Reception

Dan Silver of Realms of Fantasy opined that while Bush’s “skill at developing her story was not consistently matched by the quality of her writing”, she “created a wonderful and richly textured world” and “manages to raise her tale above the cliches of many first novels.”^[2] Susan Cromby of Kliatt called it an “interesting story with intriguing concepts.”^[3] Publishers Weekly wrote that while Bush “at times displays a vivid imagination, it is underutilized: too many pages pass without anything wondrous, and the most promising twists come only with the final chapters.”^[4]
