“Thorpe writes strong, uncluttered narrative, and his characters actually sound like real people.”
- Tom Holt, SFX
“there’s plenty to keep you turning the pages… An intriguing ending promises something different for book two”
- SFX Magazine
“The Crown of the Blood should really have a warning sticker on the front (Angry Robots take note) it’s one of those books that are almost impossible to put down, so much so that you find yourself unconsciously continuing to (try to) read after geeting up to make a brew / go to work / go to bed (delete as applicable and don’t try this at home kids). The novel also stands out with a very strong opening scene and excellent end, with a genuinely unexpected twist.”
