What They're Saying

Critics Review

Stunning – the writing is lush, the world-building is fascinating, and the romance is searing hot. I am completely obsessed with this story of unrepentantly dangerous people falling in love with one another – Cat Sebastian, author of The Queer Principles of Kit Webb
A delightful, twisty, endlessly charming romp. I would travel anywhere with these characters – Grace D. Li, author of Portrait of a Thief
Messy people and burn-it-down conflict … Marske uses the full span of the trilogy to build to a beautiful, devastating conclusion … Romance runs on undiluted wish fulfillment; sometimes this means give me everything I desire, but other times it means promise me that I can survive the worst New York Times
Showstopping … Marske again demonstrates her talent for balancing romance and fantasy action. This does the series proud – Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
Delightful and spicy … Marske is simply superb at her chosen genres – The New York Times on The Last Binding trilogy
A Restless Truth keeps all the heart and heat of A Marvellous Light, but quadruples the hijinks. It’s the lesbian locked-room murder mystery of my dreams. Beyond delightful – Alix E. Harrow, author of Starling House on A Restless Truth
Jaw-droppingly fantastic. Anyone who’s ever hoped that the Miss Phryne Fisher Mysteries had a bit more magic and a lot more sex is going to adore this book, which doesn’t skimp on either. Add to that fantastic, thoroughly captivating characters, a deeply engaging story and divinely lyrical prose. In a word: delightful – Jenn Lyons, author of The Ruin of Kings on A Restless Truth
A magical world of exquisite refinement, where peril skims beneath manners, interiors bespeak both faultless taste and deadly secrets, and the sexual tension crescendos until it literally makes sparks fly. A dazzling debut – Shelley Parker-Chan, author of She Who Became the Sun on A Marvellous Light
A breathtaking queer romantic fantasy … Sensual erotic scenes, an intriguing magic system, and a puzzling mystery combine to make this novel a wonder – Publishers Weekly, Starred Review on A Marvellous Light
