"About this title" may belong to another edition of this title. five frighteningly accurate historical sword fights out of five." - Fanboy Comics Think Lord of the Rings without all that pesky fantasy. Dietz, Steven Erikson, Ray Bradbury.I can honestly do this all day but you get the point: the guy wrote a story that blew my mind." - Splattergeist PRAISE FOR THE MONGOLIAD "This story is pure adventure, with much swordplay and swashbuckling." - Kirkus Reviews "A terrifically engaging book that pulled me along at least as quickly as The Hunger Games. It is, without a doubt in my mind, a dazzling claim to place Brassey right there among the greats: Isaac Asimov, Alastair Reynolds, Brandon Sanderson, William C. It's a fast and fun read and I just had so much fun reading it." - Brenhine's Books "A delightful experience." - Bloglovin' "Skyfarer is a novel packed with equal parts entertainment, emotion, energy, homage, and originality." - SFF World "His prose, in the field Skyfarer was written in, is purely original and uncontested - at least in all my years of reading books. If you enjoy Fantasy or Sci-Fi, I would definitely suggest giving this a chance. This is a book that I would very highly recommend and is one that I will happily re-read multiple times. I already know several people who I'm going to make read this when it comes out, and I can't wait on the next book. There’s a lot of construction going on around here right now, so mind the cracks and beware of falling idea-crates. You want to read it - not just to find out what's going to happen next, but because it's written in such a way that you just want to be reading the book, like a having a glass of iced tea on a summer's day." - The Irresponsible Reader "It's hard to write a good review of this book because the entire time I was reading it, I was just having so much fun and couldn't put it down. I’m Joseph Brassey, author of Skyfarer and The Drifting Lands series, as well as the Mongoliad books. This sword and sorcery space adventure stands apart from everything else currently out there in the SFF market." - The 1000 Year Plan "This is a fun read - the pacing, the tone, everything makes this feel like the adventure films and books that I grew up on. Do judge the book by its cover!" - Beth Cato, author of Breath of Earth "Brassey's writing is an adrenaline dump in page form." - Stant Litore, author of The Zombie Bible series "A richly imagined story full of soaring adventure, dark intrigue, and characters you'll fall in love with." - Megan E O'Keefe, author of Inherit the Flame "Brassey has created an action-packed roller coaster ride with rich characters, incredible combat scenes, and a fresh heroine audiences will love." - John G Hartness, author of the Black Knight Chronicles series "Skyfarer ended up being just about everything I was hoping it would be." - Writings of a Reader "A delightful experience." - Bloggers Bookshelf "No one who reads Skyfarer will ever accuse Joseph Brassey of being hip this novel is so unabashedly dorky, it reads like something dreamed by a Mountain Dew guzzling twelve-year-old hooked on Star Wars and Final Fantasy. More, please." - Mark Teppo, author of Earth Thirst and Silence of Angels "This book has one of the best covers I've seen all year, and it's incredibly accurate in its depiction of the characters and mood of the story. ![]() Brassey raises the bar for everyone else. ![]() ![]() Nicsopana (2 works), QuixoticBooks (2), Octacron (2), pdx_runner (2), fairy.bookmother (2), Stantlitore (2), CrazedCollector (2), RLNunezKPL (2), DrBibliophile (2), CoreyScott (2), Murphy-Jacobs (2), Katrina210 (2), quiet."One of those remarkable books that consists entirely of 'the good parts.' Nonstop fun with unexpected moments of real pathos." - Neal Stephenson "To say that Skyfarer was Firefly meets the Battle at Helm's Deep would be to dismiss the amazing world-building that Brassey wraps us up in, or to gloss over the intricate and intense battles we are thrust into, both on high and up close. ![]() 2017 (1) 2018 (2) 2019 audiobook (1) 2022 (3) (1) action (1) Angry Robot (4) arc (1) blurbed (1) book (1) drifting lands series (1) ebook (4) ebook tbr overflow (1) family (1) fantasy (19) fiction (4) intermediate (1) Kindle (1) m (1) magic (1) netgalley (1) read in 2017 (2) read in 2019 (1) read-in-english (1) review-pending (1) romance (1) science fiction (6) self-contained (1) series starter (1) series to start (1) sf (1) sff (2) space (1) space opera (1) speculative fiction (1) sub (1) TBR: wishlist (1) to-read (10) Tor.com (1) unfinished-series (1) unread (2) Top Members
