Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"FOREST MAGE presents a darker and more complex hero in Nevare . . .Ms. Hobb has given a lot of thought to her world and characters. Dark as they are, they stand out like jewels on velvet."--Romance Reviews Today

"At once harrowing, unexpected, and morally complex. . . . I'm eager to see what happens next."--Locus

"Displaying Hobb's gift for creating unusual and compelling worlds, [Shaman's Crossing] maintains her high standard of storytelling."--Library Journal

"Fast action, deep emotional bonds and a great ending...[I] encourage you to check out Dragon Haven."--Blogcritics.com

"[D]elicate, vivid language . . . [a] fine example of how to avoid a middle-book slump."--Booklist

"All [of the stories] are beautifully written parables, expressing a clear message but managing not to be too offensively preachy about it....You don't have to be a fan of either of the author's identities to enjoy this collection--but you may become one."--Kirkus Reviews on THE INHERITANCE

"Taken as a whole, the two voices represented here provide a richly textured body of work from one of the genre's most accomplished writers. VERDICT Fans of both Lindholm and Hobb will appreciate the diversity of this one-woman showcase."--Library Journal on THE INHERITANCE

"One author, two pseudonyms, and a wonderful collection of short stories...an exciting addition to the fantasy genre. Her stories are fresh and surprising as she weaves in subtle twists."--Portland Book Review on THE INHERITANCE

"A priceless reading experience."--Paul Goat Allen on THE INHERITANCE

"An engaging, entertaining introduction to both sides of the author's work."--Booklist (starred review) on THE INHERITANCE
