PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Andrew Caldecott is a KC, an occasional playwright and author of the bestselling Rotherweird trilogy, Rotherweird, Wyntertide and Lost Acre. Simul, the sequel to Momenticon, will publish in 2024.
A history-tragic-comedy all rolled into one, Rotherweird is intricate and crisp, witty and solemn: a book not unlike other books, but with special and dangerous properties. Line by line, silent and adroit, it opens a series of trap-doors in the reader's imagination * Hilary Mantel, two-time Man Booker prize winner, on Rotherweird * Baroque, Byzantine and beautiful - not to mention bold. An enthralling puzzle picture of a book * M.R. CAREY, author of the bestselling The Girl With All The Gifts, on ROTHERWEIRD * Compelling * THE GUARDIAN on ROTHERWEIRD * Magnificent * MIDNIGHT BLUE on WYNTERTYDE * Darkly hypnotic * SUNDAY TELEGRAPH on WYNTERTYDE * A triumphant final volume to what has been a constantly surprising piece of modern British fantasy. Part Gormenghast, part Monty Python, part mythology, part Terry Pratchett, a little bit steampunk . . . this series, its setting and its tone is totally unique and thoroughly enjoyable and should be celebrated as such * PILE BY THE BED on LOST ACRE * Caldecott's prose is very readable, and his world very inventive * SFX MAGAZINE *
