There's a wonderful bit of world-building here, and lots of sword fighting. There's love, poison, and fully drawn characters, both good and bad and in-between. Malan's written a classic fantasy novel that manages to be fresh and compelling. I highly recommend The Sleeping God ." --Charlaine Harris "Well-rounded characters both male and female! Derring-do! Heroic (maybe-not-quite) last stands! Come one, come all.... " --Tor.com
