NPR Best Book of 2017 An Alex Award Winner "A remarkable writer."--Neil Gaiman, bestselling author of American Gods "This is an amazing book filled with magic, consequences, and what happens when you fight rather than turning away. This is Omelas, for magic. This is the price that must be paid. This is the story the others forgot to tell."--Fran Wilde, award-winning author of Updraft and Horizon. "Strong characters and a captivating revenge plot make this a fun, absorbing read for those who like their magic, and their magicians, dark and twisty."--Kirkus "The characters and the Unseen World flourish in her gorgeous prose."--Publishers Weekly "Howard's vengeance-fueled urban fantasy is stylish, macabre, and spellbinding."--Booklist "Imagine the dueling club in Harry Potter all grown up and out for blood."--Shelf Awareness "Howard's magical world is wonderfully vivid; the magic itself engages all the senses, making each spell feel tangible. The disturbing, thrilling, and lovely moments pulse with striking language, and the fast-paced story is polished with a bit of humor that helps keep the novel light and fun. This riveting book is perfect for readers who want to escape."--San Francisco Book Review "A really good book. Its characters come vividly alive, its prose is precisely observed, and it's both tense and incredibly compelling."--Locus Magazine "Fun and fast-paced read, and is impossible to look away from."--Tor.com
