GRADE:
A

“This is an epic novel — fat in heft, rich on detail. The characters of NIGHT BIRDS’ REIGN really grab the reader, and they do not — let me repeat
do not
— let go . . . Kudos to Ms. Taylor.”

—Fantasy Novel Review

“NIGHT BIRD’S REIGN is an intriguing story; one that will wow many fantasy readers . . . At over 500 pages, there is a lot to take in. Don’t expect this to be a quick read, but do expect it to be gripping.”

—Round Table Reviews

“NIGHT BIRD’S REIGN is a strong fantasy. The story line is action-packed and
fi
lled with adventure. Holly Taylor provides a stirring quest that fans will want to trek alongside of Gwydion to partake.”

—H. Klausner, Independent Reviewer
