Kirkus Reviews likes Twist of the Blade even more than Song of the Sword
The first review of Twist of the Blade has shown up, and it’s a good one. Kirkus Reviews says:
The sequel to Song of the Sword (2014) improves on its foundation….Willett realistically explores the difficulties Ariane and Wally face and paints Rex Major in such a light that readers may be unsure as to whether he is a master manipulator or misunderstood hero…Engrossing and more nuanced than its predecessor. (Fantasy. 12-16)
