Review
An exuberant noirish romp that also speaks of a loveless childhood * Financial Times, Books of the Year * This summer I can wholeheartedly recommend Lisa McInerney's novel The Blood Miracles, the devastatingly brilliant follow-up to her prize-winning debut The Glorious Heresies. In my inexpert opinion, McInerney's hero Ryan Cusack is quickly becoming one of Irish fiction's iconic protagonists * Sally Rooney, Irish Times * An exuberant noirish romp that also speaks of the sad fallout of a loveless childhood * Financial Times * Lisa McInerney is a preposterously gifted writer, Amis-like, almost Shakespearean, in her ability to riff, refresh and amuse * New Statesman * A hard-edged, gritty novel with terrific tempo and good characterisation . . . McInerney is a pacy storyteller at the top of her game * Daily Express * The plot's a slippery snake of dodgy deals and deadly double crosses, with a series of handbrake turns at the end. It's standard gangster stuff, spiked into originality by the chemical kick of McInerney's prose * The Spectator * Vivid, compelling and moving * Observer * Lively, entertaining, salty and funny * Irish Examiner * Delectable and vigorously entertaining * Irish Independent * McInerney writes with enviable verve, swagger and humour * Mail on Sunday * Trainspotting meets Goodfellas . . . McInerney writes with delicious irreverence and her fiction in this book has a fast, filmic quality * Evening Standard * An addictive read * Guardian * If you like Trainspotting, Peaky Blinders, Guy Ritchie and Quentin Tarantino then this is a rackety, kinetic, hold-your-attention-at-gunpoint book * The Times * Lisa Mcinerney is a writer busily combining the traditions of hardcore Irish crime writing with the kind of fast-talking foul-mouthed wit and gentle good humour that readers will recall from the work of Roddy Doyle, and producing popular state-of-the-nation novels as a consequence * Times Literary Supplement * The narration is brisk and slick, the dialogue fizzing with acerbic wisecracking * Literary Review *
