“Those Who Are Gone is a first-rate novel and one of the crowning achievements of Laurie R. King’s career. In two short books, she has helped readers really get to know and appreciate such complex characters as Raquel and Dee. Storytelling like this should provide a long life for this series.”—Bookreporter
