About the Author:
"A rich start to the projected trilogy, Nieve is a frighteningly delightful fairy tale for our times and is in keeping with Terry Griggs's particular, sharp, spirited style. Evocative of fantasy heroines from Alice to Coraline, Nieve makes her story her own."—Globe and Mail
"Nieve possesses a ceaseless flow of dangers and perils, and yet Griggs accomplishes this headlong narrative drive without sacrificing character development or emotional complexity. It’s a tremendously visual and visceral novel."—Quill & Quire
"Griggs is clearly an accomplished wordsmith. Her world is well imagined, and her description is often unique and surprising."—CM Magazine
