* "The installments are easy to read one at a time, but the tangles
of alliances, secrets, and shocking double-crosses will have
readers up all night mumbling, "Just one more."-- "Publishers
Weekly, STARRED REVIEW"
"Take a double shot of Le Carré, a dash of Deighton, a twist of
Quiller, a splash of Al Stewart's "The Year of the Cat," throw in a
jigger full of elemental magic, mix well ... and voilà! The Witch
Who Came In From The Cold."--Victor Milán, author of The Dinosaur
Lords
Location: Prague. Time: 1970. Two things this city was lousy with:
spies and witches. "As soon as I saw that, I was instantly hooked,
and the pilot jacked the intrigue to the max. Two female Soviet spy
witches, an American spy with something weird drilling magical
holes in his head, and a world of secrets within secrets in a
locale where old-world myth and the Cold War face off, pedal to the
metal . . . it's awesome. Or as we said in 1970, Far out.
"--Sherwood Smith, author of Crown Duel
"The occult love child of John le Carre and The
Sandbaggers."--Marie Brenna, author of A Natural History of
Dragons
"The Witch Who Came in from the Cold is a chilly evocation of a
different kind of Cold War."--Charles Stross, author of the Laundry
Files series
