Critics Review

Extremely interesting and riveting … will keep you hooked to the very end. Hair has managed to pack horror, reincarnation, mythology, ritual of Sati and history all in one book! - thebookloversreview.blogspot.com on The Pyre

Riveting! Like its reincarnated heroes, I was drawn again and again to David Hair’s gripping, blood-soaked tale - Chris Bradford, author of Young Samurai on The Pyre

The Pyre was genuinely dark and unsettling … The story-telling within the novel is outstanding, - Historical Novel Society on The Pyre

David Hair did an amazing job at recreating the Ravana legend … great tension and character development … This was a fantastically written novel which will appeal to readers outside the fantasy genre too. A 5 star read!’ - Old Victorian Quill on The Pyre

If you like fantasy influenced by mythology and would like to explore beyond the well-known Western mythologies, The Pyre is an excellent departure point - Fantastical Librarian on The Pyre

I enjoyed the characters … [I] was sorry to say goodbye to the cast - It Puts the Blog in the Basket

A riveting book [that] will keep you hooked to the very end. Hair has managed to pack horror, reincarnation, mythology [and] history all in one book! - TheBookloversReview.

A fantastically written tale … An amazing story set in a magnificent background, it had me hooked from the very first page. The last half of the book literally had me on the edge of my chair, rooting for the characters in both timelines and wondering how the history would unfold and if it would repeat itself - Draumr Kopa
