Review:
This is one of those rare, strange, wonderful books that makes you see the world through different eyes. Like Tom, the writing has a fierce originality, tackling issues of otherness, difference and prejudice from an entirely novel perspective. A haunting book that charts the cost of freedom and the price of love. (The Guardian )
Cold Tom, an outstanding debut novel for 11-16 year olds. It spins British fairy folklore into new imaginative material that will resonate powerfully with teenagers. Prue skilfully intertwines the story of two half-families trying valiantly to create a new family where none was before. (The Sunday Times )
