Recensioner i media

Romantic and action-packed, Kwok serves a searing entry into the genre of romantasy. DOMINION is a feast for the senses with deadly magic tournaments, mythical companion animals, and Chinese-inspired elements - with a burning romance and shocking twists. At the story's heart, Kwok draws a fierce yet tender character of diaspora in Rubi Morningtail as she grapples with fitting in to a new world and new identity.
