I haven’t read something so original and immersive in a long time. On Silver Tides is a classic in the making and I loved every word" -- Katya Balen"Sure to be a future classic... A brilliant fantasy with folklore and mythological monsters woven into the narrative. Fans of Frances Hardinge and Katherine Rundell's Impossible Creatures will adore On Silver Tides" * The Bookseller, Book of the Month February 2024 *"I loved this book so much. It feels to me like a contemporary classic: thoughtful, literary, with clear and gorgeous prose, yet urgent and relevant. It touches painlessly and obliquely on our own troubled relationship with the environment, but above all it’s a great story with vivid, complex and lovable characters. The world-building reminded me of Susanna Clarke in its rich and playful inventiveness. I absolutely loved it and can’t wait to read more by Sylvia Bishop!" -- Alice Winn"On Silver Tides is a beautifully constructed book about the love of family and the importance of embracing what we don't understand. I was with Kelda through every triumph and betrayal, every hurt and heartbreak. Bishop's writing transforms Britain into a magical network of rivers, channels and lochs that will fill you with wonder" -- Ann Sei Lin
