Critics Review
Stunning … the model of 21st century sword and sorcery * Richard Swan, Sunday Times bestselling author *You can tell Greathouse is a master by looking at the sheer scope of this book. Few authors could weave a haunted nation, a wandering mage, a hot dude with four arms, a fiend-invested girl, and a tortured priest into a coherent story, let alone one so compelling. You’ll be itching for the next puzzle-piece in the epic worldbuilding mystery, and applauding as it all comes together * Ryan Rose, author of Seven Recipes for Revolution *A beautiful, intricate, angry book about the price tag of history, and whether we should keep paying it * Jared Pechaček, author of The West Passage *Highly recommended for fans of epic fantasy * Auston Habershaw, author of If Wishes Were Retail *A great, deep and magical world to get lost in - classic and contemporary fantasy hand in hand * A.S. Tamaki, author of The Book of Fallen Leaves *J.T. Greathouse flexes the muscles of his imagination with The Tower of the Tyrant … this is a work of expansive scope and scale, with thrilling battles, compelling characters and high stakes * SFX *Martin by way of Sapkoswki, Greathouse’s new epic weaves a wonderfully engrossing story guaranteed to capture the attention of fantasy fans everywhere. Looking for a new chonky epic fantasy to lose yourself in? Look no further * FanFiAddict *An absolutely riveting read from a storyteller who knows his craft * The Fantasy Hive *
