Twelve Nights

A sinister literary debut combining action and fantasy. * Daily Express *If you love Philip Pullman or CS Lewis, you’ll love this dream-like read as much as we did. * Top of the Pops Magazine *It’s a great beginning. Kay’s a lovely protagonist. The jeopardy is strong and Zurcher’s use of language is beautiful. He’s a lyricist of an author which makes this not insubstantial novel quite easy to read. * Starburst Magazine *Packed full of a story that is bursting off the page and begging to be made into a Harry Potter like movie. This is one amazing book. * ThirteenFourteen *For keen readers looking for new worlds to immerse themselves. * Book Trust *Fantastic journeys, courageous exploits and dastardly deeds…an engrossing read. * Young Post *Takes the reader on an enthralling journey through the world of plotters and weavers, storytellers and imagination, in this sweeping, complex allegory about families and love * Reading Zone *
