Media Reviews
Praise for Tales of Terror from the Tunnel's Mouth: 'Subversive and chilling ... The mounting sense of danger is built up with great subtlety' School Librarian 'The third in this excellent series of spooky yarns. The first was great, the second was even better but this latest outdoes them both in terms of sheer horrific thrills and slickness of storytelling. Priestley is at the top of his game here and he is master of the chilling scare' The Edinburgh Geekzine Praise for Tales of Terror from the Black Ship: 'A fantastic page-turner, with a really scary ending' Independent on Sunday Praise for Uncle Montague's Tales of Terror 'Fabulous illustrations ... The gradual build-up of horror ... is exquisitely done. My insides were still untangling themselves hours after I had closed the book' Sunday Telegraph
