wit and grit holds your
attention throughout, and his eye for character means that there's
heart as well as muscle."--SFX (UK)
"Imagine The Lord of the Rings as directed by Kurosawa."--Lev
Grossman, Wall Street Journal on The Heroes
"Magnificent, richly entertaining"--Time on The Heroes
"New, fresh, and exciting."--The Independent (UK)
"Pointed, driven, and sharp."--Locus on Red Country
