Diana Gabaldon

Author of Outlander, Dragonfly In Amber and Voyager

     "The Southwestern United States is the most interesting and exotic part of the country. It is also, strangely, the most neglected by writers, perhaps especially in the science fiction and fantasy fields. Thus is was very good to see Adam Niswander use this setting knowledgeably, sympathetically, and, above all, excitingly, in The Charm. Now he has done The Serpent Slayers, a book just as taut and evocative. How fine that we can look forward to a third."

Poul Anderson

Hugo and Nebula Award winning Author

     "I predict a great future for this group of shamans . . . the books are real grabbers, have a great plot . . . significant character differentiation, and the second follows well on the heels of the first. The Charm and The Serpent Slayers are among the best first novels I have read in 47 years of reading SF and fantasy . . . a great read!"
