Praise for Harry Connolly�s novels:
�Harry Connolly�s vision is amazing." -- Charlaine Harris
�[CHILD OF FIRE] is excellent reading and has a lot of things I love in a book: a truly dark and sinister world, delicious tension and suspense, violence so gritty you�ll get something in your eye just reading it, and a gorgeously flawed protagonist. Take this one to the checkout counter. Seriously.�� -- Jim Butcher
�An edge-of-the-seat read! Ray Lilly is the new high-water mark of paranormal noir.� -- Charles Stross, author of RULE 34
THE GREAT WAY: Complex world, tight action, awesome women as well as men; Connelly was good right out the gate, and just keeps getting better. � Sherwood Smith
"... one hard-hitting, take-no-prisoners, breathtaking holy moly of a
book." -- C.E. Murphy
"One of the few urban magic books � for lack of a better term � novels I enjoyed last year was Harry Connolly�s CHILD OF FIRE. And I loved it.� -- John Rogers, writer/producer LEVERAGE
