Review:
Acclaim for The Glass Books of the Dream Eaters:
Fantastic. Somewhere between Dickens, Sherlock Holmes and Rider Haggard. I was in seventh heaven (Kate Mosse, author of Labyrinth)
A page-turner, a rollicking ride. As stupendous as it is stupefying (Giles Foden Guardian)
An erotically charged, rip-roaring adventure (Daily Mail)
Extraordinary. A feat of literary imagination. I cannot recall ever having read a novel comprising so much breaking and entering, spying through keyholes, jumping over walls, hiding in shadows and listening out for footsteps, nor one with so many miraculous escapes (Daily Telegraph)
Think of The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes: its lurid plots, its murky pea-soupers. Now, apply the production values of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, commission a re-write by the Marquis de Sade . . . A ripping yarn (The London Paper)
