Recensione:

'A fantasy that does not flinch from its premise all the way to a satisfying conclusion ... The story pulled me under and carried me off with it.' ROBIN HOBB

‘The Bone Doll's Twin is a thoroughly engrossing new fantasy. It got its hooks into me on the first page, and didn't let loose until the last. I am already looking forward to the next instalment.’ GEORGE RR MARTIN

‘Original, well-written, and totally absorbing ... by turns poignant, spooky, and earthy ... a moving and thoroughly recommended read’ STARBURST
