Praise for The Cloud Roads and The Books of the Raksura
"Breathtakingly surprising and fun. Wells is a master
worldbuilder.”—The New York Times
“The Cloud Roads has wildly original world-building, diverse and
engaging characters, and a thrilling adventure plot. It’s that
rarest of fantasies: fresh and surprising, with a story that
doesn’t go where ten thousand others have gone before.”—N. K.
Jemisin, author of The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms
“Truly inventive and stunningly imaginative world building
perfectly melded with vivid, engaging characters make the Books of
the Raksura one of my all-time favorite science-fiction
series.”—Kate Elliott, author of the Crown of Stars series
"That rarity—a completely unique and stunning fantasy world.”—Hugo
Award-winning author Elizabeth Bear

evocative, and astonishing. Prepare to be captivated 'til the sun
comes up.”—Kameron Hurley, author of The Mirror Empire and God's
War

given their breadth, originality, complexity, this series is
showing indications it could become one of the landmark series of
the genre.”—Adventures Fantastic
“An imaginative world of engaging characters . . . the dramatic
battles, tough decisions, and character dynamics shine
through.”—Publishers Weekly
“Martha Wells' Raksura books are dense, and complex, with truly
amazing world building, and non-human characters who are quite
genuinely alien, yet still comprehensible and sympathetic.”—Kelly
