Praise for the Wars of Vis series:
"The drive and inventiveness which made Lee's Birthgrave
remarkable are in evidence in [The Storm Lord].... The
unnamed world in which the story is set is as richly varied as
Middle Earth." -Publishers Weekly

splendor and complications.... Lee is always a persuasive
writer, and her imagination is compelling. Anackire is a cut
above her usual high standard." -Locus

frightening, characterizations and careful world building."
-Booklist
"[The White Serpent] vividly displays Lee's gift for
exotic, sensual fantasy." -Library Journal

envelops the reader in a magical ambience." -Rave
