New York Times
<b>[An] enormously compelling book… </b>The range of subjects <i>The Wolves of Eternity </i>explores is fascinating
Sunday Times
Casts an existential spell…<b>captivating</b>… Big themes — the cosmos, death and resurrection — are amplified through ghostly visitations, doppelgänger lives and the question of what, if anything, lies beyond human existence
Financial Times
<b>Compelling</b>
Telegraph ****
The nature and possibility of immortality is a recurring theme, and digressions abound — communicating trees, broken families, Chernobyl, death, etc. But by sticking close to his characters, Knausgaard addresses those heady topics with<b> an easy-going grace</b>
LA Times
<b>Compulsively readable...</b>Knausgaard remains one of the great chroniclers of the moment-by-moment experience of life
Washington Post
<b>An intelligent, expansive novel</b>
i
<b>Immersive… It is so engrossing and entertaining </b>that I crammed in its 800 pages like a glutton devouring a box of chocolates
Spectator
<b>Knausgaard, master of fiction</b> as an inquiry into the self, now revives fiction as an inquiry into the cosmos, re-enchanting the latter with those <b>beguiling </b>secrets science had stolen from it
Guardian
<b>I read <i>The Morning Star</i> compulsively, and stayed awake all night after finishing it</b>.
