Praise for The Night Watch
JK Rowling, Russian style.... [a] cracking read, owing more to Rowling or Philip Pullman than it does to the horror genre... Surprisingly readable and addictive...it relies on suspense and psychological drama and a good dose of humour - rather than blood and guts.

Magical... Modern, new and distinctly creepy... the magic is rooted in the realities of modern Russia. Inventive, sardonic, and imbued with a surprising the sense that, for this author and his audience, much of this stuff is new-minted.

So good that the film feels like a trailer for it

[a] dazzling fantasy

Nihilistic, frank, brutal, embarrassing, depressing, funny and intensely gripping all at once

Cameron reveals a darker edge to her writing by capturing the frustration and pains of obsession with dense detail. Cameron's story of self-discovery shows just how lost you can get, and her perfect references to the 80s and Australian culture pull you in head-first

A novel which at one stroke puts her unquestionably among the great masters of the genre . . . as spine-chilling . . . as anything Edgar Allan Poe dreamed up.

The Bell is not frightening, precisely, but it offers that uneasy sensation of being suspended, somehow, between what is familiar and what is strange… a kind of hot, dreamlike muddle… The Bell has, in the 60 years since its publication, lost none of its power to disrupt

A masterpiece of Gothic suspense

So eerie, so disturbing, and not a wasted word, it has the kind of economy I wish I knew how to achieve

For me, it is that unique and dreamlike book ... that stands as her masterpiece

We Have Always Lived in the Castle is Jackson's masterpiece ... Stunning

Manages the ironic miracle of convincing the reader that a house inhabited by a lunatic, a poisoner, and a pyromaniac is a world more rich in sympathy, love and subtlety than the world outside

A witch's brew of eerie power and startling novelty

A marvellous elucidation of life ... a story full of craft and full of mystery

Compulsory reading for anyone who has a pig, an aunt - or a sense of humour!

The Wodehouse wit should be registered at Police HQ as a chemical weapon

Witty and effortlessly fluid. His books are laugh-out-loud funny

The funniest writer ever to put words to paper

The greatest comic writer ever

P.G. Wodehouse wrote the best English comic novels of the century

Sublime comic genius

You don't analyse such sunlit perfection, you just bask in its warmth and splendour
