""A swashbuckling escape for avid readers that trades buttoned-up boundaries for unbridled adventure."" --Kirkus Reviews, starred review ""A rollicking adventure yarn with plenty of heart - Emilie & the Hollow World shouldn't be missed."" --Ann Aguirre, USA Today bestselling author ""Read it. Give it to your local twelve-year-olds. It's made of win."" -Liz Bourke, author of Sleeps With Monsters Praise for The Murderbot Diaries ""If you need something light, a little violent and laugh-out-loud hilarious, dive into this series: You may find that you have more in common with Murderbot than you think."" --Liz Braswell, The Wall Street Journal ""Readers won't miss the wall-to-wall action that defined the series from its beginning. The characters and the world building remain engrossing and rewarding."" --Booklist, starred review ""I love Murderbot!"" --Ann Leckie ""The most heartwarming action-packed literally explosive space opera I've enjoyed in a long time. Martha Wells is the best writer of loveable snarky gender-subversive killing machines out there!"" --N. K. Jemisin ""We are all a little bit Murderbot.""--NPR Praise for Witch King ""Wells is working at the height of her powers here, and it's relaxing to be carried along for a ride in the company of such a phenomenal storyteller."" --The New York Times ""A wonderfully original world, sympathetic characters and a solid quest make Witch King the satisfying fantasy you yearn for when named swords and cursed rings begin to grow stale."" --The Wall Street Journal ""A wildly original and complex fantasy exploring how revolutions are won through trust, and destroyed through selfishness. Wells excels at brooding, powerful inhuman protagonists who just need a little kindness to be their badass best."" --N. K. Jemisin ""...The kind of novel you want to sink into, with a narrative style that hooks you in and makes it impossible to put down."" --Alex Brown for NPR ""Unlike anything I've ever read. A layered and complex novel that delivers on the promise of epic fantasy."" --Zoraida Córdova ""Fantasy readers looking for new worlds and characters to explore will be enthralled."" --Library Journal
