"...the potential social disruption when a technological advance, such as firearms, shifts the distribution of force from a small elite to the masses. It’s complicated, however, by the factor of racism and hostility between the two populations" —Lois Tilton, Locus online
"...a thought-provoking speculative fiction on philosophical themes, positing a dualistic, dichotomistic universe of opposing principles: life/death, male/female, predator/prey. At its center is an eternal conflict between the two divine principles over control of the nature and destiny of life.." —Lois Tilton, Locus online
"The best story of the month, well conceived and well written" —Lois Tilton, Locus online
"'Worth of Crows' was excellent" —Lou Anders, Hugo Award-winning editor of Pyr Books
