Critics Review

Beautifully written. Gripping . Guerdon is the city of my dreams

A ground breaking and extraordinary novel … Hanrahan has an astonishing imagination

Mind-blowingly stellar in every respect; full of seductive creativity, marvelously intelligent, innovative, and frankly revolutionary. This dark and enchanting debut contained no shortage of alluring madness and wondrous imagination that manifests itself gloriously within the pages. Fantasy readers, be wise and buy this book, because there’s simply nothing like it … I envision that The Gutter Prayer will not only win many readers’ hearts but also win multiple fantasy awards in the near future. Yes, it was THAT good. Read it. Thank me later

Employing an enviable skill with both plotting and prose, Gareth Hanrahan has in The Gutter Prayer woven an intricate and finely crafted web of compelling characters navigating a city rich in dark and original wonders. I await the sequel with the keenest anticipation.

A gripping tale that meshes beautifully with its fascinating, darkly inventive setting

An absolutely stunning debut. Insanely inventive and deeply twisted. I loved it! Highly recommended

The Gutter Prayer is captivating and complex. Guerdon is a city that seethes with history, horror, and hidden secrets, and Hanrahan’s assured style is reminiscent of China Mievelle in the best way possible

Beautifully written. Gripping. Guerdon is the city of my dreams
