  Gesture and posture convey as much
information as spoken words in Abraham's impressive first novel, a fantasy set in a world where poets create and bind
powerful shape-shifting creatures called "andat." The Empire hangs on, literally, by a thread; the cloth industry
depends on the ability of andat Seedless to magically remove seeds from cotton plants to keep commerce flowing and the
barbarians in check. Seedless, who can also remove unborn children from their mother's womb, aims to drive his
poet-creator, Heshai-kvo, mad with grief. A love triangle develops among a threesome—Heshai's apprentice, Maati;
Itani, a laborer with a past; and the beautiful scribe Liat—as they unknowingly assist the andat in his plot to
abort a wanted child. When Liat's master, Amat Kyaan, uncovers the plan, Amat must flee and live as a bookkeeper in a
brothel. The complex characters all struggle to navigate a path between their duty to their Empire and to themselves. A
blurb from George R.R. Martin will help alert his fans to this promising newcomer. (Mar.)

  Debut novelist Daniel Abraham bolts out of the gate with an enthusiastic recommendation from SF guru George R.
R. Martin. The critics agree with Martin's appraisal, and reviewers welcome Abraham's rich characterization, deft
plotting, and the particularly ambitious central conceit that ideas can be made flesh—and controlled by poets, no
less. Critics nitpick here and there (a communication method that involves posing rather than speaking furrows some
eyebrows), but nothing dissuades reviewers from eagerly awaiting the Fall, Winter, and Spring installments. (Winter
Cities will be published in 2007.)[HTML_REMOVED]Copyright © 2004 Phillips & Nelson Media, Inc.
  
 

  
  Set 15 years after the events of 2006's A
Shadow in Summer, Abraham's clever second novel follows the tribulations of Otah Machi, the sixth son of the Khai Machi.
On the demise of the Khai, one son must dispose of all other contenders in order to become the new ruler. Exiled years
ago for refusing to become a magic-wielding poet, Otah made his home far from Machi, changed his name to Itani, worked
as a laborer and never interfered in affairs of state, hoping to escape the kill-or-be-killed tradition. Now the old
Khai's death approaches, and Otah's oldest brother, Biitrah, has been smothered in his sleep. Whispered
rumor—which may have been started by the Galts, an empire desperate to destroy the house of Machi—puts the
blame for the murder on Otah. He returns to Machi, grimly acknowledging that he must kill his brothers to save himself.
Mystery, love triangles and struggles with magical creatures called andat make for a slow-starting but well-rounded
story.

  From Booklist
  
  Setting and characters in the second Long Price Quartet volume are different from
those in A Shadow in Summer (2006). In Machi, the khai, or lord of the city, is dying. Tradition enjoins his sons to
fight one another to the last man, who becomes khai. These sons are reluctant. When they start dying anyway, suspicion
falls on Otah, who fled the court years ago and now, in a distant city, is feeling torn. He doesn't want to go home, but
his father has ordered one of Otah's few known friends to get him back. Someone in the empire of the Galts is conspiring
with someone in Machi to overthrow the latter's ruling house. The world Abraham has created, in which poets who control
andats (magical beings composed of thought) constitute an elite in a once-great empire, remains fascinating, not least
because there's more of the andats and more intrapolitical bickering here as well as a collection of characters who keep
one turning pages. Murray, Frieda
  
  
 

  Daniel Abraham delighted fantasy readers with his brilliantly original and engaging first novel, and in his
second penned a tragedy as darkly personal and violent as Shakespeare's King Lear. Now he has written an epic fantasy of
much wider scope and appeal that will thrill his fans and enthrall legions of new readers.
  
  Otah Machi,
ruler of the city of Machi, has tried for years to prepare his people for a future in which the magical andat, entities
that support their commerce and intimidate all foes, can no longer be safely harnessed. But his efforts are too little,
too late. The Galts, an expansionist empire from across the sea, have tired of games of political espionage and
low-stakes sabotage. Their general, a ruthless veteran, has found a way to do what was thought impossible: neutralize
the andat. 
  
  As the Galtic army advances, the Poets who control the andat wage their own battle to save
their loved-ones and their nation. Failure seems inevitable, but success would end the Galtic threat. 
  
 
With wonderful storytelling skill, Abraham has wedded the unique magic, high-stakes betrayal and political intrigue of
his previous works with a broad tapestry of action in a spectacular fantasy epic.
  
  
  
  Starred Review. Nothing ever goes the way I
plan, laments Otah, long-suffering emperor of the Khaiem, concisely summarizing Abraham's melancholy and
near-perfect conclusion to the Long Price Quartet. Fifteen years after the disaster that led to the sterilization of all
Khaiem women and Galtish men in 2008's An Autumn War, Otah seeks an alliance between the two long-warring nations in
hopes of there being a next generation, while former poet Maati tries to teach young women to summon andat, beings that
embody and control concepts. Maati's student Vanjit harnesses the andat Clarity-of-Sight, but war trauma transforms her
from possible savior into deranged dictator. Abraham shies away from the blood and swashbuckling of the previous novels,
instead telling a tale of forgiveness and catharsis that concludes this complex saga with mixed notes of sadness and
hope. (July)

  Reviewers of science fiction and fantasy novels tend to respect
authors who wrap up a series neatly rather than spinning out endless sequels. But they also demand good endings, which
may be why expectations for Abraham's The Price of Spring were so high. The book generally met them; critics were
pleased to see that Abraham could settle all the questions raised in the earlier novels without losing any of his
innovative edge. Several reviewers felt that The Price of Spring was the best book in the series; Jo Walton (in an
independent review on Tor.com, a Web site run by the book's publisher) wrote that it is "the fastest moving and most
exciting of all the volumes.
