Critics Review
this gripping, immersive tale makes for a deeply satisfying culmination to Welsh’s contribution to the apoca-lit genre – Guardian
A vivid, action-packed journey through a post-apocalyptic world. Terrifying and touching in equal measure, the novel is a love story, an adventure, a road movie, a family drama and a murder mystery rolled into one - The Times Scotland
Welsh has delivered a heart-breaking, thrilling, frightening page-turner of a chiller … No Dominion, like Welsh’s other novels, is tensely written and character led. At times, it is unsettling, but at its heart, it is a story of hope and survival. Welsh taps into the fear of what a world is chaos would be like and that fear bursts out of every page. Please turn this trilogy into a series, Louise. I want more! - CrimeSquadRecently she’s been dishing up a tremendous postapocalyptic trilogy … Most impressive is Welsh’s evocative and sharp prose, and her keen observation of the darkest recesses of the human psyche, the stuff that bubbles to the top in times of stress and hardship. It’s unpleasant reading at times but always compelling - Big IssueIt’s a thriller that thrills, but it’s also a platform for a wry, spry discussion of civilisation, urbanism and connectedness, human and environmental - Sunday HeraldA gripping debate about politics and ethics … brilliantly uncomfortable reading - Scotland on SundayFast-paced and unrelenting - NationalI was hooked from page one of No Dominion. This is a cracking end to a trilogy and I would highly recommend it - Booklover’s BoudoirThanks to its disconcerting plausibility and its solid heart, the gripping, immersive No Dominion makes for a deeply satisfying culmination to Welsh’s contribution to the apoca-lit genre - GuardianAbout The Author
