Dance of the Assassins: 'Very dark, utterly addictive and simply brilliant.' (The Bookseller)
This is a gloriously silly comic book of a novel which manages, in passing, to be sweet-natured, smart and flashy. (Time Out London)
A thrilling tale ... an unusual and beautifully written story and my favourite children's book of 2004. (Books for Keeps, Best Stories of 2004)
Another thrilling read (What's on in London)
