'A beautiful writer ... spot-on, with moments of wry humour amid her smooth, elegant prose; she gives the impression of days-of-yore and a faraway world, and tackles her creation's weird eroticisms, without ever being tempted into going over the top.' The Guardian
'Quite astonishing: unrelentingly skilful, unputdownable ... Accept no substitutes.' John Clute
'One of the most intelligent and powerful writers in fantasy.' Publishers Weekly
