Reviews

For readers who are attracted to epic but not quite ready for the weightiness of Tolkien, this is a perfect entrée; for those who have loved or will love Pratchett, it’s simply a must read.
*Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books*

Only a writer with a masterstroke of imagination could place an entire empire of goodies and baddies within the fronds of a carpet
*Daily Mail*

The perfect starting place for young readers . . . seasoned Pratchett fans will just revel in his wit, his subversion of tropes and his sense of humanity.
*Kirkus*

A unique piece of high fantasy . . . Now very witty and politically aware in its revised version with the new ending
*Vector*

The story is inventive in its carefully worked-out central conceit, often very funny, and dotted with some genuinely scary bits.
*Publishers Weekly*
