Praise for Sea of Ghosts, book one of the Gravedigger Chronicles:

‘His invented world is one of the most bizarre, fascinating and dangerous it has been my pleasure to encounter. . the story grips like a vice, filled with mystery and action, and there is a rich vein of black humour running through the strangeness’ The Times, 'Endlessly imaginative and impressively ambitious, but it's also a hugely fun adventure story that keeps up a relentless pace, leaving you with a cliff-hanger ending that will have you gasping for the next book in double-quick time’ Sci-Fi-London.com, ‘Sea of Ghosts is wonderful meaty stuff from Mr Campbell again – he’s a true original . . . engages you from page one and never lets go’ Neal Asher, ‘Rampant imagination is allied with unusually rich writing.’ Morning Star, Sea of Ghosts is a highly entertaining novel highlighted by cinematic pacing, exhilarating action sequences, and unexpected moments of dark violence’ Fantasy Book Critic blog, ‘A fantasy that in both its conception and execution is vivid, bloody, enthralling and utterly atmospheric, the first of what should be a fantastic new series. Bravo’ BookGeeks.co.uk
