Praise for The House War Series:
“The magic feels truly magical.” —Publishers Weekly
“Richly and superbly detailed. Her characters live and sing.”
—Examiner
“This story will go down as one of the best novels in its genre,
propelling West into the ranks of Robin Hobb and George R.R.
Martin.” —The Maine Edge
“Some say Michelle West has been propelled into the ranks of George
R. R. Martin and Robin Hobb—I say that she's been there all along

Reviews
“If you're new to this kind of writing and have read George R.R.
Martin's series and enjoyed it, I highly recommend these
books. If you've read neither—what are waiting for?!”
—Chaotic Compendiums
“A worthy addition to the fantasy canon, both for its unusual
nature, and its deep meanderings into the human psyche on the
subjects of pain, loss, and hope in adversity.” —Grasping for the
Wind
“In a richly woven world, and with a cast of characters that ranges
from traumatized street kids to the wealthy heads of the most
prominent houses in Averalaan, West pulls no punches as
she hooks readers in with her bold and descriptive narrative.”
—Quill & Quire
“The power and majesty of the series is in the characters, although
the world itself is extraordinary.... The House War series
is timeless and clearly takes its place at the top of its
genre. It is a full-bodied piece of work that is satisfying,
intriguing and thought-provoking.” —Bitten by Books
