Recenzje

'I read a lot of very good fiction but this novel - so startling and thrilling, so packed with such wonderful characters - is the best novel I've read in a long time' Roddy Doyle, author of Paddy Clarke Ha Ha Ha

'First novels are often praised for an author's potential, but Kingdomtide displays a talent fully realized. Cloris Waldrip's trek through the wilderness after a plane crash is suspenseful from start to finish, but as the lives of her potential rescuers are revealed, the novel also moves through the even deeper wilderness of the human heart. Rye Curtis is a writer of exceptional talent' Ron Rash, New York Times bestselling author of Serena

'Rye Curtis's debut novel is an astonishing work. His powerful and convincing characters are at risk in a harsh and beautiful landscape in which the best and worst are revealed, and nothing is as it initially seems. Kingdomtide is at once a page-turner and a meditation on the complexity of the human experience and spirit' Daniel Woodrell, author of Winter's Bone and The Maid's Version
