Query: An admirable Celtic fantasy, inventive and often surprising.

Ann Marston's first novel bodes well for her career infantasy. Always inventive, often surprising, "Kingmaker'sSword" leads in directions that are inevitable -- once theyhave occurred. Deftly weaving elements of sorcery, Celticmythology, swordfare, clan honor and family loyalty intoher saga, the writer takes few false steps and always leavesthe reader waiting eagerly for more. I look forward towhatever Marston has in store for the future!
