Reviews
Not just a good story, but one of the greatest - beautifully told. * The Times *
Tobin combines the sensuality of Angela Carter with a profound feeling for a violent unstable and fascinating landscape... this world pulses with subversion and unexpected passion. * Saturday Telegraph *
Tobin's novels are dark and bloody, sensual and mythic. They are also set in a past that, thanks to her skill at inhabiting her characters, seems often more immediate than the world around us... * Observer *
A lyrically written epic inspired by the beauty and history of that island, and the rich world of Norse mythology that infuses it... * Sunday Telegraph *
Triumphant * Time Out *
