"In the space of a short year and a
half, Michael Sullivan has moved from a small press
debut author that featured in one of my first "Indie
Spotlight Reviews" to a "name" in the fantasy field who
sold-out his first novel and is getting both critical
acclaim and fan appreciation...The Emerald Storm is an
A++ and a top fantasy of 2010.
" -- Liviu Suciu, Fantasy Book
Critic
"So far, The
Emerald Storm is my favorite book of the series. There
are a few elements reminiscent of classic adventure literature, a
who-done-it mystery, a pirate tale, and a thriller-type plot twist
or two. I particularly enjoyed the warrior-tribe culture of the
land of Calis." --

"For
fans or for newcomers to the Riyria
Revelations, The Emerald Storm is a breathtaking
read that manages to invoke the spirit of classic literature
- from the Odyssey type journey of the Storm's crew,
to the foreign jungles and violent trek that invoke images
of Heart of Darkness...The ending will leave you itching for
the next book" --

"I
can't suggest these books enough. They are
light-hearted yet deep. They are fast paced and
involving. They remind me of old-school adventure
fantasy and political spy thrillers.
These are the quintessential fun summer-time reads
that I find so enjoyable when the heat index rises
and the days grow longer lending themselves to lots of
reading by the pool. It's a heady mix, and I
sincerely hope you give yourself a few hours to give
them a try." --

"Sullivan does a
particularly good job about making you care
about character’s new and old...They [The Riyria Revelations] continue to
touch upon familiar tropes of the sword and sorcery genre
while managing to infuse an originality and vitality to the
proceedings that is nigh impossible to ignore...Really folks, you should
be reading this series."--
