Praise for Ekaterina Sedia’s Novels
The Secret History of Moscow
“Sedia’s beautifully nuanced prose delivers both a uniquely enchanting fantasy and a thoughtful allegory that probes the Russian national psyche.”
—Booklist
“A lovely, disconcerting book that does for Moscow what I hope my own Neverwhere may have done to London…”
—Neil Gaiman
“The Secret History of Moscow really feels like a secret: an alternative world a half-dimension removed from ours, a place woven out of whisper and shadow, populated with forgotten creatures and even less-remembered thoughts.”
—LA Times
“A truly remarkable performance, written in a consistently graceful and focused prose, and it succeeds both as a coherent fantasy novel and a meditation on the anxieties of history.”
—Locus
“Modern blue-collar Moscow is pitch-perfect… bustling yet seedy, disorganized and none too respectable.”
—Publishers Weekly
The Alchemy of Stone
“Sedia’s novel captures the surreal strangeness of a city whose power structure is about to be toppled, and her focus on Mattie’s relationship with her creator allows her to grapple with the tiny power struggles inherent in all human relationships.”
—io9
“Sedia’s evocative third novel, a steampunk fable about the price of industrial development, deliberately skewers familiar ideas, leaving readers to reach their own conclusions about the proper balance of tradition and progress and what it means to be alive.”
—Publishers Weekly, starred review
The House of Discarded Dreams
“Sedia’s prose is a pleasure, her story a lovely place to have spent time, even with the horrors her characters face.”
—Booklist
“A quirky, joyous fantasy, Sedia shows how competing natural and supernatural worldviews can enrich each other.”
—Publishers Weekly
Heart of Iron
“Sedia superbly blends novel of manners, alternate history, and le Carré-style espionage with a dash of superheroes and steampunk.”
—Publishers Weekly, starred review
