"A New York Times Best Fantasy of 2022! ""All the Horses of Iceland is a slim and beautiful chronicle in the tradition of Naomi Mitchison and Ursula K. Le Guin. ...The result is a sorcerous journey through hospitality and enchantment."" --The New York Times ""Sarah Tolmie has a light touch, a powerful voice, and a vivid sense of place and period."" --Elizabeth Bear ""Tolmie brings a scholarly precision to her fantasy that makes magic mundane and the mundane utterly sublime . . . deeply refreshing, a kind of grace."" --The New York Times"
