Moving and thought-provoking novel * Maximum Shelf * This book is nothing short of a masterpiece. * The Bookbag * evocative and moving * Garth Nix * Moving and long lasting, this is rich storytelling, and is probably Susan Cooper's finest work so far -- Marcus Sedgwick * Guardian * GHOST HAWK is the work of a writer with great imaginative power and long-practised narrative skill. I was swept up in the story, shocked, moved, and enthralled - and completely convinced by the historical background. I haven't read anything better for a long time. * Philip Pullman *
