Praise for The Edge of Worlds and The Books of the Raksura
"Breathtakingly surprising and fun. Wells is a master
worldbuilder.”—The New York Times
“Wildly original world-building, diverse and engaging characters,
and a thrilling adventure plot. It’s that rarest of fantasies:
fresh and surprising, with a story that doesn’t go where ten
thousand others have gone before.“—N. K. Jemisin, author of The
Hundred Thousand Kingdoms
“Truly inventive and stunningly imaginative world building
perfectly melded with vivid, engaging characters make the Books of
the Raksura one of my all-time favorite science-fiction
series.”—Kate Elliott, author of the Crown of Stars series
"Far from mindless sock-em action, The Edge of Worlds provide
conflicts with stakes, with choices . . . I am going to be
impatiently awaiting the resolution of the cliffhanger in the next
volume."—The Skiffy and Fanty Show
“This novel is an irresistible tour-de-force of excellent
storytelling and fine characterization . . . . I consider The Edge
of Worlds to be one of the most addictive and entertaining fantasy
novels of the year.”—Rising Shadow
"That rarity—a completely unique and stunning fantasy world.”—Hugo
Award-winning author Elizabeth Bear
“Martha Wells writes fantasy the way it was meant to be—poignant,
evocative, and astonishing. Prepare to be captivated 'til the sun
comes up.”—Kameron Hurley, author of The Mirror Empire and God's
War
“With these books Wells is writing at the top of her game, and
given their breadth, originality, complexity, this series is
showing indications it could become one of the landmark series of
the genre.”—Adventures Fantastic
“An imaginative world of engaging characters . . . the dramatic
battles, tough decisions, and character dynamics shine
through.”—Publishers Weekly
“Martha Wells' Raksura books are dense, and complex, with truly
amazing world building, and non-human characters who are quite
genuinely alien, yet still comprehensible and sympathetic.”—Kelly
McCullough, author of the WebMage series and the Fallen Blade
novels
