Praise for The Dark Apostle series:
"Ambrose's fantasy debut depicts a 14th-century England in which
magic and fledgling science exist side by side.... This beautifully
told, painfully elegant story should appeal to fans of LE
Modesitt's realistic fantasies as well as of the period fantasy of
Guy Gavriel Kay." —Library Journal (starred review)
"A vivid, violent, and marvelously detailed historical
fantasy set in the perilous world that is medieval England in
the middle of a war. Elisha Barber wades through blood and battle
in his pursuit of arcane knowledge—forbidden love—and dangerous
magic." —Sharon Shinn, author of Troubled Waters
"In a grim world of medieval warfare, witch-hunts, and primitive
surgery, EC Ambrose has crafted a shining tale of one man's
humanity and courage. A gritty read for those who like realism
as well as hope in their fantasy." —Glenda Larke, author
of The Last Stormlord
"Elisha Barber is, at its heart, a story of resilience, of why
we strive to be better, even when that journey seems pointless. As
the start of a new series, the book sets a half-dozen plates
spinning, and not a one wobbles for a second." —San Francisco
Book Review
"EC Ambrose has created an exciting, adventure-filled world that
draws you in; you are able to picture not only the characters but
the world they live in. Elisha Magus is fantasy at its
best, and I can't wait for the next book." —Fresh Fiction
"I am really enjoying this series. After reading the first book, I
was eager to read [Elisha Magus]. It did not disappoint."
—Night Owl Reviews
"The historical milieu is detailed and brings the period into sharp
focus.... The magical battles rivet readers' attention as Elisha
fights for his life and sanity. Book three looms in the wings
as Elisha learns to wield his powers and protect his chosen king."
