"Another Life is a beautiful and thought-provoking meditation on the meaning and purpose of life, seen through the lens of a mystery story steeped in English folklore..The book’s narrative voice and its depiction of details from the natural world are outstanding." British Fantasy Society;'Owen Knight blends a sense of mystery and ancient spirituality, with profound questions about personal identity. The narrative interweaves dreams, memories and present reality, as the reader is led forward towards the book's revelatory conclusion.' Dr Mel Thompson, best-selling philosophy author;'A skillfully written story that will have you thinking deeply about the meaning of your life, and life as a whole.' Julie Stock, author of contemporary feel-good romance;'I enjoyed the folklore and the mystical elements of this book and I could have happily read a whole story about them...The history behind The Green Man was of particular interest and I have visited the Cotswolds on a number of occasions, so the setting was very pleasing. Recommended to those who enjoy folklore and mysticism.' Rosie Amber, Leading UK Book Reviewer & Blogger; 'Owen Knight manages to create a sense of mystery that reminded me of The Wickerman. Another Life is an ambitious exploration of fate, which postulates a connection between destiny and the "Old Religion", paganism and the Green Man.' Simon Michael, best-selling Crime Author;"ANOTHER LIFE is a very English amalgam of 'The Wicker Man' and 'It's a Wonderful Life'; humming with subtle sorcery." BRADYONBOOKS
