"Brilliant."

"This is a stunning novella: cleverly-constructed, well-paced - and very informative. I read it in a single session and felt as if I'd been pulled through an emotional mangle."

"You can tell that Ms Trevithick was a fan of Roald Dahl when she was growing up. The stinky trolls in this story are reminiscent of the giants in The BFG and, if possible, even more revolting. Her strong authorial voice and witty prose will appeal to parents as much as children; I caught myself chortling out loud at least every other page."

"All in all this is a marvelous story, told well and simply unputdownable."
