Recenzii
"It's
a

something
new.
An
interesting
book

and
fascinating
to
discuss
afterwards!"—Mark
Lawrence
"Anna Smith Spark is a dynamic new voice in the field of grimly baroque fantasy, a knowing and witty provisioner of the Grand Guignol, a cheerful undertaker strolling across the graveyard and beckoning you to admire her newest additions."—Scott Lynch
"Gritty and glorious! A great read."—Miles Cameron, author of The Traitor Son Cycle
"Fierce, gripping fantasy, exquisitely written; bitter, funny, and heart-rending by turns."—Adrian Tchaikovsky, Arthur C. Clarke Award winner for Children of Time
"Grim, gritty, and fast paced; with great battles scenes! Anna Smith-Spark is one to watch."—Andy Remic, author of the Blood Dragon Empire series
"Anna Smith Spark's debutThe Court of Broken Knivesis a fevered dream of a fantasy, set in a world where the saviors also seem to be the destroyers . . . . This book may not make you worship death like its characters do, but it weaves a spell that will consume you all the same."—B&N Sci-Fi & Fantasy Blog
"Anna Smith-Spark writes in a unique voice with such pace and veracity your imagination has to struggle to keep up with your eyes."—Adrian Collins, Grimdark Magazine
"Captivating."—Marc Turner, author of the Chronicles of the Exile series
"Holy crap, this is good!"—Grim Tidings
"All hail the queen of grimdark fantasy!"
—Michael R. Fletcher, author of Beyond Redemption
"Spark's gripping debut is definitely one to read and prize."—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"This outstanding, unputdownable debut holds and horrifies like a blood-spattered tapestry. There's rough humour, high drama and a love of story-telling that shines through every page. Plus it's got dragons with bad breath. Brilliant."—The Daily Mail (UK)
"Should appeal to grim dark fans looking for the extreme edge."—Kirkus

"Spark's gripping debut is definitely one to read and prize."—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Spark's
first
novel
lives
up
to
its
billing
as
a
'grimdark'
tale.
The
setting
may
be
bleak
and
dreary,
but
the
worldbuilding
is
well
done
and
the
characters
fit
right
in.
Troubled,
solitary
and
downright
drug-addled
as
the
protagonist
is,
readers
will
come
around
to
his
side
as
the
reasons
why
he
seeks
for
the
throne
he
lost
are
revealed."
