Prince Oliver Dawn Claw, heir to the Kingdom of the Four Claws, is thrust into a world he doesn' t understand as he waits for his father to die. Meanwhile, Adeline Brand refuses to wait, and enters a fight she doesn' t know if she can win. ' Best described as George R. R. Martin meets H. P. Lovecraft, The Glass Breaks is a fine example of British fantasy writing at its most entertaining' Guardian A MAN OF THE DAWN CLAW WILL BE THE ALWAYS KING. It will ever be so. They will always rule. . . but they will not always lead. Prince Oliver Dawn Claw, heir to the Kingdom of the Four Claws, is thrust into a world he doesn' t understand as he waits for his father to die. Away from home, with few allies - and too many enemies - he faces a new and otherworldly threat from beneath the sea. Alliances break and masks fall, as the Dark Brethren reveal their true master. Meanwhile, Adeline Brand - called the Alpha Wolf - refuses to wait, and becomes the edge of the sword that swings back at the Dreaming God. Assembling allies and crushing resistance, she enters a fight she doesn' t know if she can win, as the sea begins to rise. PRAISE FOR A. J.

' High fantasy, military exploits, and touches of an almost Lovecraftian mythos' Publishers Weekly. ' Epic fantasy at its scary, fun, sarcastic, shock-laden best' The Bookbag. ' Fans of George R. R. Martin and Joe Abercrombie will find much to like in this bloody, grimdark fantasy' * Booklist *
