Review

"Superb piece of story-telling . . . Readers of Jan Mark and Philip Pullman will consume it with delight - with the pleasing prospect of its two sequels" (Lindsey Fraser Guardian)

"This first novel is an ambitious fantasy saga . . . After a dramatic opening scene, the pace of the book slows and then builds to an exciting and disturbing climax" (The School Librarian)

"While high fantasy, it has the claustrophobic feel of a political and moral thriller that constantly surprises your expectations" (Books for Keeps)

"This outstanding first novel is extraordinary and deserves to become a classic of children's literature. Serious and thought-provoking, it is very well written, substantial and evocative" (Inis)

"An exciting and absorbing experience" (writeaway.co.uk)
