Doesn't help that Black Wolves and its eventual series turn out to be a stealth sequel to one of her other epic series, which honestly I think ought to be mentioned on the cover.
That said, I have an actual recommendation, because after bouncing so hard with Black Wolves I thought to myself, so, if the problems are scale and length... and this proved to be the case; the short fiction collection The Very Best Of Kate Elliott is not only telling the truth with its title but is legitimately no-caveats good. Some of it is very good. It made me want to sit her down and say, so, I know you can't make a living on short work, but have you considered writing a hundred-fifty-page stand-alone novel?
If she ever does, I'll read it, but epic fantasy is In right now and is one of the few areas in the field where you can make some money, so I don't think it's likely.
