Extraordinary * Daily Mail *
A bit of Jasper Fforde, a bit of X-Files, and a lot of action -- Deborah Harkness
Outrageously good -- Lev Grossman
I really enjoy O'Malley's sense of humour.. it's a familiar mix of snark and squick with an ongoing question of who to trust, 4/5' * One More *
The writing is sublime... I love everything about this series... It's a fun, sometimes horrifying, sometimes heart-rending, sometimes funny, and always thrilling series' * Smart Bitches, Trashy Books *
This book was everything I hoped for, and worth the wait... O'Malley has an amazing imagination, and a smooth, dry style that makes the most implausible magic seem mundane, and the most horrible disaster an occasion for courage. Get it, read it, enjoy it' -- Robert Mcgrath
Laugh-out-loud hilarious... A book that's easy to like, set in a world that is easy to feel at home in, and delivered with an easy-going, tongue in cheek style' * Balthasar Books *
A masterful sequel to an already exceptional debut... At times gruesome, irreverent, hilarious, devastating, terrifying, and realistic. O'Malley knows exactly when to weave in moments of humour, and when to allow a character to step into another room to have a cry, and when to warn readers of an accidental weremoose' * Fantasy Book Review *
