Review
"It is really a cautionary tale about choice and the danger of nursing anger. This makes it a humane story that will help the cause of tolerance . . . It is written with passion, does not condescend and will appeal to teenagers who want to understand grown-up emotions" (The Sunday Times)
"Relentless in its pace . . . Devastatingly powerful" (Guardian)
"The story never flags, and characters develop . . . I repeatedly looked up from the pages, thinking "What would I do?" and this is the redeeming strength of Knife Edge - its moral heft" (Daily Telegraph)
"Malorie Blackman is writing a disturbing trilogy that should be read because it is important. And a gripping yarn as well" (School Librarian)
"Noughts & Crosses was brilliant and this sequel is as good, if not better . . . The reader is forced to confront issues of racism in our society in a unique way . . . but this is incidental as the tale is so compelling" (Carousel)
