Extraordinary . . . wildly impressive (Lucy Hughes-Hallett, BBC Radio 4)

Claire North's writing is terrific, smart and entertaining (Patrick Ness)

Wholly original and hauntingly beautiful (KIRKUS)

Reaffirms the passion and ambition that have made North such a consistently intriguing writer (LOCUS)

The End of the Day is [North's] most ambitious novel . . . Every one of the short 110 chapters is shaped with philosophical panache (GUARDIAN)

Poetic and imaginative . . . A thoroughly engaging and astute read (SCIFINOW)

A beautiful, if occasionally uncomfortable, read that resists being labeled with any particular genre (LIBRARY JOURNAL)

An exciting voice in contemporary fantasy . . . North adroitly sets the scenes and enlivens them with compelling, ironic dialogue, and she keeps the surprises coming until the very end (SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE)

Claire North is a true original, a master of ingenious plotting and feats of imagination (Alex Marwood, author of THE WICKED GIRLS)
