"The Warrior is an incredible sequel and the work of a master story-teller at the peak of his powers. It's a thrilling adventure into dark and twisted lands, full of nail-biting tension and heart-stopping surprises."
- Mike Shackle, author of We are the Dead
"A dark, inter-dimensional Sword & Sorcery adventure that grabs you by the throat and doesn't let up."
- Peter McLean, author of Priest of Bones
PRAISE FOR STEPHEN ARYAN
"Packing in an epic's worth of action and feeling, this thought-provoking fantasy argues that even the most vicious monster battles are less harrowing than the struggles within men's souls. This is a knockout."
- Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
"Magnificent...Exactly the sort of breathless adventure we need after a lockdown year"
- SFX Magazine
"Aryan's newest series is sure to please fantasy readers; he wraps everything up masterfully while leaving just enough unresolved questions for the sequel"
- Booklist
"A tremendous sword & sorcery romp with a lot of heart and plenty to say. I really enjoyed this book."
- Peter McLean, author of Priest of Bones
"Stephen Aryan puts the epic into Epic Fantasy."
- Den Patrick, author of The Boy with the Porcelain Blade
"Aryan's battle scenes are visceral masterpieces that transport the reader deep into the melee."
- Taran Matharu, author of the Summoner series
"Sparkling action sequences punctuate keen dialogue and a journey full of colour and interest... Compelling, consuming and a novel in which no character can be considered supporting cast... Bring on the sequel."
- James Barclay, author of The Chronicles of the Raven
"Fast-paced and action-packed, steeped in plots and schemes - a great fantasy tale."
- Ed Cox, author of The Relic Guild Trilogy
