Grossman, Lev

Highly recommended for readers who can’t resist a story featuring brave knights, stalwart queens, and magic.

Fans of low fantasy will enjoy the playfulness with which Grossman blends the modern world with magical myths and childhood stories. New listeners should listen to this series in order. ["The final volume will please fans looking for action, emotion, and, ultimately, closure," read the review of the Viking hc, LJ 6/15/14.]

This is best for readers who like some grit and realism in their fantasy and who have read the first book. [See Prepub Alert, 3/28/11.]—Laurel Bliss, San Diego State Univ. Lib.
