"Haunting"
"Stunning"
"A torrent of a book – take the plunge"
"This novel of spiritual desolation and redemption gathers such an awesome, tragic momentum that the fantastical aspects seem as crucial to the story as do the raging rivers, sheer gorges and imposing rainforests"
"Death of a River Guide is possessed of both a fierce, seething energy and a limpid, unexpected tranquillity"
