Reception

Pat Ferrara of mania.com comments: "Although constrained somewhat in geographic scope, The Grieving Tree's plot keeps up its fast pace as major narrative points are brought to light and polished. [...] What I liked most about this novel is the sheer subtlety in characterization: a slew of new characters aren’t introduced but the ones that carried over from The Binding Stone show, by their actions, that you've only seen the tip of their personality icebergs. [...] Smooth action and an unresolved final confrontation ensures that the series won’t lose speed as it approaches its final volume."[1]

gollark: Nebulae for every conceivable colour!
