Renegade's Magic: The Soldier Son Trilogy

“[A] master fantasist.” — Kansas City Star
“Robin Hobb is one of our very best fantasy writers. Her novels are always fresh, entertaining, and completely engrossing.” — Kevin J. Anderson, New York Times bestselling coauthor of Sandworms of Dune
“Hobb is probably one of the best writers of the fantasy genre currently operating. With Robin Hobb you do not get the standard good versus evil story in which every character is one or the other. Instead her characters are believable, human and flawed.” — Birmingham Post
