"An exciting take on classical themes as a professional thief finds himself reluctantly cast into the role of a hero to save his homeland from destruction. The story is engrossing, the characters intriguing and dynamic; there are mysteries galore and the very real sense as we set out that far creepier things are waiting down the road. In short, a book I didn't want to put down and want to see what comes next." --Chris Claremont, bestselling writer of the X-Men and Wolverine "Toothy, gritty, and relentless. Alexey Pehov sneaks up on you and fascinates with the wry voice of a young Moorcock. Clear space on your shelf--you'll want the whole series." --E.E. Knight, bestselling author of the Vampire Earth series "Shadow Prowler is a fresh, exuberant take on territory that will be familiar to all fans of classic high fantasy. Alexey Pehov introduces a cast of charming, quirky, unsavory, even loathesome characters in a fast-paced, entertaining adventure." --Kevin J. Anderson, co-author of the bestselling Dune books "It's not too often debut novels come with a legacy, but in this case it's a pretty impressive one...If this were an English novel, we'd be reaching for the rest of the trilogy right now" --Rhian Drinkwater, SFX Magazine 'The first volume in the acclaimed Russian series, translated into English last year, sees master thief Shadow Harold forces on a suicidal quest to retrieve the Rainbow Horn of the Palaces of Bone. Book two, Shadow Chaser, is also out now. We said: 'if this were an English novel, we'd be reacing for the rest of the trilogy as well as other Pehov books' --SFX Magazine summer issue
