Reviews
"Mesmerizing." -- Washington Post "A timelessly relevant classic. Brilliant, diverse, feminist, subversive, thought-provoking, and masterfully told, The Priory of the Orange Tree is an absolute must-read." -- Karen Marie Moning, #1 NYT bestselling author of the Highlander and Fever series "A brilliant, daring, and devastating jewel . . . An incredible world full of depth and danger, with characters I would follow to the ends of the earth. I'm in awe of [Shannon's] talent." -- Victoria Aveyard, #1 NYT bestselling author of the Red Queen series "An epic feminist fantasy perfect for fans of 'Game of Thrones' . . . A rich and engaging high fantasy novel that puts women and their stories front and center, The Priory of the Orange Tree will pull you into its magical world from the first page." -- Bustle "An intricately realized and feminist fantasy . . . one might even be tempted to dub Samantha Shannon, 'The female George R.R. Martin." -- Hypable "A fascinating epic fantasy set in a rich, well-developed world. Shannon has created fertile narrative ground." -- New York Review of Books "This magnificent epic of queens, dragonriders, and badass secret wyrm-slaying priestesses is a tour de force, and my new absolute favorite epic fantasy." -- Laini Taylor, NYT bestselling author of the Strange the Dreamer and Daughter of Smoke and Bone series "Spellbinding . . . extraordinary . . . A well-drawn feminist fantasy with broad appeal for fans of the epic and readers of Zen Cho, Naomi Novik, and V. E. Schwab. Highly recommended." -- Booklist, starred review "A celebration of fantasy that melds modern ideology with classic tropes. More of these dragons, please." -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review "An astonishing achievement." -- Marie Brennan, award-winning author of The Memoirs of Lady Trent series "An epic fantasy destined to be a classic." -- Kami Garcia, #1 NYT bestselling coauthor of Beautiful Creatures and author of Unbreakable "The Platonic Ideal of a fantasy novel . . . This story of good and evil, struggle and triumph, love and loss and return is beautifully written: complex but clear, and utterly immersive. I loved this book." -- Nicola Griffith, award-winning author of Hild " The Priory of the Orange Tree isn't our grandfathers' epic fantasy novel. It is a clever combination of Elizabethan England, the legend of St. George and Eastern dragon lore, with a dash of Tolkien. Shannon's feminist saga has enough detailed world-building, breath-taking action and sweeping romance to remind epic fantasy readers of why they love the genre in the first place. Modern sensibilities integrate seamlessly with genre tropes . . . Readers will beg for a sequel." -- Shelf Awareness "Shannon satisfyingly fills this massive standalone epic fantasy with court intrigue, travel through dangerous lands, fantastical religions, blood, love, and rhetoric." -- Publishers Weekly, "Mesmerizing." -- Washington Post "A timelessly relevant classic. Brilliant, diverse, feminist, subversive, thought-provoking, and masterfully told, The Priory of the Orange Tree is an absolute must-read." -- Karen Marie Moning, #1 NYT bestselling author of the Highlander and Fever series "A brilliant, daring, and devastating jewel . . .

Paige makes great strides as a memorable character." -- USA Today on THE MIME ORDER "Shannon has continued to build on this imagined world with intricacy, and Paige's voice comes through to deliver a suspenseful story." -- The Washington Post on THE MIME ORDER "Shannon now has proven staying power. Her fans will be calling for more." -- NPR.org on THE MIME ORDER
