Praise for Grey Sister
"Vivid worldbuilding and fast-paced action...Readers who
loved Red Sister will find this second series outing even
more compelling."—Library Journal (starred review)
"Once again, Lawrence combines great world building and dynamic
characters to craft an exciting, gritty fantasy
novel."—Booklist (starred review)
"Lawrence’s suspenseful account of Nona’s efforts to complete her
training and gain control over her powers balances action and
introspection, and will keep readers hooked."—Publishers Weekly
Praise for Red Sister
"Fabulous, in-depth world building, great characters, and as always
with Lawrence, plotting that is fresh and unpredictable...If you
like fresh, take-no-prisoners fantasy, this is for you."—Rick
Riordan, #1 New York Times bestselling author
of The Burning Maze
“Dark, passionate, tense, with a female hero anyone could relate
to—I was utterly fascinated! This is no pretty, flowery tale,
but one of vastly different people struggling to survive when
a hostile government comes to power.”—Tamora Pierce,
#1 New York Times bestselling author of Battle
Magic
“The lyrical excellence of previous books is present in full force
here and it’s fair to say that Mark Lawrence has evolved into a
master of his craft. In Red Sister he has produced a
novel that is as thought provoking as it is entertaining, and as
poignant as it is ferocious. Highly recommended.”—Anthony
Ryan, New York Times bestselling author of The
Legion of Flame
“In this stunning, action-filled series launch, Lawrence ('Broken
Empire' trilogy) establishes a fantastic world in which religion
and politics are sharp as swords, with magic and might held in the
hands of wonderful and dangerous women. Impatient George R.R.
Martin fans will find this a pleasing alternative until the next
installment in his “A Song of Ice and Fire” saga arrives.”—Library
Journal (starred review)
