Praise for Titans of Chaos:
“A torrent of events surges forth, on of the most sustained action sequences I can remember reading; the boisterous cliffhanger-infested cavalcade Wright unleashes is something remarkable, some of his best writing yet and often exceptionally funny.” --Locus
“Wright follows in the footsteps of Neil Gaiman and Tim Powers with his own distinctive style...A highly enjoyable ride.” –Publishers Weekly
Praise for Orphans of Chaos, Nebula Nominee 2005, A Locus Year’s Best 2005
“I don’t know if John Wright’s intent for Orphans of Chaos was to write a Harry Potter for grownups. But that’s what he’s accomplished. . . .highly enjoyable.” --SFsite
“An exciting, unusual, and very satisfying ride through the author’s imagination, and the results are certainly going to make Wright even more of a hot property. If it wasn’t as well written as it is, it would still be a nice antidote to the generic fantasy that lurks behind most new covers lately, and it’s a lot more than that as well.” --Chronicle
“In the first installment of the Chronicle of Chaos series, common associations of high school with prison prove spectacularly well founded. . .Wright’s growing fandom will revel in his overlapping frames of reference.” --Booklist
“Wright has written a modern-day fantasy that borrows from many traditions and mythologies and has the feel of an epic. A solid selection for most libraries.” –Library Journal
“Formidably erudite, a stylist capable of moving prose poetry and hilarious rodomontade and many measures between, a master of exceedingly complex plotting, and astonishingly fecund with ideas. These qualities are abundantly present in Orphans of Chaos. . . . Orphans is thus an excellent book, a splendid exercise in high-concept metaphysical romance.” --Locus
“Start of a complex mythology-based series from the author of the astonishing far-future Golden Age trilogy . . . . Fascinatingly, dazzlingly, almost pointlessly erudite fantasy that trends inexorably toward science fiction; addicts will pounce.” –Kirkus, starred review
“Wright’s myth-infused fantasy looks like something older Harry Potter fans might enjoy with its creaky British boarding school setting and its five ageless orphans—Colin, Quentin, Victor, Vanity, and Amelia each with a supernatural gift. . . . Those who like sophisticated fantasy with a mild erotic charge will be most rewarded.” –Publishers Weekly
