PRAISE FOR A.J. SMITH: 'Best described as George R.R. Martin meets H.P. Lovecraft, The Glass Breaks is a fine example of British fantasy writing at its most entertaining' Guardian. 'Sieges, catapults, battles, longswords, beheadings a-plenty, profanity and rather bloody mayhem. Brilliant' SFFWorld. 'High fantasy, military exploits, and touches of an almost Lovecraftian mythos' Publishers Weekly. 'Epic fantasy at its scary, fun, sarcastic, shock-laden best' The Bookbag. 'Fans of George R.R. Martin and Joe Abercrombie will find much to like in this bloody, grimdark fantasy' * Booklist *
