Critics Review
For The Caravan at the Edge of Doom:
‘This is a book that combines the mundane with the otherworldly and the high stakes of a brilliant adventure story, all laced with an unapologetic light-hearted humour. . . With the beautiful, fitting and scene-setting black and white illustrations by Olia Muza, an endlessly funny protagonist and role model, and a mature discussion on more serious themes like familial relationships and handling the concept of death over the course of the book, it is exactly the kind of story I gravitated to when I was younger, and that still has a distinct charm today.’ The National
‘I loved the unique sense of humour’
