Critics Review

A master of the genre - The Times

This is fast-paced and gripping “read-through-the-night” fiction, with marvellous characters and occasional moments of dark humour. Some authors are better historians than they are storytellers. Anthony Riches is brilliant at both. - Conn Iggulden

A damn fine read … fast-paced, action-packed. - Ben Kane

Stands head and shoulders above a crowded field … . real, live characters act out their battles on the northern borders with an accuracy of detail and depth of raw emotion that is a rare combination. - Manda Scott

Riches highlights the chaos and fragility of an empire without an emperor … dense, complicated and rewarding. - The Times on BETRAYAL
