Firebrand (Rebel Angels)
"Once a year, a new novelist really blows me away. Last year it was Suzanne Collins withThe Hunger Games…. This year it's Gillian Philip'sFirebrand…. A fantastically violent, utterly thrilling tale....Firebrandis one of the very best...Philip’s clear prose is as fiery as whiskey…. The best fantasy novel of 2010."—The Sunday Times"Philip has created an utterly believable other world, where male and female are equals in arms. It is often stark and brutal but with moments of heartbreaking beauty."—The Guardian
