Kay writes… I'd like to say how much I enjoyed the Gods and Warriors series. It always seems underappreciated compared to the Wolfbrother series (which I also really enjoyed, incidentally) In both series – but particularly G&W- the style of writing, the density of information and the creation of atmosphere were masterly. I know the…
