One of the great page-turners in English literature

I can distinctly remember handling the book as if it might somehow give me, a boy in Africa, magical access to the African adventures it contained. It still does now. I need only pick up this book and, like the door to Solomon's treasure chamber, a mass of stone rises from the floor and vanishes into the rock above

Winterson's belief in love, beauty, and most of all, language, is evangelical and redemptive...it is timely and exciting to read

Suspenseful . . . I would recommend this book to anyone

A brutally visual world . . . vivid, motivated characters each with a heartbreaking history . . . thrilling and devastating . . . a true epic.

Gemmell's volcanic imagination . . . erupts into pyrotechnics of description and unstoppable lava flows of intrigue, sweeping us along to the white-hot conclusion.

A plethora of well-defined, superbly-executed characters . . . I found myself absolutely hooked . . . there is an ever-growing sense of tension. Even before the final, inevitable, showdown you get the feeling that things are going to get bloody and not everyone is going to make it out of this alive . . .this is engrossing stuff that's expertly executed.

Demands your complete and total attention . . . pulls together at the end in a gripping climax and wonderful multi dimensional characters . . . a new and very powerful voice in the world of fantasy.
Highly Recommended.

A sweeping novel of great power.

Don Tillman is my favourite new protagonist in all of contemporary fiction. This man will exasperate, delight and immerse you in a world so original, in a story so compelling, I defy you not to read through the night. Glorious

Written in a superbly pitch-perfect voice, The Rosie Project had me cheering for Don on every page. I'm madly in love with this book! Trust me, you will be, too

Charming and delightful, The Rosie Project kept me riveted long into the night. I was so enamoured of it that I read it in a single, marathon sitting

One of the quirkiest, most adorable novels I've come across... Don Tillman is such a fantastic, lovable, geeky character that you're cheering for him from page one... Thoughtful and fun, very different and utterly charming - a brilliant first novel

An endearing, funny book, a quirky love story, and a must read for 2013

As you start reading this extraordinary work, there's no doubt that unlikely hero Don Tillman is about to take the world if not by storm, then certainly by rational argument... Laugh-out loud funny, poignant and so ingenious and compelling you feel as if you want to jump into the world of the novel and join in

If you believe in fate and romcoms, you'll enjoy this

Irresistibly charming, genuinely funny and cleverly plotted

Literature's equivalent of TV's Sheldon Cooper from The Big Bang Theory...Charming

Touching and rewarding

Prime deck-chair material

The best, most honestly told love story I've read in a long time

Marvellous. Don Tillman is as awkward and confusing a narrator as he is lovable and charming
