Critics Review

“Havemercy is an absolute charmer of a book: at once exciting, romantic, and funny.“—Peter S. Beagle, author of The Last Unicorn“These ladies write like a house on fire, delivering fantasy’s most pleasant surprise since Temeraire himself took wing in 2006…An impressive debut.“—SFReviews.net“Delicious! The characters are unique, entrancing and believable: dinner-party guests you never want to see go home. I will gladly walk again in this city, now that I know my way around.” —Ellen Kushner, author of The Privilege of the Sword“A dazzling cast memorable characters! Havemercy is a wonderful debut from two talented new authors.”—Lynn Flewelling, author of Shadows Return“[The authors] vividly convey the testosterone-saturated world of fantasy fighter pilots in this fast-paced debut.”—Publishers Weekly
