Delaney's mastery of suspense will grip even reluctant readers with his dramatic, beautifully paced prose.
- Amanda Craig, The Times
. . . ideal for the reader who has outgrown Harry Potter. Be warned, these books are seriously scary . . . Beautifully produced and consistently surprising the weird and wonderful <i>Wardstone Chronicles</i> are an annual treat.
