What They're Saying

Critics Review

[A] beautiful book. Gripping, engaging, and absolutely worth the time it takes to burrow yourself into its reality. I can’t recommend it highly enough - Seanan McGuire (aka Mira Grant), author of FEED

Narrator Koli’s inquisitive mind and kind heart make him the perfect guide to Carey’s immersive, impeccably rendered world … Readers will be thrilled to know the next two books will be published in short order. A captivating start to what promises to be an epic post-apocalyptic fable - KIRKUS

Koli embarks on a journey as perilous as it is enlightening … Enthralling - GUARDIAN

I loved this. Koli’s world is a visionary future where humanity is going backwards at speed. It’s a thought-provoking and deeply engaging story and although nature is in revolt against humankind, being a Mike Carey book, it’s also profoundly and doggedly humane - C. A. Fletcher, author of A BOY AND HIS DOG AT THE END OF THE WORLD

An ingenious, dizzily provocative novel … Carey invents a fantastic far-future world, finding humanity in unlikely places - Helen Marshall, World Fantasy Award-winning author
