Praise for The Night Watch: This modern day mythical fantasy is Anne Rice on an epic scale, a hugely imagined world... a chiller thriller from cold of Russia, this one's been selling like hot cakes around the world.
Sunday Sport
So good that the film feels like a trailer for it
Time Out
JK Rowling, Russian style...arguably Russia's richest and most famous literary talent of the moment... [a] cracking read, owing more to Rowling or Philip Pullman than it does to the horror genre...surprisingly readable and addictive...it relies on suspense and psychological drama and a good dose of humour - rather than blood and guts.'
Daily Telegraph
When a particular kind of story, heavily based in one culture, gets transferred into a culture distinctly different, something magical happens... Something modern, new and distinctly creepy...continues to work because the magic is rooted in the realities of modern Russia... Inventive, sardonic, and imbued with a surprising the sense that, for this author and his audience, much of this stuff is new-minted.'
