Description: Praise for Mazes of Power " Delicious political intrigue and really cool world building." --Ann Leckie, Hugo and Nebula award-winning author of Ancillary Justice "A vivid, thrilling journey through a wonderfully realized and wonderfully complex world; and a fascinating look at power and its exercise across different strata of an intricate society." --Aliette de Bodard, Nebula award-winning author of The Tea Master and the Detective "A twisty ride through family drama and tangled politics, Mazes of Power carries readers into a world of love and treachery , and doesn't let them go." --Laura Anne Gilman, author of The Cold Eye "A deliciously complex, glittering work of family intrigue and life-or-death politics in a world that's utterly alien, with characters who are all-too human. I loved it." --Kelly Robson, Hugo award-winning author of Gods, Monsters, and the Lucky Peach " Mazes of Power is a gasp-inducing political Hunger Games packed with intrigue, assassins, and stunning social dynamics. I didn't want it to end!" --Beth Cato, author of Breath of Earth " Mazes of Power is a taut, tense, wonderfully claustrophobic entry into a world and society brimming with surprises and secrets. Loved it and cannot wait for more!" --Julie E. Czerneda, author of The Web Shifter's Library series "[ Mazes of Power ] is a deeply political novel, that treats with the complexities of caste as much as with the arrogance of ambition; and it steps as lightly through its major themes of political and mental disorder as it does through its plotlines of romance and revolution. This book is a delight to read , and a constant surprise, offering consequences as unexpected to the reader as they are to the characters." --Chaz Brenchley, Lambda award-winning author of Bitter Waters " Mazes of Power showcases Wade's ability to take the reader deep inside a fully alien culture on the grandest scale yet --even if the 'aliens' are fully human." --Stanley Schmidt, author of Night Ride and Sunrise " Mazes of Power is one of those novels that redefines the genre . The storyline draws you in immediately, with characters that range from sympathetic to charming to downright terrifying in their insanity, but despite the initial, fairly conventional coming-of-age plot, this book dives fearlessly into darker questions.... With compassion and keen insight, not to mention the skill of a gifted storyteller, Wade has created Varin, a world without a sun, a society crumbling under the weight of its own survival, and characters desperate for power and for love...a world that will leave readers clamoring for more." --Deborah J. Ross, author of The Seven-Petaled Shield
