""...The Significance Of Swans is a story of survival, hope, revenge and familial love... Lewis brings out an almost poetic quality to her novel, focusing on effective, haunting descriptions and complex emotional punches without overcomplicating them...""--Buzzmag ""A THOUGHT-provoking new novel... Rhiannon Lewis is a proven teller of good stories...""--Monmouthshire Beacon ""I thoroughly enjoyed this unusual novella and thought it was the perfect length - long enough to develop the themes hinted at in the shorter version from I am the Mask Maker and short enough to keep things moving at a steady pace.""-- ""SheReadsNovels.com""
