Review
'the work of a writer at the height of her powers' Guardian. 'a beautifully crafted novel that leads you seamlessly from the real world into the otherworld' undiscoveredscotland. 'This skilful weaving of old folk traditions with modern urban myth makes The Silver Bough a fascinating, wistful and intriguing tale that cannot fail to satisfy any lover of fantasy' Piper at the Gates of Fantasy. 'a loveliness of both enthusiasm and complexity' Scotland on Sunday. 'a cleverly written piece of fantasy fiction that manages to be creepy, gripping, charmingly upbeat and romantic, all at the same time' The Times. 'Tuttle has a keen eye for details of place and a sympathetic ear for the nuances of her characters' moods' SFX. 'If you are looking for something different, with a little bit of history and a little bit of magic then this is the book for you' Book Chick City.
