Review:  Heroes Arise

"Heroes Arise provides a fascinating journey into an alien culture, one more open and honorable than our own---although like us in its capacity for violence. As I read, I was reminded of classic tales by Leigh Brackett and C. L. Moore, yet the story has a modern sensibility and depth of characterization. A promising debut for Laurel Anne Hill."

"No stereotypes here . . . A fine job, and well worth your reading time."

"In Heroes Arise, Hill has created a rich, fully-realized fantasy world with a wonderfully textured background---mythology, history, tribal customs---and then stripped it of all pretense to give the reader a sleek, fast-paced adventure story."
