"Like the genie of the lamp, Howard Jones has granted this reader's wish for a fresh, exciting take on the venerable genre of sword-and-sorcery!"

The Emperor's Blades (2013)
(Chronicle of the Unhewn Throne, book 1)
Brian Staveley
"Brian Staveley introduces himself to the field of epic fantasy as a storyteller to watch with an exciting first salvo involving Machiavellian politics on multiple levels, an intriguing world of magic, and three protagonists whose personal journeys after the murder of their father - the emperor - may not only save or destroy everything they hold dear but will also keep the reader impatiently waiting for the next book!"

Reign of Four: III (2015)
(Reign of Four, book 3)
Jake Bible
"Harkening back to Martinâ€™s Game of Thrones and Bujoldâ€™s Vorkosigan Saga, Reign of Four is a fast-paced fantasy epic!."
