Runestone of Teiwas
"Bonham's follow-up to Prophecy of Swords features characters of mythic proportions, the sons and daughters of the gods who, nevertheless, possess passions and vulnerabilities that make them at once sympathetic and compelling. Fans of epic fantasy should enjoy this addition to the genre." -- Library Journal.
"The characters were believable in that they are in a fantasy world. But the world is nicely detailed enough that it does not get in the way of the action… and boy is there action. Lots of it. I should also note here that this book stands alone. You do not need to read the first book to follow the second." -- Wander Radio.
Prophecy of Swords
"Prophecy of Swords weaves all the right ingredients into a rich, heroic fantasy with a twisting, turning plot that carves its own original take on the genre" -- Sci-Fi London -- The London International Festival of Science Fiction and Fantastic Film.
"Fine Debut in fantasy, suspense" and "deserving attention" -- the Denver Post
9 out of 10
"Once I picked up the book, however, it drew me in, wrapping me in subtle intrigues, vagaries of politics, and poignant characters. I found it difficult to put down, taking it with me whereever I went, snatching a few moments between appointments to read a paragraph here, a page there..." -- Becka Goad SciFIFX.com

excitement and intrigue. It's hard to find a good fantasy that isn't a rehash
of all that has been done before, but Margaret H. Bonhan has managed to break
the mold and give readers something totally unique and different. A
guaranteed winner." -- Laura J. Underwood, author of ARD MAGISTER, CHRONICLES OF THE LAST WAR and forthcoming DRAGON'S TONGUE and WANDERING LARK
