The sun did not rise on the morning of the trial, and neither did Slava’s spirits… As younger sister to the Empress of all of Zem’ and the only one possessing her foremothers’ gifts of clairvoyance, Slava is both one of the most powerful and powerless people in the Known World. Desperate to escape the intrigue and hostility of her sister’s kremlin, Slava takes off on an expedition to the Midnight Land, the uninhabited, unmapped tundra on the Northern edge of Zem’. But as she travels North, Slava discovers that it is more than just the world of women that covets her gifts, and that fate is pushing her to become a most unlikely hero… Combining motifs from classical Russian literature with the genre of high fantasy, this book is both a gripping coming-of-age tale and a subversive exploration of gender, morality, and subjectivity.

Review "A bold beginning to a series that explores gender, empathy, and the frozen north." Kirkus."A riveting saga from beginning to end, "The Midnight Land: The Flight" will leave fantasy fiction fans looking eagerly toward the next installment of this outstanding series." Midwest Book Review."The Midnight Land- Part 1" by E.P. Clark is one awesome book that I will not soon forget, and I already can't wait to start the next one (Midnight Land part 2 - The Gift). I've read a lot of high/epic fantasy and this one really stands out in terms of originality, and I loved the Russian infusion." Indie Book Reviewers. "an original, and ambitious fantasy, perfectly executed...in a way that really brings to light some of the embedded aspects of our own male-centric culture while peppering it with a range of strong and assertive female characters." Manhattan Book Review. "Beautifully unique and rich in a Central European and West Asian feel that comes together with a surprising and wonder-filled world. The writing has a telling aura of worldly experience, which has lent itself to a gorgeous mix of ideas and a distinctive writing style that I quickly fell in love with. The Midnight Land is sure to do you well in its inspired, character-driven tale of wonder and outer and inner discovery." SPR. "Imagine reading Shackleton or Cook's journals, only with spirits and gods and psychic powers...[The] Midnight Land is a book of exploration, of a young woman coming to accept herself and her own abilities in life, and a fun frolic in the snow. A perfect read for a long winter's night, especially if you have too much or not enough snow." San Francisco Book Review.
About the Author E.P. Clark starting writing fiction as soon as she deigned to learn to read, which was not particularly early—she spent a good deal of her childhood doing more important things, such as pretending to be a unicorn. Slightly later, she wanted to be a world-class equestrian. But, much to her surprise, the heavy finger of fate pointed her way and she ended up moving to Russia, which led, very circuitously, to her earning graduate degrees in Russian from Columbia University and UNC-Chapel Hill, and her current employment teaching Russian at Wake Forest University. Along the way there have been some odd travel opportunities: for example, almost being trampled by stampeding reindeer in Finnish Lapland. She continued writing fiction throughout all this, however, and has had multiple short stories published. This is her first novel, in what is shaping up to be a trilogy in seven volumes.

I am eager to read the rest of the trilogy and predict a great future for Ms By rosegarden An enchanting fantasy reminiscent of classical Russian fairy tales. I was so drawn in that I was loathe to put the books down until I had finished both volumes. The characters became so real that I felt a bond of friendship in spite of the era and fanciful nature of their lives. Having travelled extensively in Russia, I could feel the eeriness of the forests described by the author. I am eager to read the rest of the trilogy and predict a great future for Ms. Clark if she continues to produce this quality of work.
2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. I would like to say By Shanlynn Walker First, I would like to say, I absolutely loved the story-line in this book. I would completely rate it 5 stars. It was a very intriguing story about a girl with the power of empathy and how she learns to deal with other's emotions and how they influence her own. Along the way there are also talking animals, an adventurous journey, and self discovery - lots of self discovery. It makes you wonder at the line between right and wrong, and the perception of each. It's great.There were only a few things I didn't like about the story, and although they were minor, they were cumbersome enough for me to give the book four stars and not five, like I would have were I simply rating the story-line as I said previously. First, the names are all Russian-like names and very hard to pronounce, not to mention, very long. They are also very similar, which makes it really easy to get confused if you are not very careful about which character the author is talking about. There is actually a sort of guide at the beginning of the book to show you how to say some of the names, etc., and I ended up going back to refer to it many times throughout. I really didn't like that. It was like I had to pause the story long enough to go find out how to pronounce something, so eventually I gave it up and started assigning them all nicknames so I could simply continue reading. I actually nicknamed one of the B. Coleslaw...Finally, there is a large amount of description in the book, which is awesome in a lot of it, but simply dragged in others. I know as an author myself how hard it is to immerse a reader in a fantasy world without making it boring through endless description. The main character, Slava, I felt was over-described in quite a few places, but in different ways that were saying essentially the same thing.Overall, I will say I highly recommend the book for fantasy readers. It's a great book, and honestly, I sometimes have the attention span of a fruit fly, so for others out there who enjoy more description and fleshed out tales, this is a fantastic story. Even with my short attention span and lack of interest in never-ending descriptors, I still enjoyed it, and that's saying a lot!
2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Such Intrigue! By Alan M. Clark In The Midnight Land: Part One: The Flight (The Zemnian Trilogy Book 1) E. P. Clark has written a fantastic story of a young woman’s emotional growth while wrestling with what is both gift and curse—an overwhelming sense of empathy for others. Her name is Slava. As a princess within a royal court of scheming, back-biting, duplicitous family members and courtiers, she endures debilitating ambivalence as a result of both hating those scheming for their self-serving nature and having compassion for their use of such strategy to survive within a dog-eat-dog world. Her growth truly begins when she leaves that world and is thrust among common folk within a beautiful, vast, and deadly wilderness full of mysteries, magical entities, and sorcerers. I will say no more but that I highly recommend this title, and that I’m off to begin the next volume in the Midnight Land series.
