Rezensionen

"Feels like a magnificent episode of the Twilight Zone or Doctor Who - one that stays with you for being so eerily strange it gives you goosebumps" - Chris Soul on The Invasion of Crooked Oak

"A gruesome, gripping and chilling tale with frightful consequences. I love the twists and terrifying atmosphere that Dan creates." - Little Posts of Library Treasures, blog

"Prepare to have your spine well and truly tingled ... With a twisting, terrifying plot, King's wonderfully atmospheric black and white illustrations ... this is a terrific, fast-paced tale of three brave youngsters caught up in an out-of-this-world adventure. Expect thrills, chills and spills..." - Lancashire Evening Post

"The tension and fear factor are gradually turned up to the max by this experienced horror/science-fiction author ... there are many, 'What would you do?' moments, which would be interesting to discuss in class or small groups." - English 4-11
