Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by stephanie
awesomeness
I love this book! I never once put it down while reading the thing. It totally rocks my socks! Yay!

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Kathryn Minn
The Cry Of The Icemark
I thought that this book was amazing. Stuart Hill achives the ultimate story line which gets you so attached. I just couldn't put the book down. The way he write's it makes you feel like you step into another world, a world of monsters, vampires and werewolves. It is really an excellent book.

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Emily Quick-In-The-Brain and Fox of the South
Wow
That was all I could say when I finished this book. I was unsure of it when i got it at my school book fair, but I hadn't seen what one of my favorite authors had said about it. I loved this book even more than Eragon, and THAT'S saying something my fellow readers.

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Jake
Cry of the Icemark
Ah, this book. It exploded into the dull monotony of todays standard, stereotypical warrior/army/war books for children with a dazzling flash that kept on shining. Stuart, an unknown author, made his debut with shocking success. This book, and its successor, Blade of Fire, are amongst, if not precedent of, the best book I have ever read in my life. 13 years though that may be, I think I can safely say I have read a lot more than most! I have over five hundred books in my bedroom alone, and I can tell you that my hand will always go to that particular tome when I want a good adventure story. A fantastic read; well done Stuart Hill!

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Riley Belle
Fantastic
This book is the best book I have ever read. The book was about a 14 year-old warrior princess, Thirrin, who unexpectedly becomes queen of the Icemark. I enjoyed how Stuart Hill used many little details to set the story plot and make this a great story.I loved this book so much when I found out there was going to be a seqel I had to read it so I found it and read it in 3 days! I really hope he writes either a new series or a third book in the Chronicles of the Icemark.

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Amanda Crawford
The Cry of the Icemark is the best book of all time. A wild 14 year old warrior- princess must overcome impossible dangers and save her kingdom from being annhialated by the most cunning and deadly army that the kingdom of Icemark and the world has ever known. She must forge unlikely alliances with former enemies. And she must rally her kingdom and allies together with her countries fierce battle cry "Blood, Blast, and Fire!" You won't be able to put this book down, you'll be so engrossed in this book that you will be lost to the world and caught up in the warrior princess's world.(This review written by a 12 year old)
