Series fans will not be disappointed." --Publishers Weekly "Eye Spy feels like a present written especially for me. You're gonna want to read it. This one's a firecracker." --Tor.com "Whether it's the spellbinding world, the intrigue of the plot, or the simple yet remarkable narrative style--it is impossible to say which of these makes the story so good, but one thing is for sure: Closer to Home marks the beginning of another fantastic Lackey series." --RT Reviews "Mags remains an engaging character, and makes a very capable spy/investigator.... His adventures still make engrossing reading." --Locus "Returning to her beloved Valdemar universe, Lackey opens her new series at a pivotal time in the history of Valdemar.... Series fans will enjoy the variations on a familiar theme, while enough information is presented for first-timers to discover a world of high adventure and individual courage.
