Riveting.' Kirkus Praise for The Demon King: 'The Demon King is a page-turner for any reader, regardless of age.' Robin Hobb 'Dozens of characters, complex and distinct in personality, are placed with jewel-like precision, set off by dark glints of villainy! [readers] will clamor for the sequel.' Publishers Weekly Praise for Cinda Williams Chima: 'Centuries of wizardly scheming, slavery and slaughter reap apocalyptic fallout in this final volume of Chima's trilogy! Heroes and villains alike are swayed by achingly human motivations into disastrous choices with devastating consequences!The resolution is like the end of childhood itself tentatively hopeful, if not triumphant. A superlative accomplishment.' Kirkus.
