Early reader feedback:
'I absolutely adore this book! Lots of great characters, tons of action and pace. It's fantastic... I can't stop thinking about it.' – Kath Middleton, Author and UKCBC Admin 'Will Patching has done it again...[he] cleverly lays out tidbits of information throughout the novel as the story unfolds keeping you wanting to turn the pages to the climax of the book. I found myself getting mildly annoyed when real life (i.e. visitors and phone calls) interrupted my reading pleasure. Another exceptionally good read from this author.' – Rick Asker, retired UK police officer 'I read it till I fell asleep and then finished it when I woke. I have only ever done that with two other authors … Stephen King and Mervyn Peake.' – Barry Brown 'Congratulations! You did it again. This novel is gripping, intriguing, excellently written and your theme "envy" is very clear and well developed… For me you're kind of a modern day Charles Dickens.' – Barbara Tsipouras, Reading Experience Blog |
