Review:
"It's Pinocchio meets Candide meets Kubrick doing funny... Twisted but clever.... the action reaches out and squirts you in the eye." --Mark Moyes, Rue-Morgue magazine
"Whistles comes across as one of the strongest and most instantly winning and winsome dark fables I've read since Johnny the Homicidal Maniac, with a similar level of stark and unexpected horror, but a heftier dose of heart and honest character evolution than even that aforementioned classic managed to achieve." --Dave Baxter, Brokenfrontier.com
