"Striking. . . . Written in a controlled, almost Kazuo Ishiguro-an style. . . .The style and setting and court language stay with you."-- New York Times "Challenging, invigorating, and unique. If courtly intrigue is your wine of choice, The Goblin Emperor is the headiest vintage I've come across in years." -- Scott Lynch, bestselling author of The Lies of Locke Lamora "I liked it. It's a fantasy, a novel of court intrigue. Those of you who like that aspect of my own work will probably like The Goblin Emperor as well."--George R. R. Martin "Spellbinding. . . . Unreservedly recommended."--Kirkus, starred review "Fantastic." -- Library Journal , starred review "Subtle, intricate, fascinating worldbuilding."--Katherine Arden, author of The Bear and the Nightingale "I enjoyed The Goblin Emperor a great deal. I was sucked right into her world of goblins, elves, and airships, and was anxious to the very end to find out how Maia, the unwanted halfblood son of the Emperor, who finds himself unexpectedly on the throne, learns to navigate the intrigues and danger of the imperial court. An engrossing read!" -- Kristen Britain, New York Times bestselling author of Blackveil "Impressively elaborate worldbuilding underpins this lovely fantasy novel, but I couldn't put it down because of the heart-grippingly sympathetic main character."-- Kate Elliott, bestselling author of Unconquerable Sun " The Goblin Emperor has one of the most lovable characters we've met in ages. . . . Remarkably compelling and fascinating."-- iO9 "Ambitious and meticulously executed."-- Publishers Weekly "Addison has built a completely believable world, complete with its own language, customs, and history, but there are tantalizingly familiar elements (such as newspapers and pocket watches) that make us wonder from whence this world came and whether it might have sprung from our own, in a distant future." -- Booklist " The Goblin Emperor made me remember why I fell in love with the fantasy genre."--Jim C. Hines, bestselling author of Goblin Quest "Katherine Addison has written a nuanced and compelling story. Her world is unusual and vivid, her characters affecting, and her storytelling subtle and deft. This is a book I will be thinking about for a long time. Highly recommended!" -- D. B.

    I got 4 books from this seller. One was wrong book (same writer,simular covers) which,when you order used books several at a time from big used book warehouses, this happens every now and then. Seller contacted me and refunded within a couple hours on the same business day. These people do business right.The 3 others were just as described, packed perfect. Shipping was on time. Good books at good price and a seller who does business right. I highly recommend this seller and the items I ordered.
