Critics Review

In a word: great ! … A dazzling debut!

I loved it! It surprised me many times … Gray is relatable, sympathetic, and wholly likeable, and the rest of the cast was endearing. And the magic! It was a perfect mix of traditional and new. A fascinating take, really. - Charlie N. Holmberg, author of The Paper Magician

Lord of Secrets is a fast-paced necromantic adventure. The characters are sharp, the dialogue is funny - and wow, Teintze can really write a monster! From the sadistic priest to the power-crazed wizard, from the delicate horrifying brilliance of her undead creations to the lurking, dreadful, beautiful monster at the heart of an ancient buried temple, I was alarmed and delighted at every turn - Emily Tesh, author of Silver in the Wood

Lord of Secrets is a delightful necromantic romp through a dark and complex world with magic as boundless as it is painful, terrifying undead monstrosities, and secrets layered upon secrets which are so craftfully peeled away just in time for a bone-rattling, conclusion that all I want is the next book, NOW - K. A. Doore, author of The Perfect Assassin

Deftly plotted and great fun - The Guardian

In a word: great! … A dazzling debut! - Life Has a Funny Way

After reading this, I felt refreshed and almost like a “faith restored” feeling for fantasy - Moon Kestrel

Brilliantly witty and at times had me laughing out loud. I will definitely be reading the next in the series … This is an amazing debut and because of that I am giving it 5⁄5 stars. Perfect for fans of Sebatien De Castell’s Greatcoats series - Crooks Books

5 out of 5 - Dyslexic Reader
