Product Information

 

Praise for The Fates Divide: "The Fates Divide features themes like hope and resilience and is told from four perspectives, as the lives of its two heroes are ruled by their fates spoken by the oracles at their births. Of course, a little romance gets in the way as well." (Entertainment Weekly) Praise for Carve the Mark: "Roth's worldbuilding is commendable; each nation is distinct, interacting with the current in ways that give insight into her characters' motivations. Roth thoughtfully addresses substantial issues, such as the power of self-determination in the face of fate." (Publishers Weekly) "This duology offers shades of George Lucas sprawl and influence, Game of Thrones clan intrigue, and a little Romeo & Juliet-style romance." (USA Today) Roth excels at world-building in her novels, and this story collection is no exception. Each story shows us a new world, a future world, a unique world unknown to the reader and populated with exquisitely drawn characters. The attractive book design includes richly drawn black and white art throughout. Connie Goldsmith – New York Journal of Books (JC BookGrocer)
