Industry Reviews

Praise for SPELLWRIGHT: 'Blake Charlton has not only invented a fascinating world and peopled it with realistic people and wonderful, grisly monsters, but he has also created one of the few truly original magical systems we've seen in fantasy fiction! I'm fascinated to see what happens next and will be following every word with the absorption of an apprentice spellwright. You will be, too.' Tad Williams 'Nicodemus Weal is a protagonist that all of us can identify with. SPELLWRIGHT features a unique system of magic and characters that are genuine inhabitants of that world. SPELLWRIGHT is a letter-perfect story: an absorbing read and recommended.' Robin Hobb 'An enthralling tale' Terry Brooks 'A clever conceit well executed adds a flair of originality to this wizard-in-training fantasy. A spellcaster who can't spell -- in both senses of the word! Fast-paced and well-written, SPELLWRIGHT is an enjoyable read.' Kevin J. Anderson 'SPELLWRIGHT is exactly the kind of book that got me into fantasy in the first place. Blake Charlton has built a world that is as new as it is classic, and a story that kept me reading late into the night. Blake Charlton is a talent to watch.' Daniel Abraham 'Blake Charlton's novel is, quite literally, a magical and spellbinding adventure about overcoming the sort of odds that many in our own world struggle with.' Tobias Buckell 'An absorbing tale of acceptance for lovers of language and magic everywhere.' Sean Williams
