Review

Will keep you awake late into the night * SFX * Original, richly imagined and powerfully told * Guardian * So gripping you'll want to read late into the night; so terrifying you shouldn't -- Simon Mayo, the Radio 2 Book Club At once chilling and soulful, this hauntingly powerful tale weaves together the best elements of the psychological thriller, fantasy horror, and historical fiction. Stephen Lloyd Jones has penned a deeply inventive, dazzling debut novel * Eliot Pattison, author of Edgar Award-winning The Skull Mantra * I loved this book -- Marcus Sakey, author of Brilliance I have never read a book with such frenzied impatience. The String Diaries is unputdownable. Stephen Lloyd Jones has written a debut novel as frightening and layered as Elizabeth Kostova's The Historian and as clever and riveting as Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code -- Benjamin Percy, author of Red Moon With The String Diaries, Stephen Lloyd Jones has created a new mythology of the monstrous to rival Stoker's or Shelley's. Grounded in the real world and populated by characters we believe in, this is a book of magic for the doubtful, a fantastic tale for skeptics, at once transporting and convincing -- Andrew Pyper, author of The Demonologist Reading The String Diaries made me feel, in the best sense, like a child again. Nothing was more important than the fate of Stephen Lloyd Jones's courageous and very human heroine Hannah Wilde. Meals went uncooked, bills went unpaid, as I waited to find out if she would win freedom for herself and her daughter against the forces of darkness. I was scared, enthralled and amazed by this stunning debut -- Margot Livesey, author of The Flight of Gemma Hardy The String Diaries is an engrossing, mind-bending supernatural tale, and Stephen Lloyd Jones is as exciting a new voice as I've come across in some time, a writer who understands what makes the pulse race -- Michael Koryta, author of Those Who Wish Me Dead
