Industry Reviews

`an absolutely wonderful book - it is no wonder that McCaughrean is celebrated as one of the greatest living children's authors.' The Bookseller `...a tense, fast-moving adventure story, sustained to the very last page, with an inspiring sense of community spirit.' Financial Times `With its great depth and texture, its masterful dialogue and description it is the work of a great writer which will move readers to tears and laughter. I cannot recommend it strongly enough.' Times Educational Supplement `For a really good read, look no further than this excellent, unpredictable and engrossing novel from a genuine master of the imagination.' The Independent
