'Berg has an artist's touch with fantasy worlds and scenes.' RT Book Reviews'With this masterful opening . . . the story grabs you by the hand, plunging you headfirst into a world of magic and war, where nothing is quite what it seems.' San Francisco Book Review 'I particularly enjoyed the structure and logic of the story, but it is the character Greenshanks that kept me reading. I wanted to go on the journey with him to recapture his lost memories and to see why he was so important to his world. The emotional nexus around him was compelling and the world he inhabited was one I could live in.' King's River Life Magazine
