Media Reviews

Cirque Du Freak
...fast-paced and compelling book which leaves the reader hungry for more.
JK Rowling

`Brilliant, macabre tale.'
Guardian

I read Cirque Du Freak last week. I loved it. I love the way you manage to juggle the funny with the unpleasant, the affection with the hurt. It's
great story-telling.
Roddy Doyle

The Vampire's Assistant
The Vampire's Assistant blazes a thrilling, gruesome trail through a fascinating plot.
