'An incredible, confident debut' - Dave Brendon's Weblog
"With fast and furious action and more than a smattering of sex, violence, gore and swearing this is the kind of novel where you hang onto your seat, and enjoy the ride." - High Fantasy Addict
"Danie Ware's Ecko Rising is distinctive and entertaining. Ecko is a creative and engaging anti-hero and his mashed-up cyberpunk and fantasy world holds the promise of an exciting new series." - Mind of the Geek
"Ecko Rising is truly the epitome of the expression, "a little something for everyone." It has science fiction roots, a fantasy trunk, some romance branches, and a sprinkling of humor leaves to round things out. After finishing the book, I'm still a little dumbfounded as to how Ware managed to create two worlds so vivid and so different, and put them in the same story." - Pop Culture Nexus
"There's nothing I love more than finding a book that pushes the boundaries, especially when it gives new meaning to the word "imagination," and Ecko Rising is one of those books." - Killer Aphrodite
"trust me, you're gonna want to grab a copy." - My Bookish Ways
"Ecko Rising is fast-paced, creative, and has enough going on to capture just about anyone's interest. This reader is on board for round two." - Paper Droids
"Ecko Rising is the debut novel of Danie Ware but reads more like that of a veteran storyteller with engaging characters and a polished storyline." - Dread Central
"Hollywood should take a look at this book, this would make a great sci-fi fantasy movie." - Retrenders
'Ecko is one of the most fascinating characters in scifi literature' - Wear Pink Wednesdays
"The sci-fi debut of the year begins like a cyberpunk thriller, before performing a sharp U-turn to become a rollicking high-fantasy adventure. Ware writes fearlessly and with great self-assurance, and her hero Ecko, cybernetically augmented but as crude and cynical as they come, is a magnificent creation." - Financial Times (London)
"If you're looking for some great genre-bending reading, I can't recommend Ecko Rising by Danie Ware enough. It seamlessly blends traditional cyberpunk story elements with elements of fantasy and leaves you wanting more!" - Blogcritics
"ECKO RISING is a definite win for me and I highly recommend giving it a look." "ECKO
RISING is written very well and flows like a roaring river. Ware has a subtle writing
style that lulls the reader into a false sense of security but then whips them straight
into the story without warning. This allows for complete immersion into Ecko's
world(s) and therefore an enjoyable reading experience." - Shattered Ravings
