Raves and Reviews
“Wrath of N’kai is yet more evidence, were it needed, that Reynolds is the reigning master of the occult detective genre. There is no one who does it better, and Wrath of N’kai should take pride of place in anyone’s occult horror collection.”
– – SciFi and Fantasy Reviewer
“[Curse of Honor is] A fantastic story that manages to be both accessible for readers who know nothing about the setting as well as engaging for long time fans.”
– – Imperial Advisor: The L5R LCG Show
“[The Fractured Void is] Fast-paced adventure.”
– – Tim Frankovich
“You pick it [The Doom of Fallowhearth] up and start it thinking it’s gonna be just a pulpy fantasy adventure. But it’s not, it’s deeply emotional and shows that a good writer and make a familiar and well trod genre, fresh and invigorating. Solid ?????.”
– – Big Geordie Geek
“[The Last Ritual] would make a wonderful TV serial, akin to the recent Lovecraft Country. I enjoyed my time in this strange land immensely, and am looking forward very much to the next titles in the series. Absolutely recommended.”
– – The Catbox
“The single best Legend of the Five Rings novel… Poison River was an excellent read. The protagonist is interesting, the conspiracy he investigates is coherent, and his adventure riveting.”
