Praise for The Dark Apostle series:
"Elisha Barber is an edgy, vivid story with engaging characters and
a well-drawn setting that's almost, but not quite, our own history.
I was drawn right in, quick as a slash of a barber's razor." —Kevin
J. Anderson, New York Times bestselling author of Clockwork
Angels
"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, E. C. 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
Stormlord’s Exile
"Elisha Barber is a stunning debut from a gifted storyteller. It
didn't just keep me up all night, it transported me to a vivid,
gritty 14th-century England, and left me feeling like I'd been
touched by the wing of that dark angel. A magical first novel."
—Steven H. Savile, author of Primeval: Shadow of the Jaguar
"Ambrose’s fantasy debut depicts a 14th-century England in which
magic and fledgling science exist side by side. Elisha’s struggle
to bring relief to those in need is complicated by his own need for
redemption and his innate fear of what he cannot understand. This
beautifully told, painfully elegant story should appeal to fans of
L.E. Modesitt’s realistic fantasies as well as of the period
fantasy of Guy Gavriel Kay." —Library Journal (starred review)
