Praise for I, Iago: "This is an astonishing work of imaginative empathy, buttressed by deep research and enriched by lively storytelling.Galland takes one of Shakespeare's most enigmatic characters and creates a full life for him, sweeping the reader into the vibrant world of Venetian intrigue and the carrying us, also, to the deep places of the human heart." - Geraldine Brooks, Pulitzer Prize-winning author "The delights of this book, lushly set in Renaissance Venice, lie in Galland's ability to take a series of tiny mistakes, deceptions and wrong turns and roll them into a juggernaut." - More Magazine Praise for Crossed: "[A] funny (really!) look at this disastrous Crusade through the eyes of a wacky Welshman, a pious knight and his half-brother and an Arab princess (who isn't what she seems) they hope to return to her Egyptian home. It's a raucous road trip set in the 13th century." - New York Post "Nicole Galland has written the most delightful rollicking comedy of a book. Stepdog is pure genius." - Susan Wilson, New York Times bestselling author of The Dog Who Saved Me and One Good Dog "A lovely, funny novel about a typical romance, complete with immigration bureaucrats, psychopathic exes, fiddle music, moonshine, articulate biker gangs, rat poison, cross-country chases, literal cliffhangers, and the most adorable dog since Benji.
You know, just like your relationship." - Peter Sagal, Host, NPR's Wait Wait.Don't Tell Me! " Stepdog is an exciting, very funny, and uncommonly kind book. It's a 'curl up with a good book' book and, like Albert Payson Terhune's classic tales, Nicole Galland's Stepdog puts the dog exactly where she belongs: at the center of the human heart." - Donal McCaig, author of Nop's Trials and Eminent Dogs, Dangerous Men "The reader's enjoyment of this story rides entirely on whether Rory's first-person narration is charming or not, and dog lovers may question his inability to immediately fall in love with such a perfect dog. But that's sort of the point of the book. Don't worry, it has a sweet, happy ending." - Booklist Praise for Revenge of the Rose: "A tasty fictional stew, mixing elements of twelfth-century culture together skillfully to produce a veritable reading feast .
The combination of vicious politics, mysterious doings, betrayals, and double-dealing, added to a leisurely but engaging plot, will keep those pages turning." - Booklist Praise for The Fool's Tale: "A wallop of a first novel--entertaining and engaging." - San Francisco Chronicle "Romantic comedies may be Galland's new specialty. Readers who have furry best friends will totally gravitate to this tale of a woman's love for her dog." - RT Book Reviews.
