Irish Times Top 30 Children's Books of 2009

'Excellent, dark teen novel' Irish Independent

Easons Book of the Month October 2009

'a satisfying read' CBI Bookfest Guide 2009

'Ireland’s answer to J.K. Rowling … at the forefront of Irish fantasy writing' Sunday Independent

'This is a book to be read, reread and treasured' Inis Magazine

'The Crowded Shadows more than fulfills the promise of The Poison Throne and the completed trilogy is likely to stand with the best of this genre … richly imagined cultures and dense, detailed style make her parallel Europe a compelling and utterly convincing creation and her mastery of storytelling and character will have readers reluctant to leave it' Iis Magazine

Irish author Celine Kiernan is back with book two of her excellent Moorhawke Trilogy, The Crowded Shadows is a cracking theatrical historical fantasy set in medieval Europe.' The Irish Independent

The brilliant follow up to one of my favorite debut novels from 2009 ... character driven, with wonderful dialogue and great depth ... breathtakingly powerful and always unpredictable. Booktopia January sci-fi and Fantasy Bookbuzz (full review here)
