Pratchett’s ear for dialogue is superb … His deep feeling for landscape, animals, kindness and courage make his adventures deeply satisfying as well as clever * The Times *
Oodles of dry wit, imagination and shrewdly observed characters * Independent on Sunday *
A great Pratchett strength is the sense that if the jokes … were dropped there would still be a good, engaging fantasy thriller here * Independent *
Fantastically inventive and humorous fantasy adventure. Fans will be sky high * The Sunday Times *
Funny, typically humorous … A must for any Terry Pratchett fan … With its witty and slightly confusing plot-twists and hilarious dialogue, this is, without doubt, another great children’s book * Bristol Evening Post *
Suitable for the 10 year old as well as the trendy student * Derby Evening Telegraph *
Witty, pacy … An ideal introduction to Pratchett’s work * South Wales Argus *
Witty and daring * Teen Titles *
