Reviews
“Sands relates a unique tale of little known time and culture where human sacrifice is commonplace and the magic and miracles of the gods are manifest in the everyday lives of the people.” —Library Journal
“Her strong sequel to Sky Knife will bring Sands’ readers back into the fascinating realm of Mayan culture and folklore…Sands’ knowledge of Mayan ritual is impressive, and she spins a good story. A banquet of imaginative characters–Sky Knife’s brave battalion of friends include a prostitute, a hustler, and a dwarf–enliven this engaging tale.” —Publishers Weekly
