Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"This novel took 10 years to research and write, according to publicity material; for readers at least, the author's arduous task results in a smashing success--it's an exceptionally compelling, brilliantly creative, and historically fine-tuned piece of work. The brilliance of the novel lies in how Clarke so completely and believably creates a world within a world..." - Booklist, starred review

"Clarke's imagination is prodigious, her pacing is masterly and she knows how to employ dry humor in the service of majesty." - The New York Times

"The most sparkling literary debut of the year." - Salon

"An instant classic, one of the finest fantasies ever written." - Kirkus Reviews, starred review
