Praise for this book

"Bloody brilliant. I loved this book. I wish I'd written it." - Ben Kane

"An 11th-century epic with action to equal the best of Bernard Cornwell. THIS is writing." - Anthony Riches

"Only once in a generation does a first novel emerge which has such power and depth and scope. With Hawk Quest, Robert Lyndon has shown himself a master storyteller of the highest quality. An absorbing, viscerally moving epic that takes the standard historical fare of love, treachery, passion, and redemption and lifts them into a new stratosphere. I got lost in this for days on end, and never wanted to emerge. Outstanding!" - M C Scott
