Reviews for Hell´s Bells: A Samuel Johnson Adventure: 2
A demonic, darkly comic tale . . . satisfyingly peppered with science, history and amusing footnotes on everything from St Thomas Aquinas to quantum theory, and will go down well with readers of Eoin Colfer and Lemony Snicket.
Daily Telegraph
Brilliant. I loved every word of it. John has found a voice that compares favourably with Stephen King and Monty Python which is not an easy trick.
Eoin Colfer Destined to be another runaway success appealing to both young adults and their parents alike.
