Description
Book SynopsisThe Devil's Dance transcends categories. It is an exciting, original story, full of menace and very moving. The story is told in turn by two teenagers, Jake and Samuel. It begins with a dream, like a musical overture, which contains the themes to be developed in the rest of the work and describes events that took place two or three hundred years
Trade Review"John Symons has done it again. This is a complex and deeply rewarding work. But don't let that put you off! I loved the menace of the book and its tranquil resolution. I think it is a really great book. Like A Tear in the Curtain, it is about children, could be enjoyed by older children and is an absorbing read for adults. It also raises several important issues." William Wood, www.williamwoodswords.co.uk From a review of Stranger on the Shore 'The quiet courage of a family in dire adversity could not be better demonstrated - John Symons describes the tragedies that struck at the heart of a poor but devoted Cornish family. Humanity and the valour of the human spirit shine from every page.' This England
