Reviews / Votes

Brilliant * Robin Hobb, author of THE ASSASSIN'S APPRENTICE on THE BONE SHIPS * An epic tale of duty and obligation and honour, and what bravery really means . . . can't recommend it enough * Peter McLean, author of PRIEST OF BONES on THE BONE SHIPS * Excellent . . . one of the most interesting and original fantasy worlds I've seen in years * Adrian Tchaikovsky, author of CHILDREN OF TIME on the Tide Child trilogy * Swashbuckling awesomeness . . . a fascinating world and a twisty plot, both rooted in characters I came to care about. A definite winner * John Gwynne, on the Tide Child Trilogy * A viciously exciting adventure. I loved every second of it * Tasha Suri, author of Empire of Sand on THE BONE SHIPS * A vividly realised high-seas epic that pulls you deep into its world and keeps you tangled there until the very last word * Evan Winter, author of THE RAGE OF DRAGONS, on THE BONE SHIPS * The first in the Tide Child trilogy presents a unique and memorable world - harsh and brutal and full of fully realized, powerful female characters. Barker has managed to craft a story inspired by Moby Dick, Game of Thrones, and pirate lore, and readers will be drawn in and fascinated * Booklist * A rip-roaring oceanic adventure, packed with violence and beauty. It's about the beauty of the sea and the brutality of humanity, as well as huge sea monsters and ship-to-ship battles. A perfect storm of fantasy storytelling * Starburst * This world clearly contains wonders only hinted at in this first volume. Can't wait to find out more! * The Fantasy Hive, on THE BONE SHIPS * Vivid world-building and thrilling naval warfare * Novel Notions, on THE BONE SHIPS *
