A fast-paced and quirky magical tale . . . Bell writes with great verve and imagination
Fiona Noble, The Bookseller
A wonderfully intriguing mystery . . . Uncommonly good!
Chris Bradford, author of THE YOUNG SAMURAI series
The Crooked Sixpence moves at the speed of magic . . . peeling away the mundane surface of the world to reveal something richer and deeper. Bell's world is part Tim Burton, part J.K. Rowling . . . This is a terrific debut
Soman Chainani, author of THE SCHOOL FOR GOOD AND EVIL
Weird, whacky and utterly wonderful. Go to Lundinor. You won't ever want to come back
Joshua Khan, author of SHADOW MAGIC
This is a fast-paced and exciting adventure, featuring a Victorian-style otherworld, that will appeal to fans of the Harry Potter and Chrestomanci series . . . the book will appeal to both girls and boys. This is an extremely enjoyable read and a well-deserving addition to the magical fantasy genre
Andrea Rayner, booksforkeeps.co.uk
Lots of fun, full of character, and great for the imagination
BookTrust
The Crooked Sixpence is a wonderful addition to our school library, and one that I can't wait to recommend
Anna Tomlinson, TES
An auspicious trilogy opener
