Praise for "Princess of Roumania"
"No one writes like Paul Park, and when he turns to magic, the
results are magical. "A Princess of Roumania "is weirder and wilder
than any fantasy you've read before and even those elements which
might have been familiar -- a princess, a werewolf, a jewel, a
gypsy, magic and murder -- are transformed into strangeness. Park's
characters, incidents, and images will stay with you long after
you've finished this book."-Karen Joy Fowler
""A Princess of Roumania" is at once a vastly ambitious and
passionately realized work of art, and immediately appealing in all
the ways that the heart-tugging matter of high fantasy ought to be.
Park's Miranda is as brave and questing as a heroine of fantasy
should be, and his Baroness Ceaucescu is a fascinating portrait of
unstoppable evil that is never more or less than appallingly --
even appealingly -- human. Every page of this book holds something
you couldn't have imagined and yet that strikes you as supremely
right and satisfying. A huge achievement."-John Crowley
"Complex, elusive, haunting, written in a transparent prose that
slips you from one world to another with...ease"-Ursula Le Guin
"I love it! I think it's wonderful."--Elizabeth Hand
"A superb new fantasy, the first in what I hope will be many books
in a series."-Ed Greenwood
