“As might be expected of Foster, the tale is well constructed and the protagonist most sympathetic…. Recalls Patricia Wrede’s The Enchanted Forest Chronicles.”
“Foster’s conclusion brings Etjole’s odyssey to a surprising conclusion and provides a fitting end to a distinctive picaresque saga.”
… AND THE JOURNEYS OF THE CATECHIST
“Inventive and packed with flavorsome incident.”
“This is Foster at his best, thoughtful and fun.”
“Top-drawer Foster, featuring a fast-paced mix of wry humor, high fantasy, and amazing new places and creatures.”
“Combines the flexibility of a picaresque adventure with the simplicity of a folktale.”
“Etjole’s quest is reminiscent of The Odyssey.”
