Critics Review
Praise for The Deed of Paksenarrion series:
“One of the absolute classics of military fantasy. A masterful blend of the reality of military life with the magic and worldbuilding of the best fantasy. Paksennarion is one of the greatest military fantasy characters of all time. Captures the essence of what it’s like to be a soldier and makes you feel like you’re part of the unit.” —Michael Mammay, Col. (retired), author of Planetside
Praise for Elizabeth Moon:

“Moon has created a richly imagined universe of different cultures, replete with intriguing characters and the sense of unlimited possibility that characterizes the most appealing science fiction.” —School Library Journal
“Rip-roaring action and intriguing science and tactics … [a] grand space opera tour de force.” —Publishers Weekly
