Summary: A touching and unique gothic fantasy!
Review: So sad it's out of print! It's companion books are just as hard to find so I keep lending out my copy and having to fight to get it back! It is now well worn from the love of many readers. Excellent cover art is the immediate draw but the extensive maps and winding, teasing, emotionally bolstering story tie One into the world of Tai-Tastigon so pleasurably that one wishes and secretly believes it might happen in this world. A must for spiral dancing goths or thieves of hearts. -J

Summary: A must read for any serious reader of fantasy
Review: The book is simply delightful. P.C. Hodgell's wonderfully believable characters in a wonderfully believable world create a depth of reality rarely matched. Can be read as a swift read on a rainy Sunday afternoon (but much will be missed) or can be slowly consumed to ensure no nuance is lost. Do the latter, this book deserves it.

Summary: Strikingly memorable
Review: This is more story than review but... I read "God Stalk" when it first came out. It hooked me in a big way, with vivid images and a highly memorable heroine. I craved more and every time I went into a bookstore for several years afterward, I would religiously look to see if Hodgell had come out with a sequel. Eventually I gave up looking, with deep regret. Years later I discovered, to my intense delight, that there had been several sequels. (Apparently they weren't distributed to the bookstores I frequented.) Bottom line, "God Stalk" was a favorite of mine. I know of other people on whom it made just as strong an impression. Reading other reviews, it is apparent that not everyone responds to the novel this way. So no guarantees. But if it hits the spot for you, it may hit it just right. Excellent.

Summary: God Stalk
Review: This is one of the very best books that I have read, and I have read extensively in the SciFi genre. If you have as well, you are most likely aware of what seems to be a pronounced lack of quality work there at times...this book will renew your faith. The first time I read it, I was not more than ten years old. In later years, I thought that my memory of the book may have been exaggerated by that fact, but after reading it again I was very pleasantly surprised to find that I enjoyed it even more. This is well worth the book search...

Summary: Jamethiel's fight for survival and search for her brother
Review: This story is almost believable with the imagery the words bring to life. Is this book, I expected a tough hard-nosed woman hero. But I was much happier with what I found. Instead of a woman, It was a girl of about 18. Someone who was real an unexpected. If I could I would recommend this book for every creative writing award known to man. Jamethiel is a character so powerful and real you'd actual wonder what city this person is living in.

Summary: If there is ONE Book you SHOULD take with you this one is it
Review: When a young woman stumbles into a city, whoes streets are deserted and all the doors are closed up, carrying only a backpack on a night called: The feast of the Dead Gods....you KNOW You have to read on! Engaging, humorus, and gripping from the first page, God Stalk is a book you just can not (and I highly recommend you do not) Put down! You feel compelled to turn the page just to see what the heroine, Jame has gotten herself into and out of next! Filled with characters that are so real you can almost feel thier presence in your room. Ms. Hodgell has a firm and competely masterful grip on the english language. She is able to script in a very Direct manner which is witty and laced with humour. From the deepest most serious side of nature to sparks of humor that make you laugh in perfect tension breaking moments.Find the book! Order the book! READ this book and then be totally satisfied that you did. God Stalk is a rare type of book that will not stay on a bookshelf for long. It is a book that you will keep near you for months just to re-read it over and over again.
