"Although rooted in traditional fantasy, EOLYN stretches and breaks the bounds in many ways, leading to a read that is fresh and unpredictable." -- Shauna Roberts, author of Like Mayflies in a Stream and The Hunt

"Gastreich's EOLYN focuses on the emotional, political, and physical conflicts between powerful and three-dimensional characters." -- Carlyle Clark, co-author of The Apocalypse Gene

"I cannot recommend this book highly enough, and it has already earned a place on my 'Most Treasured" shelf'.
It is in a class of its own..." -- Amazon Customer Review
