"This is a fitting follow-up to the first Crimson Empire book; full
of bloody battles and strong females... The writing and setting are
rich... Purna is a strong character who adds an interesting dynamic
to the twisted and surprising story."--RT Book Reviews on A Blade

love A Crown for Cold Silver; I've just finished it, and I'm
already eager for more."--Django Wexler on A Crown for Cold
Silver
