Review
"Once again de Castell has raised the stakes of his series with a fantastic new villain, and he has pulled together the threads of his past four books to create a very memorable conclusion. Tyrant's Throne has everything you love about the previous books; heartbreaking moments, laugh out loud humor, a loveable/hateable cast of characters, a fascinating world, and a fantastic author's voice."
―The Quill to Live
"This final adventure had heartache and loss, but also ended on that most uplifting and enduring of human conditions: hope. It is a beautiful ending to a fabulous series that ranges from swashbuckling fun to deep philosophical ponderations."
―A Fantastical Librarian
Praise for Tyrant's Throne
"I've heard that final books in a series are notoriously difficult to pull off, but dammit, [de Castell] makes it look so easy. Everything I love about the previous novels can be found once again in this one, including the epic action, laugh-out-loud humor, daring heroics, and inspiring gallantry. No one can make me flip between nail-biting despair and giddy fist-pumping exuberance that way de Castell can, sending my pulse racing with every high-stakes plot development. The story is compelling and intense, featuring relentless pacing and an extraordinarily rich cast. All the characters I love (along with some dazzling new faces!) are back as well, ready to kick some ass and take some names, making Tyrant's Throne a finale to remember."
―Bibliosanctum
"As heroic/tragic character arcs go, I am not sure there's a better one anywhere in epic fantasy today . . . I hesitate to use the word 'perfect' but this is about as close as epic fantasy gets to that plateau. Character arcs, storytelling, world building, mythology, conflicts, and relationships--it all comes together in a brilliantly satisfying finale of fiction that keeps going right to the very last page."
― Beauty in Ruins
"Three rousing cheers and a massive huzzah for this final installment of the Greatcoats saga. Blades flash, arrows fly, trysts are made and broken as the story rises to a thrilling climax."―Jamie Buxton, Daily Mail
"This series deserves just as much credit, praise, and adoration, if not more so, than The Kingkiller Chronicle, A Song of Ice and Fire, Mistborn, and all the other popular high fantasy that is loved and celebrated."

Praise for Saint's Blood
"If you enjoy fast-paced, edge-of-your-seat adventure and compelling, believable characters battling overwhelming odds yet never giving in, you can't beat the Greatcoats series. To read them is to love them." ―The Oklahoman
"This is a great series, that gets better with each book, while Traitor's Blade was good, an impressive debut and decent start to the series, Knight's Shadow improved on it in every way and with Saint's Blood de Castell has managed yet again to top his previous book by creating what will surely be one of the best fantasy books of the year. You're pulled in from the first page through to the last in this fast paced, character driven epic where come the final page you are left wanting more!"―Tattooed Book Geek
"I can't say enough good things about Saint's Blood. The camaraderie between Falcio, Kest, and Brasti was as strong as ever. They are like three brothers who talk, joke, bluff, and fight their way through the worst of scenarios. Saint's Blood was really an enjoyable sequel full of hope and action."―Shelf Inflicted
Praise for Knight's Shadow
"I had an amazing time with this book. Greatcoats is now up there on my list of favorite fantasy series."―Bibliosanctum
"Knight's Shadow truly is a must-read book . . . the kind of historical fantasy that makes everything else pale in comparison."―Beauty in Ruins
"The fantastic dialogue, the humor, the twists and the exhilarating action all make this a worthy sequel to Traitor's Blade. It has certainly proven that de Castell is not a one-hit wonder."―Draumr Kopa Blog
"The shocking ending left my completely stunned . .
