Reviews
"Part political intrigue, part underdog tale, part acerbic commentary on humanity, Parker’s dryly funny low fantasy is off to a strong start."—Booklist on Saevus Corax Deals with the Dead "Readers who like Peter David, A. Lee Martinez, or the Guardians of the Galaxy movies will find this title right up their alley with similar tones, fantastical plots, and over-the-top characters."—Library Journal on Saevus Corax Deals with the Dead
“Full of invention and ingenuity . . . Great fun."
—SFX on Sixteen Ways to Defend A Walled City“Parker's acerbic wit and knowledge of human nature are a delight to read as he explores the way conflict is guided, in equal measure, by the brilliance and unerring foolishness of humanity . . . . Thoroughly engaging."
—RT Books Reviews on The Two of Swords"This is another splendid offering from K.J. Parker, the (pseudonymous) British fantasist who seems incapable of writing in anything but top form."
—Locus on Sharps"Astonishingly good."
—RT Book Reviews on Sharps"Parker's skillful control of pacing, expert rendering of characters, and subtle sense of humor add depth and believability."
—Library Journal on The Engineer Trilogy "Brilliant."—Locus on The Engineer Trilogy Expand reviews
