Washington Post

"Guild has surpassed himself with this long historical novel, which is entertaining from start to finish and leaves one with the feeling that there could yet be another to follow . . .dare we hope!"

Publishers Weekly

"Shot through with dark, exotic lyricism, Guild's majestic historical epic cuts a wide swath through ancient Assyria, Egypt, Phoenicia, Sicily, Greece. . .  This saga serves up a rich, intoxicating feast, interweaving a cultural anthropology of unfamiliar lands and a stoic meditation on mortality, fate, revenge and justice, the ties of love and blood."

Philadelphia Inquirer

"The Blood Star is the kind of novel they invented summers, vacations and beaches for.  It is a big, grand spectacle, an epic read that takes you back 2,700 years to ancient Assyria,  It so vividly re-creates the period that you'd swear author Nicholas Guild researched the book in a previous life . . .The Blood Star is more than 660 pages long, and The Assyrian is almost as weighty, but no matter how many hours you spend with these tales, you'll be sorry when the last page is turned."
