Don D'Ammassa calls Schweitzer's stories "some of the more interesting sword and sorcery style fantasy fiction being published these past few years," and Sekenre "probably Schweitzer's most interesting character, a combination of a child and a powerful sorcerer who has almost ceased to be a human being." He finds "[t]he quality [of the collection] very consistent so it's hard to single out individual stories, but I'd pick 'On the Last Night of the Festival of the Dead' and 'The Lantern of the Supreme Moment' as the two I enjoyed the most."[2]
