Praise for Between the Blade and the Heart
“[An] entertaining fantasy. . . . There’s quite a bit for readers to enjoy in this series opener, including an openly bisexual protagonist, the diversity of characters and mythological source material Hocking draws on, and the intriguing blend of fantasy and science fiction elements. It’s fast-paced and stocked with action.” —Publishers Weekly
