"Written in a disarmingly matter-of-fact style, this novel is often weird but sometimes wonderful as well" (Nicholas Tucker Times Educational Supplement 2007-05-25)
"Thompson's brilliantly low key writing embroiders these flights of fancy into the earthy warp and weft of family life and landscape, all beautifully described in a way that relates the fantastical to everyday issues of ecological and social responsibility" (Books for Keeps 2007-09-01)
"This is an elegant and original novel" (Inis 2007-09-01)
"It's a powerful book that dares to think as big as this one" (Mary Medlicott The School Librarian 2007-10-01)
"Imaginary and realistic worlds effortlessly coalesce" (The Irish Times 2007-12-08)
The spellbinding sequel to the multi-award-winning The New Policeman - full of fairy magic, fiddles and Irish folklore!
