They killed the king.  They pinned it on two men.
They chose poorly.

"As far as adventure novels go, this one is among the most exciting and intriguing I've read. The pages practically turn themselves as a motley cast of characters journeys and cascades through Melengar, gradually discovering more twists which impact the course of their journey, while the author slowly reveals secrets that keep the reader guessing and building tension to a satisfying climax and ending."

-- Paul Dunlap, Amazon.com

"From the first chapter to the last, the plot twisted and turned in unexpected directions. It takes a great writer to weave a tale that surprises me, that keeps me in suspense, that keeps me reading late into the night...and Michael J. Sullivan is a great writer. "

  -- Dee Marie, Author of The Sons of Avalon

"I found myself enjoying this a lot. It started off fast, kept up a brisk pace, was full of surprises, and even got better toward the end. The ending was neither too predictable nor dependent on some sudden deus ex machina plot twist -- both of which can detract from an otherwise good book. Instead, it was surprising but still grew "naturally" out of what had happened up until that point."
