Reviews

Sister Wake is quite simply dazzling. The vastness of Rudden's rich world is breathtaking while his prose is vivid and exquisite. The words are alive, thrumming on the page and propelling us through this utterly compulsive story * Sophie White, award-winning author of Where I End * Sister Wake is the rare epic fantasy that hits on all levels - lushly descriptive, meticulously plotted, dizzyingly vast, and with characters that breathe and bleed with the sort of vigour that makes you look up from the page and wonder that they're not sitting right next to you * Andrea Stewart, author of The Bone Shard Daughter * I absolutely loved its epic mix of weird horror and revolutionary intrigue. Heartily recommended * Gareth Hanrahan, author of The Sword Defiant *


Sister Wake is the rare epic fantasy that hits on all levels - lushly descriptive, meticulously plotted, dizzyingly vast, and with characters that breathe and bleed with the sort of vigour that makes you look up from the page and wonder that they're not sitting right next to you * Andrea Stewart, author of The Bone Shard Daughter * Sister Wake is quite simply dazzling. The vastness of Rudden's rich world is breathtaking while his prose is vivid and exquisite. The words are alive, thrumming on the page and propelling us through this utterly compulsive story * Sophie White, award-winning author of Where I End * I absolutely loved its epic mix of weird horror and revolutionary intrigue. Heartily recommended * Gareth Hanrahan, author of The Sword Defiant * Rudden has masterfully crafted a layered, epic world made all the more brutal by the return of gods terrifying and unknown * David Daglish, author of The Radiant King * Two hundred-foot kaiju gods, necromancy, and anti-colonial rebellion - what more could you ask for? Dave Rudden's Sister Wake gripped me in its iron chains and carried me forward on prose as beautiful as it was riveting. I practically squealed each time he treated me to a description of his wonderfully grotesque gods * Ryan Rose, author of Seven Recipes for Revolution * A gorgeous work of power and magic, saints and monsters and gods. Don't wait another second: Sister Wake is like nothing you've ever read * Lev Grossman, author of The Magicians *
