It's as camp as the proverbial row of tents, but Clary tells a very good story. Funny and absolutely charming.

The comedian's debut novel sold by the bucketload, and this new one is even better - a darkly funny and deeply rude triumph

Julian Clary combines crime and comedy in his outrageous new novel...brilliantly funny and touching

Consistently triumphant...a brilliant romp

The Devil In Disguise is a sheer delight from start to finish.

I blame Clary for the bags under my eyes and my mumbling late-night mantra of "just one more chapter"....it's Showgirls meets Queer As Folk meets Baby Jane. Wonderful.

Absurd, funny and classic Clary... Clary is witty, derisive, awful, solemn, tender, camp and definitely memorable; Devil in Disguise is, in turn, all of these things, which is quite an achievement.

One of the best Swedish crime novels of all time

This is not only a compelling crime story to be read without stopping until the last page. It is not only an unforgettable tale with a ferocious and bitter unexpected ending. It is much more. This is a masterpiece

A teeth-gritting political thriller... Authentic with silent anger, tough and utterly haunting

Tom Benn's debut novel is a long overdue good thing in many senses... and there is much to recommend, not least Benn's sturdy grip on vernacular... What's more , he's a good writter of action - a scene in the top room of a nightclub on Deansgate early in the novel is particularly good

The Doll Princess is a promising, foul-mouthed debut in which gangsters and good guys fight for supremacy in a Manchester that resembles a war zone

immerse yourself in the language and the rhythm of the narrative and you're in for a fast and consuming ride through dark territory

a crime novel unlike any other; the voices of real people can be heard throughout its pages

It is bursting with classic Gothic horror motifs and Susan Hill is a master of atmospheric descriptions. She evokes so cleverly the decrepit Eel Marsh House, the mention of its name enough to make the locals pause, their faces darken in unspoken wariness… The Woman in Black gives a thrilling sense of unease and provides just the right level of things that go bump in the night for a spine-tingling good read.

This spine-tingling novel… will certainly keep your nerves jangling

An excellent ghost story...magnificently eerie...compulsive reading

She writes with great power, authentically chilling

One of the most popular British ghost stories of modern times
