“Exciting.”
—The Best Reviews
 
 
Dragon Strike
BOOK FOUR OF THE AGE OF FIRE
 
“Entertaining. . . . Knight turns the familiar features of an epic fantasy upside down in this unique world of medieval politics and ancient magic seen through the eyes of dragons.”

Publishers Weekly
 
 
“Book four of the Age of Fire brings this glorious fantasy to a rousing finish with the three sibling stars of the previous novels finally coming together. . . . E. E. Knight makes his world of dragons soar as the audience roots for them to succeed.”

Midwest Book Review
 
 
“An original tale told from the viewpoint of the dragons. . . . The tale picks up speed on the wings of dragons as they venture aloft, and it carries you with each courageous wingbeat toward the forging of a grand alliance and an exciting new world.”

Dragon Outcast
BOOK THREE OF THE AGE OF FIRE
 
“Presents [dragons] in a way that makes them seem almost human . . . interesting.”
—Fresh Fiction
 
 
“Spans decades of time, miles of territory, and a host of philosophical precepts. . . . I must say that I’m really looking forward to the fourth book in the series.”
—SFRevu
 
 
Dragon Avenger
BOOK TWO OF THE AGE OF FIRE
 
“Knight breathes new life into old conventions. His characters are complex and compellingly drawn, and scene after scene is haunting and memorable. . . . Knight, a master plotter and world builder, alternately surprises and delights, keeping us on the edge of our seats. Had I a working crystal ball, I’d guess that Knight has written a classic here, a kind of
Watership Down
with dragons—a book that will be cherished for generations to come. It is, simply, a grand tale, full of the mystery and wonder fantasy readers long to discover and too often find absent in modern fiction.”

Black Gate
 
 
“[A] gritty coming-of-age story.... Knight makes the story complex enough to entertain readers of all ages.”

Publishers Weekly
 
 
“Knight offers a thoroughly crafted fantasy world.... For a lushly unique fantasy read, look into
Dragon Avenger
, as well as its predecessor,
Dragon Champion
. You’ll never look at dragons the same way again.”
—Wantz Upon a Time Book Reviews
 
 
Dragon Champion
BOOK ONE OF THE AGE OF FIRE
 
“Knight, best known for his Vampire Earth mass market series, makes an auspicious trade paper debut with this smoothly written fantasy told from the point of view of its dragon hero . . . a bloody, unsentimental fairy tale.”

Publishers Weekly
 
 
“This is a heartwarming story full of adventure, where good deeds and friendship always succeed. The characters are wonderfully endearing and the adventures that AuRon experiences as he grows into an adult dragon are exciting and entertaining.”
—The Eternal Night
 
 
“A refreshingly new protagonist who views the world from a draconic, rather than a human, perspective. A fine addition to most fantasy collections.”

Library Journal
(starred review)
 
 
“Knight did a great job of hooking me into the story.... This concern and attention to the details illustrates how strong the overall feel of the book is—Knight clearly is building something more in this world and the amount of backstory to the characters and creatures is very impressive.... Very entertaining, the characters were genuine and the world full of depth.”
—SFFWorld
 
 
“One of the most consistently interesting writers in the military science fiction field. I wouldn’t miss a book of his Vampire Earth series. They’re great.”
—Charlaine Harris
 
 
The Vampire Earth Novels
 
Valentine’s Resolve
 
“Knight flavors action with humor in [
Valentine’s Resolve
]. . . . Classic apocalyptic SF on a grand scale is always scary, but Knight makes it terrifically entertaining as well.”

Publishers Weekly
 
 
“Knight has managed to write a book six that keeps fans thirsting for more in the series.... [He] maintains a tight point of view, controls scene transitions beautifully, and never wavers in tone. His main character, David Valentine, keeps readers coming back for more.”
—Science Fiction Weekly
 
 
“E. E. Knight brings excitement and interest to his Vampire Earth series.... [David] is an extraordinary character who turns the Vampire Earth war into a compelling tale.”
—Alternative Worlds
 
 
“Knight manages something that is not always a given in an extended series: He’s kept it fresh and engaging.... He’s a good, strong writer with a definite gift for building character and milieu without beating you over the head with it, and he never lets it get in the way of the story. Yes, this one is certainly worth the time—and it looks like all the preceding books are, as well.”
—The Green Man Review
 
 
Valentine’s Exile
“Compelling pulp adventure.... The sympathetic hero, fast-paced action, and an intricately detailed milieu set in various well-imagined regions of twenty-first-century North America make for an entertaining read.”

Publishers Weekly

Valentine’s Exile
isn’t an average vampire novel.... The vampires and their soul-sucking Lovecraftian masters are like Dr. Moreau on steroids. This is nicely drawn horror: not gross, not psychologically terrifying, but very creepy.... E. E. Knight is a master of his craft.... [His] work is creative and the voice is his own.”
—Science Fiction Weekly
 
 
“Knight gives us a thrill ride through a world ruled by the vampiric Kurians and filled with engaging characters and grand schemes, and promises more to come.”
