Critics Review
SON OF THE MORNING is a smart, gripping historical fantasy
SFX FIVE STAR RECOMMENDATION - SON OF THE MORNING is a smart, gripping historical fantasy * SFX *A triumphant combination of great characters and an epic - yet not too sprawling - plot….a vivid and realistic story that, once you’re in, you’ll find it hard to leave * Fantasy Faction *What the author has accomplished here is nothing short of remarkable, providing a rich window into an alternative history that hits all the right notes and doesn’t alienate those without a deep knowledge of historical happenings * SF BOOK *This is fast-paced and absorbing but most of all it is as visual as a richly coloured medieval tapestry packed with detail * We Love This Book *It is a novel that demands to be read * Fantasy Book Review *Expertly written, highly detailed and vividly imagined, this is an outstanding work of historical fiction/alternate history which pulled me in with its prose and story from page 1 * Grim Dark Fantasy Reader *
