A steampunky tale of ambition, pursuit and revenge. --The Guardian
A gem of a book. --Katherine Woodfine, author of The Clockwork Sparrow
A glittering clockwork treasure. --Piers Torday
What if Earth were full of clockwork creatures instead of monsters? Cogheart goes beyond steam-punk to imagine a world as weirdly inventive as Philip Pullman's Clockwork and Ridley Scott's Blade Runner... Marvellous fun for nine-plus readers. --New Statesman
An instant classic... full of thrills, spills, and mechanical foxes. --Down the Rabbit Hole
A magnificent, standout modern classic, an exhilarating epic that offers fun, adventure and pure escapism for anyone aged between nine and ninety. Not be missed! --Lancashire Evening Post
Easily one of the best I have read in the [steampunk] genre... Fast-paced and full of unrelenting action and adventure. --BookZone4Boys
A really wonderful steampunk story that reminded me of Philip Reeve's Mortal Engines series. It's pacy and exciting, and I loved the world that Peter has built. --Robin Stevens
Vivid and gripping...a beautifully-drawn world and delicate detailing, as finely wrought as a watch's workings. --Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author of Girl of Ink and Stars
Fantastical, immersive and yet with real heart. --Serendipity Reviews

An absorbing read, Cogheart is the perfect book to get wrapped up in. --Carousel
< br>Cogheart is a triumph. Its heroes will grab children's imaginations and they will wish to be either the brave and feisty Lily or the gentle son of a watchmaker, Robert. --Be Better
