Tanya Huff may have left Nova Scotia at three, and has lived most of her life since in Ontario, but she still considers herself a Maritimer. On the way to the idyllic rural existence she shares with her partner Fiona Patton, six cats, and a chihuahua, she acquired a degree in Radio and Television Arts from Ryerson Polytechnic—an education she was happy to finally use while writing her recent Smoke novels. Of her previous twenty-three books, the five—Blood Price, Blood Trail, Blood Lines, Blood Pact, Blood Debt—featuring Henry Fitzroy, bastard son of Henry VIII, romance writer, and vampire are among the most popular.
“Zingy characterizations and a quick pace are the book’s strong
points.... Fans of the previous book will hit the ground
running.” —Publishers Weekly
"Combining Celtic folklore, musical references, and a love of
nature and magic, this sequel to The Enchantment Emporium will
appeal to Huff’s many fans and to readers who like their urban
fantasy with more depth and character development.” —Library
Journal
“Timely environmental themes can easily draw in new
readers.” —RT Book Reviews
“It’s a great adventure, full of music and magic and just a little
goofy at times, thanks to the delightful oddities of the
Gales.” —Locus
“Quintessential Huff -- sharp, clean, funny. A heady mix of music,
place and people that rings true on every level. Once again, I find
myself hoping that this is a series that will go on.” —Green
Man Review
"Combined with Huff’s ability to blend ancient traditions
seamlessly into the modern world and making them seem perfectly
normal and characters who are appealing and fun to hang out with,
you’re in for an amazing read. A perfect example of how there’s
more to urban fantasy than teenage girls swooning over the undead
and how so many others are failing to exploit the genre’s full
potential.” —Seattle Post-Intelligencer
