Trade Review
like the Famous Five fused with HP Lovecraft [...] cosy and terrifying -- Suzi Feay * Financial Times *
Stroud's nerve-shredding ghouls, laconic hilarity and intelligent character development make him a must for fiction aficionados with an iron nerve -- Imogen Russell-Williams * Guardian *
this spine-chilling adventure is the perfect ghostly read -- Book Club * The Week Junior *
Brilliant as ever * Spectator *
All the books in the series have been excellent, but in The Creeping Shadow, Stroud manages to pile mystery on top of suspense, leaving me with the feeling that a year is far, far, too long to wait for the concluding part of a series that instantly shot to the very top of my reading pile. This is young adult writing of the very highest quality. -- Linda Wilson * Crime Review *
