What They're Saying

Critics Review

Carey writes with compassion and fire - strange and surprising and humane

As fresh as it is terrifying … It left me sighing with envious joy

Haunting, heartbreaking

If you only read one novel this year, make sure it’s this one - it’s amazing

Complex,heartbreaking, hopeful and intelligently written … Enigmatic and utterly gripping

Original, thrilling and powerful

Takes hold of you and doesn’t let go

Scary, tense and fast-paced … but with a heart-warming tenderness
